If you love Korean food, chances are you already know this place. It makes some crazy good Bibimbap, Kimbap, and my personal favourite, Chicken Katsu! Of course, they have so many amazing dishes it will be hard for you to choose from, but don't worry you won't be disappointed in anything you choose. This place can get pretty busy though, so if you want to avoid a line try a weeknight!

Another Bibimbap classic is Montreal, Kantapia is definitely one of my favourite Korean spots. The interior is a cute and quaintly decorated which gives it a nice homey feeling. The bibimbap is actually delicious here, as well as their katsu and kimchi! It doesn't usually have a big lineup so don't worry about that at this place. It's also open for a quick bite during lunch.
