Dinner Tonight: Kumquat-Rosemary Marmalade with Goat Cheese

This sounds amazing! But it's not dinner. It's an after dinner snack.

Daily Veg: Yachaejuk at Bonjuk

I just went there yesterday! I had the crab one, while my dining companions had had the mushrooom beef, and vegetable. They were all very good!

I agree with you that each order is seriously enormous, but for $10 it better be! I also took half of it home as I couldn't finish it.

At the end, they also gave us kabocha squash juice - it was a great way to finish the meal. :)

Flushing: A Chicken Fight At Debasaki

I had their boodae jjigae and it was SUPER spicy, even for a korean person like me. I did ask them to make it less spicy but to no avail.

The wings are awesome and totally delicious!!

Flushing: Pork Belly at Tong Samgyeop Gui

Another great review, Chris! Did you use the aprons that hang on the walls? That's there to use. You'll look ridiculous but you won't have meat juice on ya. =)

Just so you know - if you're looking for a clean and fancy place, this place is not for you.

Berite100 - the "lid" top enables all the fat to drip down to the bottom.

LHSK12 - The ice bowl of nangmyun is pretty awesome, though after I started eating I was like...the bowl is melting into my soup...I wonder what this bowl is made of!

Fast Food International: CheoGaJip Chicken

This style of Korean fried chicken has been around for many many years! I used to eat it as a child in Korea.

But BonChon style came out and stole all the thunder. =) In any case, for people who like sauce, this is awesome. I'm not too fond of the pizza though.

Flushing: Gamjatang at Geo Si Gi

Great write up, Chris! I look forward to reading about your Flushing adventures.

I learned on a Korean TV show that the name "gamja" is actually referring to the name of the pork bone, not potatoes, which is the same word. I've made this dish at home before and it's definitely one of my favorites!

Mapo BBQ in Murray Hill, Queens: Is This The Best Kalbi in Town?

Great write up!

I have to agree with Simon. Jang Tuh's kalbi is pretty solid, with same smoked coals, and cheaper than Mapo. And close to the 7 train.

Sidenote: if you've never had kalbi with smoked coals, you totally should give it a try. It's like kalbi's goodness x 20000. =)

My favorite go to place for pork belly will always be Ham Ji Bak, located on the same block as Mapo.

Serious Heat: Obsessed with Gochujang, the Korean Chile Sauce

@myinnerfatty- OH DEAR! LOL.

Traditional lettuce wraps mix gochujang with dwenjang (soy bean fermented paste) which is super delicious!

I love to mix gochujang with vegetables, white rice and a hint of sesame oil for a quick and yummy meal.
