Travel feature: Spice challenge failed.

We thought we could eat spicy until we met this chicken. We're embarrassed to say, we dunked it in water and even scraped off the skin, but nothing could help us eat more than two bites. 

This is the name and logo of the restaurant in Seoul, Korea. If you know where this is, send us a message. Thanks!

Travel Feature: Dinner fit for an empress.


Hidden in a hutong where laundry is still hung out to dry and far away from the crowds of tourists is a restaurant owned by a family with lineage tracing back to the kitchens of the Imperial courts that once existed in Beijing's history.

We had more than 20 dishes for roughly $25 per person and each bite was more decadent than the next. You won't find this in Monterey Park, we guarantee.
