I noticed for some reason the North Jersey places are often spendier
than places over in NYC. I did find a good place (reasonable prices,
good authentic food) over in Fort Lee not far from the GWB one time but
went back to look for it on another occasion and couldn't find it.

My favorite place in Manhattan is Woorjiip. It is in Koreatown and very
easy to find. Koreatown starts on 5th Ave and it is the first business
on the north side of 32nd street going west. They have maybe 6 tables
with grills. My favorite dish there is kimchi jiigae. Their bulgogi is
good too.
