RIP. While imo it’s not the best soondobu, it was always a reliable place to go with friends after a night out. In LA/OC it was a great intro and gateway to Korean food for many people who never had Korean cuisine. Its a glimpse that there is more to Korean food than AYCE KBBQ. Had many happy memories at BCD over the years, so thank you Hee Sook Lee

This has been a shitty week for LA’s food scene and its barely Tuesday.

Some may have surpassed BCD by now, but Lee invented the set menu that is now inseparable from soondubu as a concept. To me, that’s what really puts soondubu on the map as a distinct experience. In Korea, it’s just another stew, a restaurant might serve it with anything.
