The 21 Best Korean Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Whether it’s soft and cloudlike in a maesaengi oyster soondubu, or firm and braised in a hotpot, freshly made tofu shows up on nearly every dish on the menu of this Koreatown spot. They even detail the dubu-making process on the first page of the menu, and the first bite of your meal here will be nutty, unpressed dubu that tastes like soybeans that spent a day at a milk spa. The stews, like a ruby-red seafood jjambbong hotpot with eight different sea creatures, come to your table bubbling, ready to soak into a personal pot of sweet, sticky rice. But the best part about this place is, despite its chic look, you can easily get out for under $50 a head, including a drink or two. Come with a group." - bryan kim, kenny yang, willa moore, will hartman
