1. Biwon is hands down my all-time favorite Korean restaurant. Every visit, I can’t resist ordering their kimchi pancake—it’s simply irresistible!

2. Japones Motomachi is a hidden gem introduced to me by a Korean friend. The owner, a warm and welcoming Chinese-Korean auntie, serves up both Japanese and Korean dishes with incredible flair. Her shabu-shabu is not to be missed!

3. MISOOK offers a taste of North Korean cuisine, with a focus on straightforward, no-frills meals perfect for lunch or a quick bite. It’s tucked away near 93 and delivers satisfying simplicity.

4. Arilang needs no introduction—it’s a staple in the Korean dining scene. For an authentic experience, I highly recommend their kimchi tofu soup, along with their other hearty soups that never disappoint.

5. Casa de Corea is just steps away from Arilang and shares its classic charm. Both are beloved by locals, especially Koreans who return time and again for their traditional flavors.
