Two Youngs

This place is a food stand that rests in H-town. The food they serve here is a solid 3/5. The food is super cheap and it is a self service carry out. They offer Korean food and a sushi menu. They have a buffet option for about 12$. The buffet runs from 11:30am to 3:30pm. Although, they leave the food out a bit longer if you are still eating and the time passes 3:30. They left the food out for an additional thirty minutes. I ordered the soonduboo, a soft tofu spicy tofu, and the dangjanggiga, bean paste soup. The soonduboo is spicy and has a refreshing bite. The tofu is super soft and easy to digest. However, I am convinced the food here is not as good as the other stands in the h-town food court. The food here is mediocre. The pros are that the food comes out quickly and the food comes out steaming hot. The cons are that the food portions are smaller and that the flavors are mediocre.

Pretty good korean food for a student friendly price! This is my go to place for bibimbap and soondooboo. Its always piping hot, flavorful, and fills you up! The portions are big and sometimes I can't even finish it (i'm a heavy eater). Their lunch buffet is around $12 and they have a good variety of sushi and hot entrees. But I usually stick to the sushi. It's not the greatest, but it hits the spot when im craving some sushi.There are lots of other options but I usually stick to bibimbap or the tofu soup cuz im not brave enough to try other stuff haha maybe next time.

I've been to this place couple times already and I keep going back for more. They have lunch buffet during lunch hours which is OK for the price. It has some sushi selections as well as some korean dishes such as bbul gogi, dduk bokee, kimchi to name a few. I've also tried their seafood jja jang myun and it is huge with ton of different selection of seafood in it. It's definitely at least for two people. And the noodles are hand tossed. You actually see a man making the noodle in front of you which is pretty neat but kind of loud and little annoying after a while when you're trying to enjoy your meal. Either way, this place is worth a try.

I frequent this carryout/restaurant for quick carry out for dinner after work. The price is reasonable and while the taste isn't superb, it is good enough for grub in my belly so I can participate in the rat race the next day. However, my time with this place is DONE as of today. I lost my menu and found the # from yelp and called. Wrong #. Found the # from urbanspoon. Wrong #.Then my dinner fate turned. Craving for hwedupbap, I called Hasung next door and got the # to Two Youngs. In addition to calling in my carry out order, my intention was to let the place know that their # is wrong on the internet.**following conversation occurred in Korean**Two Young: Hello?Me: Hi. Can I ask you something? [has your # changed b/c the # is wrong on the internet]Two Young: (before I can finish my second sentence) Hurry up.Me: excuse me?Two Young: Hurry up and ask, I'm busy. OMFG!!!!!! Even if they were busy, WHY in the world would they talk to a customer in such manner??????? I will NEVER go back. I can get cheap mediocre food elsewhere. Better yet, I will stick with Hasung who's service and food is ALWAYS excellent. They even helped out their competitor! Too bad Two Young's piss poor service couldn't see it through.

Looking for new food -- like walking in snow -- is often easiest if you step in the footprints of people who know where they're going.You should follow The Kwok's Blog to Two Youngs restaurant in Catonsville for basic Korean food. I stayed right with The Kwok's post and ordered soon du bu, and I spooned up the tofu and seafood stew -- spicy heat for a cold winter night. It's a strong dish. Not outrageously spicy, but thick and filling like any other stew. With kimchi, it was a tray of strong flavors that pleased me, but that did encourage me to grab a palette-cleansing dessert on the way home.Two Youngs is a counter-service restaurant inside the Hanoori Town portion of the shopping center anchored by the H Mart. You order from the items posted on the wall above the counter. Then you wait for the number on your receipt to pop up on the electronic sign.It's a casual crowd. Often, that Hanoori Town is dominated by folks who look to be college students or folks in their 20s. I get the vibe that it's an affordable place for Korean food, simpler food and cheaper bills than places like Shin Chon Garden. If you're at the stage of life where you schedule "date night," I wouldn't recommend Two Youngs unless you know your spouse loves to explore Korean joints. But on a weeknight, soon du bu was a great $9 dinner.The soon du bu comes out in a cast iron bowl with a side of kimchi and a bowl of rice. It's a spicy red broth, thickened with soft pieces of tofu that were my favorite part -- as The Kwok predicted. There was also seafood, including a clam, some octopus and two shrimp. Two shrimp still in their shells. I was reading as I ate. As I chewed the first shrimp, I thought, "This seems familiar, but not familiar. It's like shrimp, but . . . . Oh!" I actually swallowed the whole thing rather than be the guy who spit shrimp out at the table.The Kwok's Blog: http://thekwok.blogspot.com/2009/10/two-youngshanoori-town-soon-du-bu.html

I work in the area, and sometimes have a craving for some sushi. This well kept secret is a blessing in an area where good sushi finds are rare. Located inside of the Hanoori Town market, straight to the back, you will find Two Youngs. Always friendly, I love their selection of freshly prepared sushi, in buffet form. Having not strayed from the prepared sushi and ordered off the seemingly extensive menu, I can only comment on their sushi offerings. What appears to be a rotating selection of offerings from day to day, I can't think of a better place in the area to find a sushi buffet at such a reasonable price. Most of the time my order is take-away, and I'm fine with that. However, they do have a small dining area should you chose to dine in. A hot buffet is also available should you so chose. Maybe one day I'll check that out as well, but I'd have to walk past the colorful and delicious rolls that will more then likely tempt me to, once again, enjoy them.

Food is quite good despite the austere atmosphere. Wish they gave more than kimchi for bonchon however. Big menu. Only take cash.

(10/13/2014) Two Youngs is in the food court, Hanoori Town. There's a cheap AUCE sushi buffet at lunch time. Since it was a cold, drizzly day, bypassed it for an incendiary, spicy seafood soondubu (soft toful soup). Came in a heated stone bowl with a generous bowl of sticky rice, cabbage and radish kimchee. Soup was not too salty, lots of soft, silken, custard like tofu, and a smattering of seafood (looked like the frozen bag of mix you might get at the H-mart next door, dime-sized pieces of squid, mussels, shrimp, scallops) and 1 head on shrimp peeking out at you. Fried Mandoo had a somewhat chewy and tough wrapper, but very crispy; meat filling odd mash of maybe pork and chives, adequate, not stellar. I'm not a stranger to Korean food, but had a little trouble navigating the menu, a lot of things you don't usually see elsewhere, and much of it in Korean only (could even decipher with the pictures). Maybe I'll branch out next time, def looking forward to trying the new handmade noodles. In the middle of a weekday, lunchtime crowd looked like a mix of nearby office drones and little old Asian couples, a few families with small children. Good place to stop in before your shopping and you might even pick up something new.

Very casual place with tasty Korean food, especially for the Baltimore area. The selection's very large, almost overwhelming. I hear some dishes aren't as good as others, but I've yet to try anything I wasn't satisfied with. Try their Kalbi Bibimbap in the piping hot stone bowl. On weekdays they offer a good lunch buffet (as well as a sushi buffet which I haven't tried). I swing by sometimes when I'm craving some good banchan (side dishes).
