Korean Flank Steak Rice Bowl (Steak Doep Bap)
Came with over cooked soggy asparagus, a mayonnaise-y looking sauce on the meat not in the picture of the food, and over cooked well done steak.

Miso Sesame Salmon
This was good, but the green beans were raw so when you heated up the salmon you would have had to cook it to oblivion to make sure they were also cooked. Also got like 3 carrots. Sauce was the star.
