We wanted to eat light, so we went to this Korean soup & noodle place. Clam soup hand pull noodle, the noodle are fresh and soft, there’re actually quite a lot of clams in it.
Homemade Mandoo, thin chewy skin, yummy veggie fillings, nice! The homemade Green onion chilli sauce is so good too.
I love the homemade-ness here, they have mandoo (dumplings) in soup too.
Ma Dong Gook Su 869 S. Western Ave., 213-487-6008
Hmmm does the mandoo contain meat? They look yummy. So many restaurants on Western I’ve passed by and want to try ^^!
Yes I think so…because the meat were so finely chopped that they’re so smooth and didn’t taste like meat ^^;; almost like a tofu veggie dumpling (but with meat flavor). Oh I haven’t explore Western yet at all. The bakery right next to this place is said to be very good too (chestnut bread). And the other day, we walked by this fancy coffeehouse called “Jack”, it’s a BOAT inside, decorated with luxurious 1920s-ish Europe antiques…and there’s a poster of Titanic (the movie) at the entracee…guess whose character who “Jack” is meant to be…^^;;;;
It’s hard to research what’s good in k-town because most of them weren’t listed in English search site. I heard that K-town has its own Korean 411,
Go have chestnut bread before autumn ends!
Yes it’s so hard to do K-town related research! I found this site but it’s basically just list of shops, no descriptions let alone recommendations whatsoever… Speaking of which, I bought some dvds starring Jeong Jin Yeong (aka The King), two of them directed by the same director for TKATC, interested ^^;?
The directory site’s content doesn’t show up for me for some reason…hm… Oh haha you bought the DVDs? Are they good? (I’m sure~)
I’ll bombard you re:the dvds elsewhere since it’s OT here 😛 Hmmm funny that directory doesn’t show up for you!
hehe alright~ ;D
