The Most Classic Restaurants In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"No great night in Ktown would be complete without a stop at Sun Nong Dan. The original location of this legendary Korean cafe is open until 5am every night of the week (the new one on Western Ave. is 24 hours), but no matter when you arrive, you’ll find a dining room with groups huddled around massive skillets of galbi jjim with rice cakes and vegetables in a spicy, sticky marinade. Order it with cheese on top, and they'll blowtorch the whole pile at your table. This is one of the single most iconic dishes in LA, and the sole reason why, even at 3am, you’ll be waiting around on the sidewalk until your name gets called.
