Susukino Korean bar yoi with a good atmosphere

Have you ever experienced a sudden craving for Korean food while traveling abroad?
If you're in Susukino and you think of Korean food,
We recommend Yoi, a Korean bar located in the shopping mall Kokono Susukino, which opened in November 2023.

Kokono Susukino is a shopping complex
It is still more popular with locals than tourists.
The 1st~2nd floors are for shopping, and the 3rd~4th floors are for restaurants.
On the third floor, there are relatively inexpensive restaurants with a food court feel
The 4th floor is a bit pricey, but there are some restaurants with a nice atmosphere.

Today's YOI is located by the window on the 4th floor.
It has a floor-to-ceiling window and looks out over the view of Susukino
You can have a meal or a drink.

Today, I'd like to introduce you to yoi's lunch menu.
I ate samgyetang and soft tofu stew.

This is a lunch special, Yoigyetang (Samgyetang) set.
Three side dishes including samgyetang, rice, and kimchi,
Yuzu gochujang, sesame leaf sauce, etc.
It consisted of Yoi's unique sauce.
Soft drinks are also served.

The taste of Samgyetang was quite similar to Korea.
Garlic and dates were also well in the chicken's stomach.
The soup was a bit lighter than the Samgyetang restaurants in Korea.

Next is the soft tofu set meal.
Under the influence of Itaewon class, among the Japanese
I think it's one of the most popular Korean dishes.
It comes out as seafood soft tofu
Like Samgyetang, there are three side dishes including kimchi and
Drinks are served with a glass.

The taste is also quite Korean
In the case of red soup in Korean food, in Japan, it is often sweetened by using red pepper paste.
I'm glad it didn't feel like that here.
When I ate it with side dishes, I felt like I was eating Korean food.

If you visit during the day, you can enjoy your meal with this view.
Of course, at night, while looking out over Susukino, which is lit up with gorgeous lights,
It turns into a space where you can have a cup of shochu.

Not only shochu but also various wines or sake
They also sold a variety of other alcoholic beverages.

There are quite a few Korean restaurants around Susukino.
It seems that the only place where you can enjoy Korean food leisurely while looking at such a view is yoi.
