The #1 BEST KOREAN BBQ in Seoul South Korea?!

Can't change me It's moving day again, so I didn't know how long exactly I was gonna stay in South Korea So I booked this place till the end of the month stay a couple weeks longer. So Gotta move this place not available anymore. Really like this place though. Last minute dummy check Here we go Set your mind to default You just can't undo Not nearly as nice of a view but got a cool kitchen with a with a kitchen island That's really helpful and a couch is nice. I'm gonna go settle in and go grab some meat Oh Words cannot explain how excited I am about this place So my friend Chris did told me about this place and as soon as you walk in Blasted with the smell of cooked meat and charcoal. They got this whole stove set up in the front They take mass these massive beef bones. They trim off the fat, which I would like a little fat on there Used to I After he trims the fat up and goes on to the fire for not too long maybe just a couple of minutes with the flames just tickles and licks and get all Intimate with the Gobi and then it sits over the straw where it does nothing but soak in all that amazing smoke Finally that comes to the grill. They finish cooking it and lay it on a bone How perfect of a beefy fairytale ending is that and then just sitting on the bone? Dripping oil and the first bite they tell you they have four different dipping sauces There's fermented fish roll salt bean and then wasabi, but they tell you the first bite eat it as is Promise myself I wouldn't cry it might actually be the best Korean barbecue I have ever I'm still trying to make it out of my mind how something can be this good Make sure you take a bite of kimchi in between the bites of beef Just so every single taste of meat can be like the first time It's too good I'll try my best to describe what I just put in my mouth like five times with no additional Sauces were or seasoning. You don't need anything on this. Nothing. This thing was born perfect First of all, as soon as you put this in your mouth You taste a whiff of fragrant smoke and then starting from your mouth Your whole world just starts to melt away and just engulfed by this Insane dimension of cloud of fat and flavor and juice and all your taste buds doing at this point It's just thanking you so much for giving them that the flavor is subtly sweet and tasting marinade It's definitely salty enough. This is a transformative barbecue. This is something you 100% need to try when you come to Seoul It's gonna try with a little bit of wasabi You know what Love it little wasabi. Take some of the grease away makes you appreciate the beef even more This is like some fermented fish roll. I never seen This offered as a sauce for beef before Well, that's a surprise No, I love that little popping fish eggs kind of highlight the smoky flavor of the beef Also, what I love it's a punch on here, especially this this kimchi that they have here. It's kind of icy. It's amazing It's not you're eating kimchi ice cream a little bit, but the ice kind of Highs the spicy flavor of this kimchi on toast too late. You're like, oh my god I didn't think it was gonna be that spicy and it is and now you're happy Look at this the sesame and everything's on top and then kimchi radish everything here with the noodles Oh little slices of pork on the bottom And what you can do take a piece of the galbi wrap it up with the noodles I Love everything here. This is so good. I order another bowl. Yeah, I did Got prepare myself a little bit this time Also can't forget about the soybean paste beef soup Well, I officially love this place so so much I will pop the question tomorrow if it didn't you know scare it away Become all awkward and stuff Some people might not like the soybean paste soup because it's a little funky All that flavor is deep rich so much good stuff in here from veggies to mushrooms to tofu Little bits of meat. Oh my god, it's so good. Oh round two is here And I'll be honest the first time I had this it was getting a little cold because I was down there filming them Grilling this so this is my like first fresh batch. Oh That's so much juice so so happy with this I Might go for round three. I mean the first time I had it it was already Tremendous, but to try it right off the grill is to know that the food gods do exist All that great beefy flavor the fat the smokiness the marinade all that plus the explosion of juice When you're chomped down on that piece of meat, oh by the way after this We're gonna turn down to fried rice So they took the remaining meat from the bone like the meat that's closest to the bone You know the part that has the most flavor they stripped it down grilled it and stirred rice onto it Am I smiling? Feel like I'm smiling. So I'm pretty darn happy with this. Wow. This might be my favorite part first of all, oh Smells like heaven secondly, the rice is spicy fried rice And when you bite down on the beef all that juice all that fat Gets over every single grain of rice as well in the grains of rice It's already touching the fat remnants of the beef. Anyway, I know they do this a lot in Korea where they stir rice onto like Meat remnants and what we're not by far the best one when you meet that perfect person There's a moment where you're like, I know I'm done. I'm off the market. I'm good That's kind of how I feel right now at least for today I want to eat more later But I don't know if I'm gonna eat again after this I just want that flavor to linger with me for the rest of the day Dinner time. Come on. Let's be honest. I was always gonna eat dinner Who was I kidding myself, even though the great barbecue memory will be with me throughout this meal I found this amazing katsu place right beside my new hotel Katsu and omurice and dinner Alice is joining me. So She you ordered a rumune. You did not know your what a rumune is. What were you trying to order? She said lemonade, I thought she meant rumune. Okay, have you opened a rumune before? Are you giving up? So this is for all those you guys out there Who's never opened a rumune, which is one of my favorite drinks in the world. All right, Alice There you go. Get a marble in here. Okay, you snap the tap off Taste your first taste of rumune No, you can't put a straw. There's a marble in there. Oh, I mean, I guess you could You're messing up how to drink a rumune. You like it? Kind of butchered the omurice cutting No That's good. Omurice is much better than what I had in New York. That is creamy and the rice is fantastic. The sauce is good This is good. I love the spice. Mm-hmm. Honestly, that didn't look that good It kind of looked like a little little soggy on the outside But I was kind of crunchy on the outside and the meat is so tender Can't believe how tender this is. It's so tender way better than I thought it was gonna be Wow, I am very impressed by this Today's has been a great meat day for me Wow The combo of wasabi and meat is just the greatest. We got another steak. Look at the marbling on that steak It's magical they get this tender Hmm. I forget going to a fancy steakhouse. Come here and get this stuff. How much was it like $10? Like something like that. Oh, it's cheap Really good steak Hmm We're amazing. It's about to close. So I gotta eat up great lunch good dinner. I know what I want to do tonight I haven't done in so long. First of all best cookie ever Hmm I love these so much. Chase that. Wish I'm quarantine. When you're in Korea You drink quarantine. Wish we had the stuff back in Missouri. We're surrounded by corn My two-week countdown it has officially begun so I'll be here for two weeks when we I'll be flying back to the US I know I've been getting a lot of messages telling me not to go back and honestly I don't want to but a couple things one is my visa is About to expire anyway at the end of the month. So I have to go back regardless at that time Also, we've been working on this restaurant for so many years and there's so many people involved and everyone's got their own livelihoods I don't want I don't want to personally hinder any of that. So I want to go back for my friends my partners and All the staff we have at the restaurant I'm actually already applying for a visa trying to get into Taiwan if I can That's where I'll go after we take care of all the restaurant stuff. So before any of that, I don't do this a lot especially not In hotels, but I feel like I kind of need it. So this place Has a bathtub And it has one of those bathtub Headrest dealies the view is it's not great and I'm really not a bath person But I feel like I need a bath right now. So a couple episodes of startup Sounds like a good rest of the evening. Hi guys, as always. Thank you all so much for watching. See you later
