Koreatown, Los Angeles · restaurant
Koreatown's 24-hour galbi jjim spot, where braised short ribs arrive in a cauldron with rice cakes and potatoes in a spicy sauce. Four heat levels, and a blowtorched cheese topping that most tables order. The galbi tang (short rib soup) is the quieter order for anyone not going all-in on the big pot. At 2am, the place is still packed.
