If you ever get sick, go to the Korean restaurants (you should find out who makes the best) and ask for yukajang (pronounced similiar...spelling, or yookajong, eh) it'll make you feel better. Its a beef soup. Also for seafood soup you cannot beat champo (Shzam-po). That stuff is awesome. I love Korean food.

The BBQ beef was very good, other tables were pointing to our food and asking for the same. When we first ordered it, our server said she'd have to "ask the boss" if it was available, because the meat might be "sleeping." We figured out later she was referring to the 2-day marinating process. Thanks for the rec, Dave! Better eating through blogs!

Walk down Main Street going north (away from the LIRR trestle/towards St George's Church-big steeple). Where Main Street ends, make a right turn onto Northern Blvd, Kennedy Fried Chicken on the corner. Stay on the right side of Northern and start walking up the hill. Go two traffic lights (the first one for Linden Place and is just for the opposite direction of traffic) and then turn right onto Union Street. There's a Nara Bank on the opposite corner. Stay on the right side of the street. Then it's up to yourself to find the place. Good luck! ~Josh Sharon,

Last time I took the subway on a regular basis there was no such thing as the W train. San Hai Jin Mi is right near Shea Stadium. I guess if you take the 7 train to its terminus at Main Street, you could probably walk from there. Union Street is just east of Flushing Meadows park on Northern. San Hai Jin Mi is on Union a half a block south of Northern on the west side of the street. That's the best I could do. Good luck. If you don't find it, if you manage to get to Flushing, I promise you that you WILL find something Korean. And it might be even better for all I know. ~Dave Sharon,

I actually have a Korean friend visiting this weekend and would like to hang out w/ her in Flushing. I'm in Brooklyn so by default know nothing about Queens ;) What's the best way to get to San Hai Jin Mi by public transport? I looked at googlemaps and having a hard time finding where Union and Northern Blvd cross. Thanks! -Sharon Hello!
