Like all the other staff, George works for a wage that makes the owner rich. Like all the other staff, if George weren't at the front of the house, he'd be at the back cooking. Unlike all the other staff, George has a little secret.

Looking for a quick, affordable meal? Woorijip is a Korean deli with a wide variety of freshly made, grab-n-go items like japchae, kimbap, soups, stews (tofu stew, kimchi stew), pancakes, rice bowls, noodles, sauteed vegetables, etc. The portions are smaller. Prices are very reasonable.

The shelf tags indicate how fresh the items are. Everything has a sticker with the price and item name.

Refrigerated drinks are kept near the cashier line.

Wild rice rolls with vegetables ($5): similar to kimbap, purple rice wrapped in nori with carrots, green beans, red cabbage, and radish in the middle. It tasted healthy but bland.

Tofu ($5.50): Tofu squares cooked with eggs, soft and comforting. The sauce was a light soy. It was also somewhat bland.

There is plenty of seating and a few microwaves if you want to dine in. You’ll get 8% off list price for paying in cash.

3.5 out of 5 stars
