Stroller-friendly Yangjae BBQ with sofa seats: Gamdol Yeontan Jip

Gamdol Yeontan Jip Yangjae Citizen's Forest Branch is a briquette-grilled Korean BBQ restaurant near Exit 3 of Yangjae Citizen's Forest Station in Seocho, Seoul. After a long play session at Maeheon Citizen's Forest, the family ordered two servings of coarse-salt briquette pork belly, two servings of gochujang briquette bulgogi and Changdong-ne shrimp egg custard, with sofa seats roomy enough to park a stroller beside the table. Between the basil ssamjang and the non-alcoholic plum highball, Gamdol Yeontan Jip is an easy pick for a group meal with babies along.
