For the price, you get bigger portions and more sides at the Korean bbqs in K-town ($3 for garlic? $3 for lettuce and a tiny bowl of daenjang? Where do you think you are, World Wide Plaza??), but the food was very good and for dessert they had this sort of Southeast Asian variation on patbingsoo: all the usual red beans and fruits and jellies and syrups and stuff, but with coconut shave ice and coconut ice cream instead of the normal plain ice and milk. I like food.
Amusingly enough, our Josie is not the only Josie in the room - who do I see over in the corner but Josie from this season's Top Chef, on Bravo? She was one of the top contenders this season in my book until she and partner Marisa made this one ill-conceived prickly pear and coconut soup at the Jennifer Coolidge dinner that everyone said looked like Pepto Bismol, and was sent packing. Fast forward two months and there she is, sitting with a couple friends at a fancy Korean bbq, having the time of her life. Yay her.
