Woo Lae Oak Korean Bows Off of La Cienega

La Cienega's Woo Lae Oak has ceased operations. OpenTable donzo, website down, the phone rings and rings. Management confirms the shutter stating a raise in rent. Woo Lae Oak has spawned many an offshoot in other cities, sadly many of which did not succeed. On the bright side, there's still Bann Restaurant, and a zillion other unsung Korean gems distributed throughout K-Town. [EaterWire]
