Description

Named after the owner, this restaurant serves both traditional and non-traditional small and large plates, including pa jun (savory pancake), bi bimbap, the kim dog (homemade sausage with kimchi and gochujang), Korean fried chicken, and hangover stew, otherwise known as sundubu jjigae. We particularly liked rice cakes in spicy sauce--pleasingly chewy, sprinkled with sesame seeds and sugar snap peas. And although you've got to pay for the banchan (the array of small appetizers that are usually free), you'll be glad you did. The platter of pickled is cured vegetables are made in-house. The garlicky, chile-heavy sesame leaf is particularly good, as is the spicy celery.







  • 2010 | Sarah DiGregorio's Best Hot Dog

    If you think hot dogs can only be improved with kimchi, then the kim dog is the sausage for you, slipping right in next to its older Polish neighbors in Greenpoint. It's a homemade, juicy pork sausage--snappy, garlicky--garnished with Mrs. Kim's kimchi and a mix of ketchup and gochujang, the sweetish, thick Korean chile sauce. It has about a thousand times more flavor than your average dog. I wish they sold them on the Coney Island boardwalk. More »

    When River Barrel opened in Greenpoint in January 2009, it served that familiar brand of New American/gastropub/global comfort food: burgers, duck spring rolls, truffle mac-and-cheese, etc. It was a safe bet, unlikely to piss off or excite anyone ... More »
