What did I order and how did it taste?
I couldn’t resist trying their Whole Corn Bun and the Squid Ink Whole Corn Bun. The former was surprisingly light and had a subtle sweetness that balanced perfectly with the grainy texture. The Squid Ink Bun was a bit of an adventure; it was rich, slightly salty, and definitely visually striking with its dark color.
