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

"This small, cafeteria-like Korean restaurant in Murray Hill, Queens only serves one thing: beef bone soup (spicy or non-spicy) with cellophane noodles and a few accompanying banchan. According to the signage, the soup is simmered for four hours, but it tastes like it’s been cooking all day. Your steaming hot bowl of noodles and broth will arrive around 30 seconds after you place your order, and in the center, you'll find an enormous bone lined with meat that falls off as soon as you touch it. The meal also includes rice and sheets of gim. All of this will cost you roughly $20." - bryan kim, kenny yang, willa moore, will hartman

19 Standout Korean Restaurants in Murray Hill, Queens | Eater NY

"Paksanbal only has one item on its menu — beef gukbab (rice in beef and cabbage soup) — and it’s served either regular or spicy. The plain version boasts a richer beef flavor that gets eclipsed by the gochugaru in the spicy version. Owner XY has always kept the menu tight with only one or two dishes coming and going in the decades since she’s opened her restaurant. A lot of things have stayed the same though: the tried-and-true gukbap, the old-fashioned way of piercing a stack of toasted seaweed with a wooden toothpick, the self-serve water and green tea at the front, and the nonstop broadcast of golf." - Caroline Shin

Parksanbal Babs - Review - Murray Hill, Queens - New York - The Infatuation

"Parksanbal Babs only does one thing, and they do it very well. This tiny, cafeteria-like Korean restaurant in Murray Hill, Queens specializes in cartilaginous beef bone soup, which is kept simmering in a few cauldron-sized pots in the back. You can get it spicy or non-spicy, but the spicy version doesn't pack much heat, so you might as well go for it. Cooked for at least four hours, the rich, scalding gukbap comes with a fistful of cellophane noodles and a massive bone lined with meat that falls right off. You'll get a few banchan and a bowl of rice with your order, and all of this will cost less than $20. photo credit: Bryan Kim" - Bryan Kim
