Situated in SOHO, this small restaurant has a large selection of Korean dishes. We didn't fancy the warm soups and broths on such a warm day, but instead opted for the traditional grilled meats. We're sure that the broths would work very well in the autumn or winter.

As our starter we shared a bowl of K Pop Chicken, which turned out to be crispy cubes of chicken with a sweet sauce. For our mains, my wife enjoyed a classic Lamb Bulgogi — pan-fried thin-sliced marinated lamb. I opted for something new from their menu, the Bossam — a 12-hour slow cooked and grilled Pork belly.

One of the reasons why we chose Korean cuisine for this evening, was to try a Korean beer and a Makgeolli. The beer as part of our quest to try a beer from each of the 48 participating World Cup countries. The Makgeolli because it was a style of Korean drink that we had never previously tried. We had the plain variant at Co & Ko, and subsequently purchased a chestnut flavoured option from one of the South Korean supermarkets that seem to be springing up in London.

The food at Ko & Co was nice, and it had a good ambiance. On a hot summer evening we were grateful to be sat in front of the open window. Judging by the rest of the clientele, the restaurant seems to be popular with the Korean community. There was a steady stream of diners coming and going, enjoying the delicious looking food.

After our meal, we were still a little thirsty — it was a hot evening after all — and shared a Soju. An enjoyable and relaxing way to finish our meal. We would definitely return and recommend Co & Ko.
