September in Seoul - Palsaek Samgyupsal [Day 7]

Do you like Korean BBQ? Kids like it so much, and we often go to Korean restaurants in Singapore for Korean BBQ too. But, let's taste the authentic Korean BBQ in Korea...

Palsaek Samgyupsal (팔색삼겹살)
Address: 18, Baekbeom-ro, Mapo-gu, Seoul

No queue outside doesn't mean that not crowded inside...

... though still have available seats as the restaurant is quite spacious.

Palsaek Samgyeopsal (Eight colors flavors of pork belly meat), which seasoned with 8 kinds of special sauces (ginseng, wine, garlic, pine leaves, herbs, curry, soybean paste, and pepper).

We're guided to our seats by the waitress, who can converse in Mandarin.
She asked us to hide our belongings inside the stool to avoid smelly smoke
from BBQ. What a brilliant idea~!

In just a few minutes after we ordered 8-color set Samgyupsal , the waitresses 

filled up all the space of our table with Haemul Jjigae (seafood stew), Kimchi, 

lettuce, garlic, vegetables, and salad, and... 

8-color set Samgyupsal on this special wooden plate that stated 

each of the flavors in English, Chinese and Japanese languages

Not to worry if you don't know how to BBQ them, as the waiters are going around and ready to assist customers to grill, flip and cut the samgyupsal to biteable size for you even without you asking them for help. Excellent service and everything is just so convenience:

The grilling plate has hole and it's a bit slanted, so it's easy to discard the excessive oil 

from pork fat without the need to tilt the plate to the special built-in container on the table.

Self-serving cart for vegetables, kimchi, pepper, onion and ssamjang.

growling tummies asking for juicy and tender samgyupsal~!

Ssam style & BBQ pork with salad ^^

Menu with the price list hanging on the wall:

* 8-color set: 30,000 won

* 3-color set: 28,000 won

* Premium Samgyeopsal set: 43,000 won

* Each seasoned samgyeopsal (150 gr): 10,000 won

Highly recommended! It's really worth the price, especially you compare with the pricing in Singapore. The portion is actually enough for 2-3 adults, and you can taste 8 kinds of seasoned pork belly at one go~!!!
