Why Korean Food Is So Healthy 🇰🇷 | Korean Restaurant Taste Test at Yesan

Welcome Hey, welcome back, we're the Three Musketeers and recently we've been trying to eat healthier But we also crave something that is comforting and we discovered this restaurant here. Yes, Sun They specialize in using organic ingredients right now. We're in Palisades Park, New Jersey at Yishan They are known for their handmade tofu stone pot rice and their rich bone broth. Later in this video I'm gonna try to teach these two people a little bit of Korean dance. Oh nice costume Jisung. Yeah. Thank you I saw your Korean dance. Looking forward to it. Yeah, I gotta teach my teacher Let's go take a seat and check out the menu. Let's go. Korean restaurant Yishan is Lishan. Li is a manor and San is a mountain. Lishan? Oh, one thing is actually the crazy selling point. Yo, during the breakfast hours is less than $10 That is actually crazy and they open up at 6 a.m. Wow, if I live around here I definitely gonna come for breakfast. It's too cheap. Come on. Yeah, there's a lot of a very traditional Korean dishes here, right Jisung? Uh-huh. Okay guys, we basically just ordered everything on the menu that is special here I'm gonna try it all out and tell you if it's worth it to get it or not Okay, we gotta thank Yishan for this. Sponsoring this video and give me a yes sign. This Korean restaurant You have to speak in Korean, not Chinese. How do you say thank you? Thank you for the meal and the first dish that we're gonna start with is this dumpling and mushroom hotpot It's $34.99 Okay, traditional costume looks cool But the only thing is not not practical for filming and eating. Do you guys have a good chopstick skills? No, I have a good chopstick skills. Man who can't fry with chopstick accomplish anything Well, what kind of chopstick skills is this? Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Come on. Come on You just said you're good at chopstick skills What is that? You broke all the noodles By the way, I heard that this is a handmade noodles and dumplings Usually the restaurant don't like to make a handmade dumplings because I guess too much work. Korean manner before you eat What do you say? Dumpling is good. Slow down Jisung. Really good. Whoa Definitely has a lot of flavor and we just asked the waiter what's in it. It's a beef pork There's chives, green onions and vermicelli and it's really really flavorful. So what do you want to try next? You try this? Actually, I really want to try this. Hand fried fish, mushrooms and just meat, shrimp and oysters. Oh That's as you mentioned the soy sauce. Mm-hmm That brings back my childhood too. And I remember at that time it was like $3-$4 And I go there every day and it's just like I was picking up and eat without rice or anything. Jisung's childhood dish Let's go for it So actually it tastes really good and I feel a little bit Emotional. I'm saying it's really good Like really good. Mm-hmm. Really? This fish is like very succulent like tender. I'll definitely gonna come back to get this I'm legit, legit. No, no exaggerating. Kimchi is pretty good. I like kimchi. I like it. I like kimchi that's a little spicy Are you okay? No, I'm tired of it. So the best thing about eating at Korean restaurants is that you always get a lot of side dishes It's like banchan and it's always unlimited so you can finish it and whatever you like, they'll give you more of it. Next dish Next we're gonna try out the gyesan barley rice set So it comes with this fish if you get this mackerel and then you also get your banchan side dishes You get two barley rices, right? And then you also get this bibimbap, but it's a vegetable bibimbap because you already have rice on the side So it's a very healthy and well-balanced dish and it only costs $20. That's a really worth a meal you get fish It's a huge fish. I'm actually really looking forward to that bibimbap All right, while Jisung is mixing that bibimbap I'm gonna try some of the mackerel. Going for it. But on the inside it's like the inside to me on the inside It's very like juicy. It looks very delicious Wow, I like the fish a lot. I don't know it's really flavorful It's actually really juicy inside. Wow. Wait, let's try the bibimbap He's not a Korean emperor, he's a Korean servant Cheers This is very balanced. I think it's like very refreshing. Definitely worth a try The fish is good. The bibimbap is good and it also comes with soup So inside of the soup you have tofu and I think the main flavor is fermented soybean. That's a really