25 Essential South Bay Area Restaurants
"One of the first Korean restaurants to open in Santa Clara, Chungdam has made a name for itself in the South Bay’s Koreatown for its elevated approach to the quintessential Korean barbeque experience. With batches of beef and pork that are hand selected, the quality of the meat is the star. The two most coveted barbeque options at Chungdam include the marinated short rib – made with a sweet, soy marinade — and the “Suwon”-style short rib, which is marinated in a dry rub of sugar, salt, and garlic. For those who aren’t in the mood for grilled meat, the restaurant also serves a variety of soups. The short rib stew is one of the most satisfying options." - Paolo Bicchieri, Cathy Park
