Add liver if you like, and pair the plate with light broth, which comes with free refills. Soybean paste, spicy garlic and ginger-scallion oil let diners tailor each bite. A few tables and a counter fill the Broadway shop.

At 81-40 Broadway, Jai Sang Ma runs daily from 5:00 PM to 2:00 AM, making it the crawl’s late-night stop.
