Why here

A longtime Hanwoo beef-grill spot near Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, known for thick-cut chadolbagi (beef brisket) and galbisal at prices that stay reasonable even as Hanwoo costs climb, plus a beef tripe hot pot (so-gopchang jeongol) regulars order alongside the grilled cuts. Evening waits are routine, run through CatchTable's on-site waitlist rather than reservations. Featured on Kim Three Meals (김사원세끼).
