I've been looking for a good Korean place to try in Birmingham. There's at least one on Green Springs I may try next time I'm down.


Man, I miss Shinsegae. I always bought their various kimchi dishes to go just to have whenever I wanted them. Good thing Auburn also has plenty of good Korean restaurants!


I haven't tried any of the ones in Auburn yet, mainly because every time I'm there I'm with people who want to go to Hamilton's or Amsterdam for the same chit the had the last 38 times they were there.

Which Korean places are best?
