The 25 Best Korean Restaurants In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"If you want a banchan spread fit for a prince, order the barley rice set at Borit Gogae. For $30 per person—minimum two people—this Koreatown restaurant covers your table with little dishes of fried, fermented, and pickled things, like sea snails, spicy radish, mung bean pancakes, and more (we could keep going). The whole meal is DIY bibimbap with a communal pot of barley rice in the center, but the best part is the three soups included: a simple scorched rice broth, sweet pumpkin puree, and a creamy perilla seed soup that tastes like nutty chicken porridge. And somehow, after spooning up every bit of rice and soup, you’ll still walk out feeling as light and fresh as a kite in the wind." - sylvio martins, brant cox, garrett snyder, cathy park
