The Sensational Sang Yoon

New, 16 comments

sangsmall.jpgToday's Wall Street Journal profiles Sang Yoon, LA's father of beer and burgers. Insights include the fact that Yoon didn't think the no ketchup policy at Father's Office would be so controversial ("It just doesn't need ketchup.") and that he has Heinz ketchup in his refrigerator at home ("It's not for me. It's if someone comes over and wants it."). Other notable facts: Water keeps Yoon up at night; he's a firm believer in Tommy's double chili cheeseburger; in the last couple of years, Yoon took a puck to the face and needed a titanium implant playing ice hockey. So is Yoon bad or bad ass? Maybe a bit of both. [WSJ]
