I am not sure where exactly the restaurant is but its somewhere near the Hannam bridge (off Itaewon). The restaurant is small and compact and has plenty of ventilators to "suck" the barbecued air out. Its samll and compact and the restaurant table is downstairs.

You need a good korean friend to lead you there.

Favorite Dish: Its a very simple tasty dish. The pork is laid on the hot metal plate (after a hot container of charcoal is lowered under the metal plate). After the marinated pork is cooked, we wrapped the sliced cook pork with lettuce while sipping the soup (looks and taste like Miso Soup).
There are side dishes of coleslaw looking vegetables and bean sprouts.

Even before you can finish the pork on your hot plate, the waitress will fill more raw pork on the plate.

We were stuffed.

Comparison: about average
Directions: Its somewhere near the Hannam bridge. The scanned photo of the card may be helpful.
