Yong Su San Restaurant Description:
In a town where Korean cuisine seems to be defined by bustling cook-at-the-table establishments, this L.A. branch of one of Seoul's leading restaurants is understated and refined. There are silk table coverings, brocade walls, elegantly dressed waitresses in traditional garb, handsome ceramic dishware, and multi-course meals designed to be fit for royalty in an ancient Korean kingdom. Eight to 12 courses make a typical meal, ramped up with dozens of beguiling tiny dishes, and the choice of private rooms make it a good spot for groups and special occasions. The cuisine is Kaesung style, from a region of what's now North Korea, and while you'll find standards served in each course---barbecue, kimchi, chap chae (stir-fried clear noodles with vegetables), salads---you'll also find some things you'd never dreamed of like creamy porridge or jellyfish. If you don't like one dish, just wait for the next one (there's also an à la carte menu), and rest assured that each is prepared and served with care. The multi-course lunch may be L.A.'s best bargain on a fancy meal.
