Gamasot, Pannekoekstraat 103a, tel. 2133048

Recommendation: give it a try when you want a change from Dim Daily.

Although Gamasot has been here for some time, we did not try it until our recent discovery of Daily Wok encouraged us to try more Dim Daily alternatives. Gamasot is a Korean cafe, so the food is also a little alternative if you are only used to Chinese food, but recognisable. We really enjoyed the stir-fried rice dish with an egg on top and miso soup on the side. The new thing for me was the kimchi - a kind of spicy cold cabbage side-dish, which I gather comes in many varieties.

The food was great, overall, and the service excellent. The prices are more or less the same as at Dim Daily, so Gamasot loses out only by having a less comforatble atmosphere - like a harshly-lit snack bar. On balance, this place is definitely worth a try, and I shall go back, but probably only for a change when I have been to Dim Daily too much.
