B-C-Don't
I’ve heard people refer to BCD Tofu House as the McDonald’s of Tofu Houses in general. Now this could be a bad thing or a good thing depending on how you feel about McDonald’s. I decided to go with an open mind, although I mentally prepared myself for food that might probably be just ok.
Lo and behold, it was just ok, if not disappointing. The panchan was pretty uninspired with the fried fish, more chewy than crispy and with kimchi that was downright bland. Both the pork bulgogi and beef kalbi had at least some flavor and a little bit of caramelization from being grilled, but both meat dishes were too oily.
As for the Original Premium Tofu with Seafood that I ordered with a medium spice, I might as well have ordered the “white” version of this soup, which comes without any spices at all. I was expecting some heat, but got embers instead and maybe, just one ember at that, plus the soup itself seemed a bit watery. The tofu, which was soft, maybe even a little mushy was by no means close to being silky. Definitely no repeat visit for me.
