The 25 Best Korean Restaurants In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Much like The Rock (the wrestler) or L. Ron Hubbard (the sci-fi author), Master Ha started out known for one thing before becoming way more famous for another. So, while you can order a very solid bowl of ox-bone soup at this stylish Koreatown spot, the best dish here (and the one on every table) is their sweet, briny ganjang gaejang, or soy-marinated raw crab. If you’re with a group, the best move is to order a huge mound of whole crabs to crack into. Otherwise, go for the personal-sized marinated crab combo, which adds quail egg-topped rice, soy-marinated shrimp, an egg, pickles, and sheets of nori to make little crabby handrolls." - sylvio martins, brant cox, garrett snyder, cathy park
