This wood-walled DIY Korean BBQ's just gotten its liquor license, so you can wash down dishes like thick-sliced pork belly and spicy brisket soup with drinks like the vodka/green tea liqueur Green-Tini, or sip soju infused with everything from Asian pear to lychee to pineapple. The best deal's the Secret "A-Shin Man" special: $12 for a shot of Crown, a beer, and the "anjou" of the day, anything from ribs to fried crabs to dried squid (eat and drink, anjou will be merry).
