| - This is the only 24 hour Korean restaurant, famous for their pork bone soup - I don't recommand anything else from here - it's pricier because of the convenience factor, not the taste. But their Pork Bone Soup is amaaaaazing!!!!
It's another "boon shik" (a fast food), which is a poplular style of restaurant among working class and students, as we view eating out as a socializing ocassion not so much an event.
Their menu has changed a little bit since the last time I went - the pork bone soup used to be brought only with Kim Chi sides, but I see that they bring "variety" these days.
The soup is hearty, meat falls off the bone and even when you are very full, you are tempted to eat more of it because it's so good. Pork Bone Soup has been reviewed by papers as "Korean chicken Noodle Soup" except this one has nutrients - I've used it as such and it seem to work.
The service is slow and really, I've wanted to walk out so many times- but never did because the soup makes me come back sooner than later, especially during the winter months.
One thing I caution is that the soup is made spicy.
In fact, most stews in Korean cuisine are spicy - that's why you get rice and other things to neuturalize it. Don't eat all of the sides first ;tht is meant to be eaten with the rice and the stew - korean cuisine doens't come in structured order, like appetizer, entree, dessert. They usually come all at once. If you do eat it all though , they will bring you some more.
