Lee Ga - Review - Koreatown - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Lee Ga in Koreatown is known for its chilled buckwheat noodles, mostly because they’re made fresh instead of coming out of a package. And, yes, chewy noodles sloshed in icy beef broth or spicy sauce are absolutely a reason to come to this strip mall Korean restaurant. But so are all of the delicious things to surround your naengmyeon with, like the seasonal banchan and huge mandu wrapped tightly enough to catch a glimpse of their kimchi insides. The bulgogi is delightfully soupy, loaded with glass noodles that soak up the juice, and the giant marinated beef ribs are some of the most tender we’ve pulled off a bone in recent memory. All of the above makes Lee Ga far more special than your average Koreatown strip mall spot and somewhere you’ll plan to return to soon. photo credit: Jessie Clapp photo credit: Jessie Clapp photo credit: Jessie Clapp photo credit: Jessie Clapp" - Sylvio Martins
