    Jonathan Gold visits Kang Hodong Baekjeong in Chapman Plaza, which he describes as the epicenter of Korean nightlife in Los Angeles. He says the meat at this Korean BBQ joint is better than most other restaurants and he is currently fascinated by the dosirak, the Korean equivalent of a Bento Box, but here it's shaken vigorously to distribute all of the ingredients.

    Kang Hodong Baekjeong

    3465 W 6th St

    Los Angeles, CA 90020

    213-384-9678
