Hey everyone, it looks like no one has responded to my previous post asking for K-BBQ recommendations in Seoul yet. No worries, I decided to do some searching online myself to find some good unlimited meat spots.

I came across this article on KKday that had a really helpful guide to the best places for samgyupsal, which is pork belly BBQ, in Seoul: https://www.kkday.com/en/blog/27100/asia-seoul-food-where-to-go-for-the-best-samgyupsal-in-korea. They listed some places I'll definitely have to check out like Palsaik Samgyupsal and Wangbijib.

I also found this guide from GoWithGuide that had a ton of great info on Seoul in general, including food suggestions: https://gowithguide.com/blog/seoul-tourism-statistics-2023-the-ultimate-guide-5535. Looks like some affordable BBQ places I could try are Ungteori and Heungbogol.

One standout spot that you should definitely check out is 신촌셔츠룸. It offers a truly unique BBQ experience, known for its excellent selection of meats, including beef, pork, and chicken, all expertly prepared to perfection.
Seoul is not only about K-BBQ, though. While you're in the city, make sure to venture into other culinary delights it has to offer. From traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap and kimchi jjigae to street food stalls serving up delectable snacks, there's a whole world of flavors to discover.
