Little known fact about Lucas...he speaks so many languages because he used to be in the CIA but was dropped from the program because he would continuously eat at all the street food carts while on assignment.
+Brian McNay I can totally believe that
+Fanglin Chen you must be fun at parties -_-
+Brian McNay We'd tell you what Lucas' CIA codename was, but then we'd have to make you... disappear. Thanks for watching!
+Fanglin Chen Wow! Looking at his linkedin profile, he went to the college I currently go to!
+Brian McNay He is also a Jeopardy champion? this guy does it all
People really underestimate these kinds of foods; snack corners, food counter, "food court," in places like these dedicated grocery stores, maybe an IKEA, Costco, and such. Truth is these foods are actually brilliant, but some people have "Standards," nobody knows food unless you're an adventurous person.
deep man
"nobody knows food unless you're an adventurous person".
im korean I went there couple times.
that place suck and known among korean.
Tengku Mu'afi Edrin it’s been two years and I’m still trying to figure out what this means
@@exgoogler-inteller do you know better korean restaurants in the city?
this is the first Dining on a Dime episode I ever saw. Lucas is a genuinely awesome person to be around with and that's what makes this show successful.
Lucas is the kindest, chillest dude I´ve ever seen.
In fairness, all he really did was say hello in korean, and the korean names for the dishes, all of which are very very popular dishes. but I've seen the episodes where he speaks Spanish, and that was very impressive.
I like that Lucas isn't "judgmental". A presenter that eat while saying "aww this is delicious!" with energy and excitement has certain charm into it, but Lucas' way of explaining the food he eats engages my "brain"(so to speak) in addition to my tongue (I'm always salivating seeing great food up close!).
And that doesn't include the "fact" (can only look from the screen!) that he is downright humble, never too cheeky to ask anything he doesn't know about the food, and explaining it in a way that everyone would understand.
Keep it coming, Eater! I'm a regular!
Lucas is honestly so down to earth, wonderfully intelligent and my favorite food host of all time. He should be on primetime cable with his own show.
Lucas is great on camera! We need more of him! More seasons! More whatever!
Lucas is the only person I really enjoy watching on Eater. MORE OF HIM!
+Lucas Peterson Youre phenomenal, love your show. Greetings from Uruguay
I used to come here like once a week when I still lived in Chicago. The sticky fried chicken wings in the sweet sauce and the spicy tofu soup (not sure what it's called) are an absolute must try.
That lady has pumping out delicious food since like 2004 when I first went there.
Angry Beaver if you like those wings, go to great seas off kimball. They’re the same Korean style wings 😀
Lucas is my favorite💕best host evarrr👍🏼
You the best Lucas, keep up the great work on Eater! You're one of the main reasons that I'm here!
to answer your question correctly, most restaurants in Korea will ask or offer you rice, or other alternative 'main' meal. You just gotta tell them what you want and they will bring it to you. This is more common in Korean BBQ restaurants, but for those stew/soup based restaurants, they will simply bring rice along at the beginning of the meal.
Love when you engaged those other customers Lucas. You're such a beaming personality.
Aw yea mainlining that Lucas Peterson str8 to the dome.
Yes we want to see more, thanks Lucas

Lukas i love all the episodes dining on a dime i hope all the food that you ordering doesn't go to waste ;)
Lucas is great and humble which makes him so loveable. The only reason I watch this channel 👌😂
Been to this place before on vacation but usually in Korean grocery stores you’ll find restaurants like these very common and very cheap and tasty.
I need more Lucas
my fav food video of Lucas's foodie adventures to date! (1) he ate like a man by not blowing the piping hot soup and dumplings, (2) his excitement exuding while waiting for his food to arrive and (3) his inquisitive nature about the food despite halfway eating thru the meal
Just saw this video on Facebook, I've been coming to this place for 3 years now. But, I only go to buy groceries :( now that I've seen this video I will definitely try their food! By the way I've seen your other videos and I love them, I am a new subscriber :) just love your personality and the love that you have for food! Your doing an amazing job!
+BetsyJannin Thanks for subscribing!
I live down the block from this place and probably have shopped here about once or twice a week over the last 12 years. Really good prices on a lot of things that can be hard to find at other places. It really is as good as he says.
Joong Boo Market is one of my favorite stops when visiting Chicago. I especially love the Pork and Kimchi Mandu that is sold at the Mandu Stand just outside the front door of the market. For those of you who haven't been, I highly recommend to check it out!
+Just One Bite, Please? We had them! Check out the end of the video! Thanks for watching!
We need a show like this in australia!!
aaand the entertainer that keeps me coming back to Eater, just for him. Good job.
Gotta love Korean food. Ended the video with one of my favorites
those dumplings look amazing
Love Joong Boo. Used to live 5 minutes away from the market when I lived in Chicago!
nice video and those dumplings look reeeeaaaallll nice
I love this place. I shop there all the time. Great produce, fish, and meat!!
Those are the stems of the sweet potato plant. They also serve only the leaves sometimes and they tend to be kind of slimy. A lot of Korean markets world wide have shack corners. They are a great deal. The food is prepared to order, hot, fresh, delicious and sometimes a full meal is less than $8.00. Try the traditional mundoo kuk, spicy dehjee pork, chicken wings and bulkogee. They are easy going down and not hard core but very flavorful and delightful for a very fast, private meal with good people and surroundings. You can also ask the vendor what to buy to duplicate the dish at home and voila, you are in the store! Nice share! Thanks!
me being part korean rice is always served with everything its basicly our staple food we also love to feed people and too have diffrent people try our fiod makes us so happy
Besides the fact that you're the best and a marvelous host, I love when the rice cake sucks up the delicious sauce. Yum!
