Recommended by Korean netizens!! Specialty store for grilled Korean beef on a stone pot – staff will grill it for you
I had Korean beef in Seoul before, and I wanted to have it again in Busan. Before the trip, I did some research and found two Korean beef restaurants in Seomyeon, Busan that use this stone pot grilling method. I chose this one – New Hallyu Era Nogeunrol Korean Beef – for everyone’s reference. The price for grilled Korean beef is quite high, and usually they’re okay serving just one person, but one portion really isn’t enough to be satisfied – you should order two types of meat to really enjoy it. Sharing for your reference.

Laoganbei’s freshly sliced wagyu ribeye — only the head chef can grill it for you!
Perhaps due to a fixed impression, most consumers tend to think the flagship store is better than the branches. Of course, this phenomenon is somewhat understandable—not just in Taiwan, but in restaurants across other countries as well. For example, when visiting Hong Kong’s Lei Garden, people would choose the Mong Kok flagship store; if given the chance to eat at Ryugin, they’d rather fly to Japan; even for the faraway Steirereck in Europe, diners try their best to book a table in the Steiermark area.
