Dongtan Korean BBQ weekday dinner with kimchi stew: Jipbul Taebaek
Jipbul Taebaek Dongtan Flagship Branch is a beef rib (udae galbi) barbecue restaurant in Yeongcheon-dong, Dongtan, Hwaseong. The writer walked straight in with no wait at 6pm on a weekday and ordered two servings of udae galbi (thick-cut bone-in short ribs) at 32,000 won each plus taebaek kimchi stew at 7,000 won, with staff grilling and cutting everything alongside mushrooms, bracken and kimchi. Sauces such as black sesame salt and neungi mushroom sauce kept the beef from feeling heavy to the last bite, making Jipbul Taebaek an easy weekday dinner pick in Dongtan.
