Located on El Camino Real next to Fuki Sushi sits Sun Tofu, a Korean restaurant specializing in soft tofu soup. I had the Mushroom Soft Tofu Soup and my sister had the Chicken Bulgogi. Both dishes came out fresh from the kitchen sizzling on the stoneware dishes. Along with the main dishes, we were also served red bean rice and a variety of Korean sides including: bean thread noodles, rolled seaweed, candied potatoes, cabbage kimchi, pickled cucumbers, mung bean sprouts, and a raw egg. The portions were quite large and the wait staff was excellent, refilling our sides and water quickly and frequently.

I had a similar experience there a few weeks ago. Seems like a decent place, close to work, too. And, if you decide you don't want tofu after meeting friends there, there's always the good sushi next door. :)
