Comments on: Judging Restaurants – Yeehwa, Korean Japanese Restaurant http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2009/04/judging-restaurants-yeehwa-korean-japanese-restaurant/ Welcome to the beautiful life Fri, 10 Feb 2012 05:35:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: alaaro http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2009/04/judging-restaurants-yeehwa-korean-japanese-restaurant/#comment-13727 alaaro Wed, 08 Apr 2009 22:38:35 +0000 http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2009/04/judging-restaurants-yeehwa-korean-japanese-restaurant/#comment-13727 I work up the street from Yee Hwa, I go from time to time. Pretty tasty, albeit expensive. Annandale is definitely the local mecca for Korean - tons of good places there. Also, Woo Lae Oak in Tysons is pretty famous. Used to be in Crystal City, it was where all the Korean diplomats would go. Super tasty. I work up the street from Yee Hwa, I go from time to time. Pretty tasty, albeit expensive.

This place is in fact run by the Korean equivalent of rednecks, hence the name. Pennywise: You are spot on. This place is in fact run by the Korean equivalent of rednecks, hence the name.

Other options in DC in addition to those noted above are K-Young's located at 325 Morse Street NE in the Florida Avenue Market (open for breakfast and lunch Monday-Saturday only) and a new place that just opened in the former Curry Club space on Wisconsin Ave in Burleith (easily reachable by Circulator).

They have tasty mandu (dumplings) and sojutinis (try the aloe), $3 and $4 respectively during happy hour. Once they are indoctrinated I then kidnap them and drive them down to Little River Turnpike in Annandale! I take the newbies to Mandu on 18th.

It's not a bad date place. Mandu in the dupont area was ok, a little pricey but I enjoyed my food. It’s not a bad date place.

Although, Dan the Man's Teriyaki and Subs serves some pretty decent Korean dishes as well, and cheap. But it's nothing compared to places like <a href="http://www.koreandc.com/restaurant/list.cfm" rel="nofollow">Da Rae Won and Gah Rahm.</a> Korean fried chicken FTW!

Behind LA and NYC, but certainly a mecca. Anon- the DC area itself if a top 3 city for Korean food. Behind LA and NYC, but certainly a mecca.
