Vintage Review: On the Border

I ate here twice last weekend. The first night I only had cheesecake. It was fantastic! Nice and rich. The 2nd time I had a build your own burrito. It was huge and delicious! My friends ordered the quesadillas and true to Korean custom it is best to share, as they are also quite fulling for just one average sized person. I will definitely go back to this restaurant when I visit Seoul again. The staff were friendly and the menus are in English.
I have to partially agree to your ho-humm review. I am originally from Texas so slap a "Tex-Mex" label on this food is sorta doing Tex-Mex cuisine a disservice. Though, I say this, I live in Eumseong…which is approximately 1.25 hours away from everything. So when I get the opportunity to eat at "On the Border" I will jump at it! The carne asada tacos are a rare opportunity to sink your teeth into some beef and not beef chips. I wish Koreans could learn the value of cutting beef into thick slices so that you can get a good carmelized crust on the exterior and retain the juicy goodness of medium to medium rare beef on the inside. The thickest steak I've had in Korea was at "Outback" and it was woefully inadequate. So if you get your teeth sunk into some cow, hook a brother up and give me the skinny if you please? Keep up the good work you have some interesting reads!
Thanks Jeff. I'll keep you posted.
