Harm Heung Cold Noodle

After every trip I make to Asia, I dread eating for a week in Atlanta because the taste of Hong Kong and Bangkok grubbery last week were still fresh on my chicken lips. I had to do something different this time around... So, I called up a couple chef fwends and said I need some really good food to ease my way back into this town of fast food chains and franchises. They were, too, in fact needing some good grub as well since they have been working like dogs at their place of biznaz. They were craving Korean BBQ and so was I... Harm Heung it was or was it Ham Heng? Whatever they call it or however they spell it, I needed Corean BBQ, STAT.

The drive to Duluth is totally worth it because this joint has been serving the Korean expats for over 8 years. They're still going strong because they are doing it right or else you know I will bitch about it if the food tasted like a rag on a stick. I ain't gonna go into all the nose to tail details, so, take a looksie at the purdy pictures. They do more justice than my greasy chicken lips can say...

(Cover of menu. It's so radical.)

(Don't be scared, it's not from a porn set, they mean you no harm, it's blood sausage. Friggin' delish.)

(Table full of crazy tastee shit. Yes, I like to eat shit.)

(Look at this beast. Prok back bone soup. It's a lil spicy and lil rock n roll. Shit was guud.)

(Corean dumplings w/ squid in spicy broth.)

(Fluffy egg souffle thingy.)

(Prok belly and kimchee with pork fat drippings.)

(Holy shizen, look at them short ribz.)

(Ah, the specialty of the houzen- cold noodles.)

(Spicy cold noodles.)

The owner is a pretty cool dude... He's cool like a Corean James Dean. No wonder he has all these movie posters everywhere up in this piece. The decor is pretty rad, too. Oil barrel table stands, tongue & groove flooring cut to fit as table tops, tin sidings, antique this and that placed around the joint. Lurv it!

4 Stars.
