One of the best ways to spend a riotous night out on the town is to grab some friends and head to a Korean barbecue joint for soju, beer, meats grilled at the table, a feeling of self-satisfied gluttony, and (ideally) songs belted out at the nearest karaoke bar. Many places fit that bill, but the four spots below serve the highest-quality meat, handle it with the most attentive care, and serve it alongside the most compelling sides (a.k.a.banchan).
The绝对Best
1.康·霍·贝孔贡
1 E. 32nd街。五th大街。212-966-9839
152-12 Northern Blvd., nr. Murray St.; Murray Hill, Queens;718-886-8645
Kang Ho Baekjeong is like a nightclub for meatheads. Between the sizzling meat, thumping music that somehow feels right, and servers zipping around the dining room, it’s impossible not to fall under the spell. The famous South Korean chain arrived first in Flushing in 2013, followed by a Manhattan location the next year. The two franchises are operated independently, but they share a similar aesthetic: spare and clean, with stainless-steel vents, concrete floors, and thick wooden tables that wouldn’t look out of place in a beer hall. Both will leave you satisfied, with banchan that’s reliably on point. There are crisp greens dressed refreshingly in soy, vinegar, and garlic; the requisite kimchee; crunchy pickled radishes; jiggly soft tofu dressed with soy and chile; and so on.
不过，真正分离的姜何是肉类的优越品质以及它在烧烤之前和之后都可以处理的方式。在烹饪过度之前，员工迅速将其切成薄片的牛ket迅速推开，您会（轻轻）命令它在准备就绪后立即食用。选择也很引人注目：加上腌制的短肋骨，牛s和五花肉的通常产品，还有牛舌，猪肉jowl和腌制的猪肉项圈。一切都很好，所以请订购猪肉和牛肉的组合盘，并用最喜欢的切割补充它，因为如果您不全力以赴，您就会错过观点。
2.Jongro
22ndW. 32nd街。百老汇，Secondfl。;212-473-2233
In the grand tradition of great K-town spots, Jongro is hard to find on frenzied West 32ndStreet. It’s stowed away on the second floor of its building, and only announces itself with a tiny sign that hardly stands out. Yet it certainly deserves attention. The spacious dining room feels a world away from the street below, and the design is an homage to old Seoul, with white-brick pillars, old movie posters and a tin cigarette sign decorating the walls, and even a few tables situated under a gazebo. It’s extremely popular among the younger crowd, mostly because the meat is more affordable than is typical in Koreatown and significantly better than most of the pricier stuff. Drinks are fairly priced, and every diner even gets his or her own tray with compartments for salt, sesame oil with brown sugar, and the spicy bean pasteSSAMJANG。
3.MapoB.B.Q.
149-24 41stAve., Murray Hill, Queens;718-886-8292
A hole in the wall compared to Manhattan’s colossal barbecue temples, MapoB.B.Q.is known chiefly for its fat-streaked kalbi, the classic Korean marinated short rib, which could be the single most satisfying cut of meat served at any Korean barbecue restaurant in town. The beef is cooked over charcoal, a relative rarity, lending smokiness as the meat crisps up. The marinade is forgiving and doesn’t totally overwhelm the meat, adding the right amount of salty-sweetness to complement the well-marbled short rib. It helps, too, that the banchan are plentiful and notably well executed, like some of the most balanced kimchee you’ll find in town, even if the particular part of “town” is Queens’s Murray Hill, but non-locals can get there easily enough by taking a $5 ride on theLIRR. It’s worthit.
4.Han Joo Chik Naeng Myun＆BBQ
41-06 149th pl。，皇后区默里山；718-359-6888
Han Joo非常方便地位于Mapo的隔壁。但是，尽管Mapo声名fame是Short Rib，但Han Joo专门研究了一个备受赞誉的猪肚，该猪肚在厚厚的水晶板上烧烤。显然，这应该更健康，或者至少像羽毛堆一样“健康”。无论如何，在几种迭代中提供了星形成分：新鲜，咸，切成薄片，用豆糊，绿茶，大蒜等腌制。坚持基础知识，索要厚实的版本，并确保享受与猪肉一起煮熟的泡菜，在池塘中煮熟fat.
