Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu @ Yonge and Finch

Dec 3, 2020 @ Yonge and Finch

With a 20% off pickup promo code, I went to my favourite Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu location:
Combination Soup (x3)
The soup was much better than the Victoria Park and Sheppard location with stronger flavours from the seafood and beef. The soup wasn't quite hot enough though (maybe from transporting it home), so the egg didn't mix well with the soup. Unfortunately this time around, the kimchi smelled a little funky (so we thought it went bad and didn't eat it), but on the good side, the beansprouts were delicious!
I also saw a sign saying 10% off if you pickup with cash - good to keep in mind for the future!

Wow, the price of their soon tofu soup bowls has risen quite a bit since the last time I was here. It's $13 per bowl.

Medium spicy Combination beef and seafood soup
It's perfect on a cold day. It warms you up and I find the spiciness level isn't that bad - medium is enough to make it taste better. I think I might be able to try regular spicy next time. (Maybe my spice tolerance is increasing).

Combination beef and seafood soon tofu soup
So good! There was lots of tofu, the soup was delicious and well flavoured (even though I got the white soup) and they had delicious purple rice accompanying it. Yum!

On a cold winter day, eating soon tofu soup is a great way to warm up. 

Bibimbap
It looked pretty good and tasted okay.  I think I like their soon tofu soups here a lot better than the bibimbap, but I'm glad I tried it (I also used a lot of hot sauce to get some flavour out of this).

Combination Soon Tofu with beef, shrimp and mussels (white) and the yummy purple rice
Delicious! What looks like a tiny meal is actually very filling. The purple rice has a subtle flavour to it and when combined with the soup, it really feels like it sticks to your ribs. It's hearty and perfect when the weather's cold because it warms you right up. 
They use really good ingredients in the soup - the tofu is smooth and delicious, the shrimp are tiny and sweet and the mussel still has it's shell on. I like the combination soon tofu more than the seafood one; so if you're trying soon tofu for the first time = get this one!

Seafood Soon Tofu with oyster, shrimp and mussels (white)
This had more of a seafood flavour, but I found that I liked the flavour the beef gave to the overall soup better in the Combination Soon Tofu soup. Also, since I can't eat spicy, I chose to get the white soup which is still very flavourful and really yummy.

Overall: One of the best Soon Tofu places in Toronto. The service is fast, the food is delicious and the price - they offer their Soon Tofu soups for $7.53 + tax (Amazing deal for such a satisfying meal).
