K Peppers

K Peppers

In a word: Fine dining that's just fine.  The specs: #0522  Address, hours & details via Isthmus ; reviews at Yelp , 77 Square ; listing at EatDrinkMadison ;  official web site . JM ate the bulgogi. Nichole ate the rock cooker bibimbap. Sue ate the tuigimmandoo with a Solomon's Seal hot tea. The bill was $41 plus tip (thanks, Mom!) JM gave K Peppers a B+; Nichole gave K Peppers an A-; Sue gave K Peppers a C+. K Peppers is a slightly upscale Korean venue in downtown Middleton. The decor is pleasing if spare, the dim sum are served on a rolling cart, the parking is nearly nonexistent, the chopsticks are metal, and the tastes may be acquired. The tuigimmandoo appetizer was a deep-fried affair, but light and filled with vegetables. It arrived just before our numerous dim sum. These included a tart kimchi, a lightly-dressed mayo-apple-pineapple salad, coleslaw, sweet-glazed potato salad, and tempura broccoli. We were offered '”refills” of a choice of two, but the dishes available did vary even during the short span of our meal. The rock cooker bibimbap was great. Rice dominated the dish, but there were plenty of crispy bits to tie together with a bit of shiny egg. Zucchini, mushrooms, and a few strips of beef for flavor filled it out. JM's bulgogi was very good, with a tasty smokiness. The wrap-it-yourself lettuce on the side was a fun way to serve the dish. The filling made it to the end and then some, though when was said and done, JM was still a little hungry. Fortunately, the side dish refills arrived shortly thereafter. K Peppers is a little spendier than a place like P.F. Chang's down the road, and a little less authentic (maybe) than New Seoul , so balance your needs accordingly.
