This plaza is really interesting and so good for Korean food hunting.

This restaurant and the name look familiar to me.
Is this the place I had the nice Korean ginseng chicken soup?

I like to eat Korean BBQ in Bangkok, they are very different and better than those in HK.

@Stella: u hv never been here, the one u know is in my 2007-April-24 post

Tommy you are right. Korean food, especially the chicken soup with Ginseng, tastes a lot better in BKK than in LA.
In fact, 90% of the food tastes better in BKK than in LA(including western food such as Italian and French).
The remaining 10% includes Shanghai food, steak, street snack such as "bad smell fried tofu", and HK "tea cafe" style of eatery such as Garden Cafe.

I think I have been here 3 years ago and we were considering to try it one by one from Arirang towards the inside.

OH yeah, now I remember the one I had the good chicken ginseng soup is called Arirang.
