Chow Now: Egg and Beef Bi-bim-bob

When you're craving a light dinner or perhaps a light lunch, and are at a loss for what to eat, this is the dish for you. The Egg and Beef Bi-bim-bob (quite the mouthful, I know) at Tampopo is a light meal with clean flavors that won't leave you feeling like you need to take a nap once you've finished it. So what exactly is a bi-bim-bob? In this case, it's white jasmine rice, topped with cooked shredded carrots, zucchini, spinach, bean sprouts, grilled beef and a sunny side-up egg. Served with a special spicy sauce, the bi-bim-bob is a must-try when you visit the hidden treasure that is Tampopo. The dish can be served vegetarian style or with chicken, and the egg is optional. It's tasty, the perfect portion size, and each component is well seasoned and really adds something to each bite. I like it best when you mix it all together and get a combination of everything with each mouthful. Visit Tampopo (44th between Spruce and Locust) and CHOW NOW!
