That made my day, thank you.

I've been remiss to chime in here. A few months ago, operations of Great Seas were taken up by my good friend's family, the Wangs, who are restaurant industry vets with Chinese- Korean heritage.
From Dan Wang's Facebook page back in June:
"If you know the Great Seas menu, know this: for at least the first year nothing will change. Then we will make small and slow improvements to select dishes--things my parents made better back in their '70s and '80s restaurant days. But we are gonna go slow. The dive interior has been cleaned up and lightened up but you will not be disappointed; this ain't no over-designed art project hipster bullcrap gentrification deal. This is about the solid comfort grub that is and always will be Chinese-Korean food, and that the Korean, Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese, Black, White, and Jewish customers have grown to love."

I trust you meant "annals"?

What's the best way to reheat these beauties?

It also appears from reviews Great Sea offers Korean/Chinese dishes like Jajangmyeon, Tangsuyuk and Jjamppong, but I’m not seeing those items listed on their online menu. Wondering if anyone can confirm and has sampled these dishes from here too?
