Best Bulgogi Slider
Forget Shake Shack. Danji's bulgogi slider takes on the American burger, and it does not disappoint. The spicy pickled cucumber and scallion salsa pack the bulgogi with a zesty punch. If you're feeling more adventurous, try the spicy pork belly slider with Korean chili paste mayo. (For you, Joel Salatin fans: All of Danji's meat and poultry are raised on a vegetarian diet, so indulge in your meatcation with a free conscience.)
The earthy feel of the restaurant can be attributed to the chef-owner Hooni Kim, who took his cooking know-how from his time at Daniel and Masa and left all the pretentious trappings behind. The menus are hidden in drawers that pull out from the tables and a wall of wooden and silver spoons create a modern yet old-time atmosphere. |
