Angry Korean BBQ
The basics
The Angry Korean is a restaurant located in South Jordan that focuses on Korean food with several fusion twists. The restaurant is the work of Peter Kim and Young-Ho Kang, two Korean chefs with strong backgrounds out of state.
Kim’s includes a stint at Momofuku under David Chang – NYC’s king of umami – before moving onto Michelin starred Korean eatery Danji. Kang – a seasoned sushi chef himself across the US and Korea – met Kim here in Utah.
