    Sad that this place is closing. Came this past week and immediately felt like I was back at happy family dinners eating jjajangmyeon and tangsuyuk. It was pretty crowded and everyone seemed to be in a good mood despite the impending closure. We ordered jjamppong, jjajangmyeon, and beef tangsuyuk. The tangsuyuk didn't disappoint and of course, the portions of our noodle dishes were huge. Real comfort food. Happy I got to come before they closed.

    The year of the dragon says farewell to The Dragon. My family has celebrated four generations of birthdays, weddings, funerals and everything in between. My beloved grandmother had her last meal here. Just discovered that my mother helped with the seed money so the owner could start his business in the mid 70s. No wonder we ate here so often in my youth. I will take my memories with me tonight as well as some jjajangmyeon (짜장면), a Chinese-style Korean noodle dish. My grandmother's favorite.

    I love this place and it closes it's doors on January 28th! I found out the news on Instagram and the developer wants to build apartment complexes in its place, so sad. Anyway, I had to come to eat my heart out. There's no other korean chinese restaurant I am aware of so I'm so sad.

    PROS: - A long time staple in Koreatown LOS ANGELES. - Your typical Korean/Chinese fusion cuisine spot. - The jajangmyun is bomb, kangpoong-gee is delicious, along with the kangpoong sae woo is fantastic. - Lots of space inside with tons of tables. - The service is your typical asian restaurant. CONS: - Parking can be a pain. There is valet available to the rear. FINAL THOUGHTS: - I'm sad that they have officially closed their doors and is no longer in business.
