Han Bat Sul Lung Tang
4163 W 5th St, Los Angeles, CA 90020
(213) 383-9499
For those mornings where you’re really regretting the decisions you made the night before, bone broth has everything you need to rejuvenate your body again. It’s no secret that the sul lung tang, an oxtail beef bone soup, served here is some of the best in Koreatown. No seriously, ask your friends who frequent the area. Not only are they generous with their housemade kimchi, but they also don’t skimp on the meat. Don’t forget the extra green onions on top!
Open Monday-Saturday from 7am-9pm and closed Sunday.
BonJuk

Whether you’re feeling sick from a cold or from those soju shots you downed, BonJuk’s porridge is just the remedy you need. From mushroom and oyster, to kimchi octopus and chicken ginseng, there is a bowl for you. They even have one specifically made to aid in detoxification. Each porridge comes with a small selection of banchan including a cold radish soup, kimchi, spicy cold squid, and soy braised beef.
Open Monday-Saturday from 8:30am-7:50pm and closed Sunday.
Eighth Street Soondae
2703 W 8th St, Los Angeles, CA 90005

Korean blood sausage is not only rich in health benefits, but also rich in flavor and healing powers following a night out. This type of sausage is mixed with cow’s blood, sweet potato glass noodles, ground beef, and vegetables, and while it isn’t for everyone, this spot is definitely worth a try for those who are ready to be more adventurous with their palate.
Order the soondae gook, or blood sausage soup, served with fresh banchan of course.
Open Monday-Saturday from 9am-8:30pm and closed Sunday.

Nothing like a plate of huevos rancheros at a mom-and-pop shop to fix an otherwise painful afternoon.
