Gyenari–Korean BBQ in Culver City
It has gotten a little cocktail-centric around here, so I thought we’d stop for a snack and talk about Gyenari, a new Korean BBQ in Culver City.
Korean BBQ holds a special place in my heart. Steve (the boyfriend) took me to one of these restaurants on our second date (in the year 400 B.C.). He cooked, and served, and at one point failed to notice a sugar snap pea was still white hot from the grill. He spit that sucker across the table and made cartoon-like pain noises for about five minutes. No pause. No break in conversation. No apologies. The snap pea was hot–what else could he have done? His unabashed commitment to the “spit-take” convinced me I really could date this guy, and date him, and date him….
The restaurant closed soon after and life has been a little darker ever since. Then Gyenari opened in Culver City — like — five minutes ago.
