"Borit Gogae is as zen as a spa, except no one's exfoliating four layers of skin off your back. At this Koreatown spot, $30 gets you a massive barley rice feast, complete with banchan, creamy chicken soup, and a sweet pumpkin porridge that tastes like food fit for a baby prince. The fermented sides make this meal probiotic heaven, ending with a cinnamon punch. Everything is incredibly light and nourishing. Just don’t let the calming music lull you to sleep at the table." - sylvio martins, brant cox
