"Big, communal drinking vessels are kind of important at Myung Dong. But whether you split a tower of light beer or a watermelon filled with soju, you shouldn’t let the drinking (or the endless loop of K-pop videos playing on every TV) distract you from the really good Korean menu. This is a place where you should come late at night when you’re sick of the bars but still want to have fun - especially since most bars don’t serve blood sausage with spicy rice cakes or crispy vegetable dumplings so good you’ll end up ordering a second plate to help you get through that watermelon." - dan secatore
