Jong Soon

I was at the Sta. Lucia Mall for a meeting with some real estate brokers, and was invited to have a fast lunch at Jong Soon Korean restaurant.  While the mall proper is already showing its age, the restaurant was spic and span, brightly lit and the food was reasonable, just about at the P250 per head price range.  I was a bit confused, however, because the food server told me that their bestsellers were sushi rolls and tonkatsu, which sounded more like Japanese food to me. The man, however, insisted that these were styled in the Korean cooking method, so I had them for lunch.  Not bad, it was definitely not Japanese, and with the red ketchup sauce on the side, I'm inclined to believe his explanation.
