[Guest kOoHII]

cali is not that great really...it's really overly hyped. downtown la is in the middle of the ghetto...the only perks about cali is disneyland, ktown, and maybe little tokyo

hi celidilec! is this your first time to K-town?

Yes, it is! Its been really cool so far. I've had some great korean food so far! Also, saw Music Plaza, where I use to buy my music from. So, that was really cool

First day here, we had food at Soot Bull Jeep (I think is name?) which was REALLY good! Also went to a buffet, which wasn't great, but not horrible...

Plus, the yujahs are BEAUTIFUL!!!

YEAH! We went to the Farmer's Market when we got here. Very cool!

Do you know where the tofu restaurant is?? I have a week with my bro left, and our plan is to hit up some different restaurants

[soomp]

j-j-j-j-j-cels!

you finally made it over here, huh!!

there's a rather "famous" soon-dubu joint called SO-GONG-DONG on the corner of vermont & olympic, a plaza over from HAN-NAM CHAIN (there's probably 1000 soon dubu joints on that intersection, but that one's particularly well known).

since you're there for a week, you also have to go to HODORI, which is this 24-hour k-food joint that's a landmark in k-town. it's not awesome or anything, but just one of those places you go to after a late nite of whatever

also, if you like JJAM-BBONG (spicy), there's this place called AL-BAN-AE that my sister always takes me. it's a hole-in-the-wall on 6th & alexandria. their jjambbong is like a swimming pool, and SUPER spicy, but delicious. they also have an awesome DDUK-BOK-EE SUPREME type of dish that the cook at your table.

these are all <$8 a dish type places, easy on the wallet, but tasty!

i hope you have a great time! i'm a suburb girl, and LA gives me a headache, but it's def. a city worth checking out! <3

Awww Jack is in our neck of the woods! You FINALLY come visit the west coast. Took you long enough!

Now if you see me, don't go following me home now...haha (like last time! )

Hodori...hmm...last I heard, it got infested with cockroaches...so people have been going to Nakwon (which is right next door...and I think cockroaches can also just walk right over). BUT it is a Ktown landmark. Open 24 hours 7 days a week 365 days a year.

There is a soondooboo place on Wilshire & Kingsley (3575 Wilshire Blvd) called BCD where a lot of people seem to bump into celebrities. There is another BCD on Western (Western & 9th) across the street from Ktown Galleria, but in the same lot as Rodeo Galleria.

Don't forget to go NoRaeBang! I always go to the one on Normandie & 6th. I believe it's called Young Dong. Only $10 an hour? Or was it $15?

California maybe over hyped.. BUT I can assure you that it is pretty much better then any other state in America..

[Guest system]

Wish I was in Cali.

The weather in the east coast has been horrible lately.

MI got dumped with rain and then made its way here to NY.

Oh, damn. Didn't hear that about Hodori. Good to know since we're going clubbing this weekend. I guess we're not going there after.

if those were the only places in cali, it would be hard to understand how a hype could ever exist.

unlike most big cities, downtown LA isnt generally where people hang. but given all the other unique areas, like ktown, the beach communities like venice, manhatten, malibu and even santa monica, all the smaller chinese areas like monterey park, alhambra, etc, and more well known places like hollywood/universal city, anaheim, etc...i personally think LA has plenty of cool places to go to.

heck...let's spread the love and give credit to San Diego and San Francisco. there's plenty of great things to do in those cities too. I think weather/scenery in SD is nicer than LA. and SF has a unique blend of east-coast/west-coast city feel.

when you think about it...cali's not so bad. it might not be like mahattan (which i love like my own hometown), but it's nice out here. =)

System - it's actually kinda humid in LA. i guess it's nicer than rain, but weather was nice in NY after the rain passed by over the weekend. i'd rather be up there in NY though. haha

edit: nakwon's better. but if you want a place to go after drinks, jinju gomtang is open 24/7 as well i believe. it's on wilshire and alexandria, further east from BCD.

[little mixed girl]

i'm very disappointed in you *tsk tsk tsk*, cali huh? for shame! ;p
