"Specialties: Dolsot Bibimbap Gamja Bawi is a tiny stall inside the Koreatown Plaza mall. With neon signage, light-up elevators, and synchronized fountains, this mall food court is a sensory ‘80s dreamland, and it’s where you should make sure a sizzling stone bowl of Gamja Bawi’s dolsot bibimbap hits your table. Each serving is layered with rice and vegetables and a fried egg, then topped with a choice of protein like beef or mixed seafood, all complemented by a sweet and spicy gochujang sauce. The best part of the meal comes at the end, when you get to scrape off the thin layer of crunchy rice that’s been slowly crisping at the bottom, and mix it with whatever’s left in the bowl.
