Cho Sun OK Korean Restaurant
4200 N. Lincoln Ave
Chicago, IL 60618
Located on the corner of Lincoln and Berteau.
Mandoo- Comes with special Korean soy sauce mixture. Mandoo are pan fried pork dumplings with a savory vegetable mixture while the special Korean sauce has some of the same great vegetables and also vinegar and sesame seeds to give it that authentic Korean zest.
Mul Naegn Myeon- Buckweat Noodles in Cold Beef Broth. Usually also has shredded cucumbers and a hard-boiled egg.
Kimchi Chigae- One of Samantha’s timeless favorites. Best when served in the harsh cold of Korean winter, but Chicago summers are fine too. This has kimchi, beef, tofu, green onion, and a lot of spices in the broth. It is served boiling in its cauldron to maintain the perfect mixture upon arrival.
Side dishes typical of Korean cuisine.
Overall, this place is a favorite of ours. The restaurant itself is nicely set-up, small, but welcoming. The waitresses could be your Aunties (if you were Korean). There’s no friendly small talk, but the service is quick and simple.
Cho Sun Ok is BYOB.
Prices per entre vary between $6.95- $13.95.
