Ga Si Ri; Or In Search of Flushing's Best Kalbi

I don't believe that Ga Si Ri is still in business (though I'm happy to be corrected if wrong), which means that I need to find someplace else to satisfy my kalbi craving? Where in Queens should I go to find the best kalbi these days? Bonus points if they serve bo ssam like they did at Ga Si Ri.

  1. Really, nothing? New York's list suggests Mapo BBQ, but I was hopeful that someone here might have additional suggestions.

        I second both Jang Tuh and Mapo for kalbi.
