(many of these places are open > 24 hrs!!) Now this is good news! Usually when I go out it is to a very upscale type restaurant because I know I can get raw stuff of all kind, especially the steakhouses. They don't blink when I say I want my steak " kissed " on each side no more than thirty seconds (although sometimes I have to explain in detail exactly what i want), or order carpaccio or down a ton of oysters on the half shell. And I love the table side presentations of beef tartar. But going upscale means EXPENSIVE and now you are telling me I can hit an ethnic restaurant and get what I want on the cheap? Love it!! There are some ethnic restaurants in the area that have raw meat dishes, but usually only one. What you describe above sounds to good to be true :-) so I will be checking out some Korean restaurants over the next few weeks.
