leann's tea house is not a chinese restaurant, rather the main attraction here is their unlimited meat and tea. aside from these, there are other notable dishes you may want to try.
true to their name and before i go into anything else, don't forget to avail of their refillable tea which is free-- flavors depending on the brew for the day ranging from oksusu cha (korean corn tea) to earl grey. these are good for the tummy especially after taking in a lot of meat or in between.
onto the must try list:
- cheese buldak (320php) yess! top one on the list for me! cheese buldak translates to cheesy fire chicken. the chicken is mildly spicy, but no worries, nothing you can't handle. mixed in with the creamy mozzarella cheese, tteok-bokki (rice cake) and the heat of the plate, you surely wouldn't go wrong with this order.
- unlimited pork and beef/samgyeopsal and woosamgyup (449php). you may also opt for just pork/samgyeopsal (349php), but you're already here and just for +100php, why not go for the best of both worlds? as for quality, their meat is both imported and locally shipped, depending on which is more fresh. who wouldn't want that? both packages come with unlimitedsidedishes,
1. rice
2. lettuce
3. garlic and onion
4. kimchi
5. sweet mashed potatoes
6. soy braised peanuts
7. lettuce salad
8. soybean sprouts (togue)
9. soup (soybean? i have to clarify with this. the standard korean soup)
10. sesame oil, salt and pepper
11. ssamjang (thick sweet and spicy sauce for the meat)
if you're ordering just ala carte, classic favorites include:
- seafood pancake/hameul pajeon (300php) crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside good for sharing.
- bibimbap (210php) beef, mushrooms, carrots, cucumber, spinach, togue and egg yolk on a piping hot white rice bowl, with an option to make it spicy with gochujang sauce. this will surely fill up your tummy.
coming soon!!!
for no additional charge, the resto will be adding their own meat marination in the unlimited pork and beef package namely: bulgogi beef (sweet and tastes like tapa yum), spicy pork and spicy woosamgyup.
leann's tea house has a small signage. you may miss it so better keep your eyes open! they have both charcoal and electric grills, depending on the availability and where you sit. service-wise, they have improved a lot compared to the last time i was here. they've become amiable and happy to serve. servers may forget some of your additional requests because of the influx of customers so don't hesitate to ask again. there is relatively a lot of space on the second and third floor so don't get disheartened at the first floor. parking can be done in front of the restaurant, but you can also park in the streets (be sure to check out if there are no parking signs). restroom is located on the second floor.
