Sinchon beef BBQ restaurant: 450g beef platter at Jjaengbanjip8292
Jjaengbanjip8292 Sinchon is a value-for-money Korean BBQ restaurant in Seodaemun, Seoul, a two-minute walk from the U-Plex at Hyundai Department Store Sinchon. On a Sunday evening the writer and a friend ordered the beef platter (450g) for 59,000 won with doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew) and a beer, with the windows open for an outdoor-grill mood. Roomy group tables make Jjaengbanjip8292 Sinchon a spot they have already promised to revisit for a Sinchon or Yonsei University group dinner.
