- The Korean Chinese category mainly consists of restaurants whose owners are ethnic Chinese but whose families lived in Korea (there are also some places in Korean supermarket food courts). For the restaurants, some menus like at Great China integrate Chinese and Korean Chinese dishes, others have separate or untranslated menus with Korean Chinese specialties, others only serve Korean Chinese dishes. I’m adding a new category for Korean restaurants with Korean Chinese dishes. Pollo Pollo (Pleasant Hill), owned by the same family as Ohgane, Mixed Grain, Bowl’d etc. according to the Mercury News has a mostly Korean menu, but also jjampong, regular and seafood Jajangmyeon (handmade noodles!), sweet and sour pork, glazed potato (is this the same as the Dongbei dish.). Yelp photos show danmuji (yellow pickled radishes), but pickled onions instead of the typical raw onion and chunjang dip. Dong baek in the Tenderloin has jjampong, Jajangmyeon (homemade noodles), and udon.
- Korean Chinese Roll n Noodle opened in Hankook Supermarket’s food court in Sunnyvale (there’s also Kyopo in the Super Kyopo Plaza and Yuyu Zazang at H Mart S De Anza (San Jose)); I don’t know if there’s a Korean Chinese place at the other H Mart currently)
