City Guide Review: Yaetmat Seoul Bulgogi (Seoul)

Bulgogi (불고기) ranks up there with foods like kimchi and bibimbap on the list of Korean foods that are well-known to foreigners. Bulgogi is marinated, thinly-sliced beef that is usually grilled with mushrooms, green onions, and glass noodles. With its rich and savory flavor, bulgogi is a safe bet for those who aren’t a fan of spicy food.

City Guide Restaurant Review: Song Jeong Tteokgalbi (송정 떡갈비)

Tteokgalbi is the forgotten sibling of other, more popular forms of Korean BBQ such as galbi (short ribs) or samgyupsal (pork belly). Originating from the city of Gwangju, widely considered to be one of the food havens of Korea, tteokgalbi usually features a combination of beef and pork, shaped into rectangular loaves and grilled over high heat. Think meat loaf, but far more delicious.