worth the set Next we're gonna try this dish. It is the sea bass. This is actually one of their more pricey dishes I think it's like $30 for a set The sea bass is very flavorful. So perfect if you mix it with some rice. This dish, there's also some mushrooms and potatoes Jisung was recommending the butsons Okay, I'm a fan of the sea bass. Jisung, you mentioned that this dish the jungle crab is actually one of your dad's favorite dishes, right? Yes, my dad loves it. My sister loves it. This crab marinated soy sauce. In Korean We describe it as a rice thief. As soon as you eat it, it's like you have to eat a lot of rice So this dish here is about $19.99 and it comes with rice on the side, but we don't eat raw stuff Unfortunately, so today we're not gonna try it. The next dish we're gonna try is braised beef ribs. Oh, yeah, there we go Oh, they have an egg in here. Whoa, try that beef rib right here So we've been eating all seafood mostly and now Sam is excited for the beef This beef obviously they've been cooking for a long time because the meat is very very tender The flavor has gone really deep in there. It's pretty good for me I'm more used to like a savory kind of beef to be honest, but I can go for this too It's slightly more pricey than the other dishes, but actually for this much meat, it's actually pretty worth it I think it's also more pricey because the meat is more higher quality. It's a high quality like short ribs All right. So just now we stopped the camera for a little bit to film and Jisung's like so guys This is actually one of the best Korean restaurants I've ever eaten in outside of Korea I'm like really? Don't say it to us, say it to the audience right now. Now that the camera's off, I can say that this is the best restaurant I've ever been to. It just tastes good to me. It just feels very authentic I actually think that this is one of the best Korean restaurants I've ever tried in America Even some of the restaurants in Korea is not as good as here The next dish I'll bring it closer to you guys. It's hairtail. This part is the back part of it Yeah, there's a lot of bones here You have to remove it. A lot of bones are coming out here And the second thing you do is like you remove the top part. Can you help me a little bit? See, you remove the top part and you see the bones, right? I can see that it's failing. Oh, no, no. Can you see this? I took out the bone. I have a huge chunk of fish here. Thank you for your deboning skills It is good. I think I like my preference is the mackerel. Very easy to eat. It goes well with the rice You have to try it with rice The hairtail fish actually comes in a set. If you get it with a soup, it's $24.99 But if you just get the fish with some rice, it's $19.99 And next we're gonna try out one of my favorite Korean dishes. It's all tofu soup This is like my go-to dish every time I'm craving Korean food. Tofu here is they make it freshly in-house This is a seafood tofu soup. I see a lot of clams in there and whatnot There's a lot of ingredients here. Vegetables, cucumbers. I think it's zucchinis. There's squid. There's mussels. Tofu. Pretty good. A lot of flavor. Out of all of the soups so far, this is definitely my favorite. Pretty spicy, guys. For me, that tofu soup is like the perfect seasoning. Not too spicy for me We just finished Korean food and then we're gonna try to do some Korean dance I feel a little bit shy to teach actually because I didn't learn that much as well Jisung is too shy to teach right now, but everybody cheer for Jisung by liking the video. Yay Okay, what? I just... Nobody hear Jisung! I just made eye contact with the driver Who cares? Good job All right, guys, we just finished our meal. We finished dancing and Sam did a very good job Overall, this restaurant is really good I think Jisung already gave us his overview. One of the best restaurants, like Korean restaurants in the States, right? That you had so far Yes, that is enough to say that you should... it's worth trying out, I think. We ate so much food But I still feel pretty good. I think it's because like everything's organic. It's just more healthier. What about you, Sam? I think it's okay You sound so like... If you're ever in Palisades Park, New Jersey, try this restaurant There's so many Korean restaurants here, but Jisung is gonna decide to come here again to eat That should show you how good this place is. Jisung's coming in a second time for sure. He's gonna bring his Korean friends He said, right? Yes, I do. That's it for this time. See you!
