To Valerie's list, let me add Wu Chon in Union Square. Somewhat different
menu from Koreana, and more likely to give you seriously hot food. And, if
one avoids the after-10pm crowd (Karaoke. Booze. Need I say more?), it just
seems a more pleasant place to me.
While you're there, you might want to visit Reliable Market, across the
square, which is a first-rate Korean grocery, and Capone's Foods (run by, no
kidding, Al Capone) for astoundingly good pasta, cheese, mushrooms, olive
oil, etc.....
One last thing: a general warning about restaurants in the area. Don't
expect them to believe you when you say you want your food hot. They'll
nod, and smile, and promise you all sorts of lovely things, but they're
*lying*. Your food will arrive Yankee-hot, not Texas-hot. You may not
even be able to detect the presence of any chile-related substance....