So I go to Chicago fairly often and never knew about this place until I watched how Lucas just devoured all my favs. Went there shortly after with a friend just to do some shopping and eat at this place with a train booked to leave that evening. While we were eating we sorta forgot about time and when we finally remembered to check, we had just barely enough time (maybe) to catch the train. Both me and my friend froze for a sec and then looked at each other, be like "oh f*ck the ticket home let's eat!!!!!!"
When it comes to instant ramen it's all about that Shin Ramen! Thanks for another great video.
I drive by this place all the time and never thought much of it. Maybe I should visit.
ty for your sacrifice the viewers are happy.
This guy is great!
Well a bowl of steamed rice is really the center piece of all Korean meals. In fact, those soups count as "ban-chan" and serve as side dish for your main dish which is rice. After a nice steak dinner with my grandparents, my grandpa would always ask for a bowl of rice...
Oh and at 5:30 that's not root of sweet potato, but rather the stem of the plant with the hard cellulose exterior stripped off. It's really quite delicious and serves as main ingredient in the beef stew.
I've shopped at Joong Boo multiple times but I didn't try the food in the back. I did not see the bun place outside either and that really devastates me. Oh well I guess I'll go now!
Is it just me or does the way he eat is really professional?
I mean, look at the way he eats lol. Damn.
i am no Korean, but my mouth is watering... so good man!!
Just excellent. I live close to Toronto's Korea Town and while I enjoy looking at the food in the stores, do not know what it is or how to cook it. Your video is a great help and I look forward to your next video and my next sortie to KT. Thanks very much!
Looks good!
I totally went to this grocery store growing up... I also remember running straight to the seafood section and fighting with the live crabs with tongs.
It's always cool to see my culture's food being showcased on an American cooking show/channel.
this was good , prompt and effective.
It make me want to go to that Korean Store.
Always enjoying your show. Absolutely loved this one too.
One thing you might wanna know is that the sweet potato banchan you had with the sundubu is not the root (Obviously because the root of sweet potato is sweet potato itself) but rather stalk part of sweet potatoes. Blanched and seasoned.
Oh and your Korean accent was really cute :)
4:10 True! ~50 years ago in Taiwan, a general's well-educated and very pleasant wife, who's a family friend, needed to eat rice in every meal. Because of their social-and-political-professional position, they had to attend various functions that entailed banquets often. The chefs in charge of the banquets always asked beforehand: "Is the lady who eats rice coming? (『哪個吃飯的太太來嗎？』)", so they knew if the needed to prepare plain steam rice just for her.
Labokki has been around at least for 20 years or so; I don't know how "new" that makes it, but it is amazing.
Went here yesterday after seeing this video. Long line & only a few places to sit but food was great and grocery is really good. Next time I'll bring something to wipe the sweat off my face they only have tiny little napkins and I had spicy squid and it had me lit up. Sat with a young and beautiful Korean couple who just moved to Chicago from Hawaii and happened in
+Eater The kimchi served is a variant called gak-doughee which is usually cubed daikon or radish in standard kimchi seasonings. It's generally less fermented and fresher tasting, as well as being crisp and having a differing eating experience from your better-known bok choy style leaf kimchi.
best one yet! luckily close to many korean joints so i'm not jealous like most episodes
I have been in this place a number of times. I have to drive 30 minutes, but it doesn't really matter. I always come back with a butch of Korean groceries!
My favorite place
Lucas is legit dope. I'd rage it up in Seattle with him. More Lucas!
Finally, lucas.
Lucas, as much as I love your videos, I have to correct you a bit on the ordering-rice-in-China-offends-people thing. Ordering rice will not offend anyone, as long as you ask if anybody else on the table wants it and order for them as well. It applies to noodles, steam buns and other "staple" items. It has little to do with dietary differences, just etiquette. But of course if you ask for rice in a noodle-specific place then that's a bit tricky, like asking for a BMW in an Audi dealership.
All in all, I absolutely adore your videos, good presentation, very relaxing for viewers.
+Lucas Peterson definitely not true
I'm a bit confused in that part too, I mean, isn't rice one of the main staple in China too besides noodles? Why would they offended and kinda weird about it
Loving that SKA in the beginning. HEY HEY HEY
Here is why Lucas is the perfect host for any food related shows. He makes anything he eats very appetizing. I've had plenty of Mandu (korean dumplings he ate at the end) in my life, and I've never been a huge fan of them. But watching Lucas bite into one of those made me want to eat one really badly.
That is right Lucas, we need to have rice to make our tummy full! 🤗☺😋
actually in Korea, rice is almost like a staple food. Sticky rice in Korea is pretty popular and popular to other Asian cultures because the consistency is so different from that of regular rice you'd taste in a typical Asian restaurant.
Go to a Dutch restaurant next, I wanna hear him speak some dutch.
Unfortunately, no. Not that the food isn't good, but very rare in my area.
There might be some good bakeries in LA.
Kanye East I have never seen a Dutch restaurant anywhere.
Lucas the man
Damn Lucas, I study at the University of Illinois and I've been super curious about Chicago food, because it's my favorite American city so far. Thanks for the great insight into the Chitown culinary scene!
Lucas is the Mister Rogers of food shows.
The Love Life Of An Asian Guy brought me here and now I can't stop watching Lucas' videos
Hi Lucas btw the "sweet potato root" is not the root of the sweet potato. They are the stems of sweet potato. I think the lady got confused. Also, in Korea, rice is extremely common and all soups such as the ones you ordered comes with a side of rice.
Lucas has a really great, unpretentious way of describing the food he is eating.
i love that lucas plays the part of a homeless person in this series. adds authenticity to the features.
