If K-Town were a music arena, Miss Korea would be the headliner. Window-lined and perched above the crowded street level with an ambience that feels equally elevated, it has a unique personality that outshines the competition. Settle into the ground floor or head up a labyrinth of stairs to enter another pleasant dining room filled with tropical accents, tabletop grills, and cozy dining nooks. This lady is loved by many, so go with a group to really explore the menu and indulge in authentic japchae stir-fried with beef and veggies, or flaky seafood pancakes. Dolsot bibimbap highlights crusty rice spiced with kimchi and gochujang, while pork mandoo are extra divine when dunked in light soy. Barbecue pork belly is praiseworthy if not prize-winning.
