There’s a new Korean restaurant in town, and from what we’ve seen so far, it looks to be a delicious and wallet-friendly spot to check out.

Take the hot plate dishes, for instance. If you are a fan of meat or seafood sizzled to perfection, you can get either the Hot Plate Chicken / Pork, Hot Plate Sabah Fish, or Hot Plate Squid, all of which will set you back just $14 each.

As for rice dishes, Hankang Pocha has two options: the Cheese Kimchi Fried Rice ($12) and the Rice Balls ($10 for six). You can’t go wrong with the former, as the mixture of spicy and tangy kimchi with creamy and rich cheese is always a delightful combination.
