The handmade Korean pork galbi was listed at ₩19,000 per 250g. - 🥩 Korean pork marinated galbi, 3 servings - 🥘 Doenjang stew (soybean paste stew) ## Yukhoe among the side dishes, plus chilled or spicy naengmyeon ![A variety of side dishes set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-11-1ywhe-900.webp) ![Yukhoe served as a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-12-4efrr-900.webp) There was a good variety of side dishes to pair with the galbi, and I was pleasantly surprised to see yukhoe (Korean-style beef tartare) among them. It was fresh, chewy, and well seasoned — this alone was enough to get my appetite going 🤭🥩 ![3 servings of Korean pork marinated galbi on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-13-5hz01-900.webp) I was even more excited thinking about eating it alongside the galbi 🥰🤎 ![Naengmyeon included with the galbi order](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-14-1co52-900.webp) ![A bowl of naengmyeon, chosen between water and spicy mixed style](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-15-5fc2h-900.webp) When you order galbi here, naengmyeon (cold noodles) comes included! You can choose between water naengmyeon and spicy mixed naengmyeon depending on your taste, which I liked ☺️🤎 ## How does the charcoal-grilled marinated pork galbi taste? Once the meat hit the grill, that delicious marinade smell started drifting up and I couldn't wait to eat haha. ![Marinated galbi grilling to a golden brown on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-16-1fkup-1200.webp) They grilled it golden brown without letting the marinade burn 🥰 Just watching it cook to that appetizing color made my mouth water haha. The galbi sizzled away, cooking to a perfect golden brown — the smell alone was amazing. That was the moment I really wanted to take a bite haha. ![Fully cooked marinated galbi with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-17-1qt63-900.webp) Once the galbi was fully cooked and golden, I tried it together with the side dishes. The sweet-and-salty marinated galbi tasted even better paired with the banchan (side dishes) haha 🤎 The two of us kept saying "this is so good" the whole time we were eating haha. We ordered 3 servings, and before we knew it, the plate was completely empty 🤭 ![Doenjang stew ordered as an extra](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-18-1lr6e-900.webp) While eating meat, I started craving something hot and soupy, so we ordered a doenjang stew too. Savory and slightly spicy, with a spoonful of rice and a bite of marinated galbi together — doenjang stew really is the perfect combo with grilled meat haha. It made the meal feel much more filling than eating just the galbi alone 💕💕 ## Dessert at Manpo Galbi: iced coffee, bbeongtwigi and ice cream ![Dessert of iced coffee, bbeongtwigi, and ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-19-8ntvh-900.webp) ![Ice cream placed on top of bbeongtwigi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple-20-1tg4j-900.webp) After we finished eating and went downstairs, dessert was waiting for us — iced coffee, bbeongtwigi, and ice cream ☺️ It was nice to finish the meal on a sweet note with ice cream, plus enjoy a cool glass of iced coffee 🤎 The bbeongtwigi and ice cream combo was, as always, amazing. Crunchy puffed rice topped with sweet ice cream — so good haha 😋 ## Final verdict: would I go back to Manpo Galbi? Overall, this visit to Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch was a satisfying meal. Above all, the Korean pork marinated galbi we ordered was genuinely delicious, so I know I'll come back here next time I'm craving galbi haha. We enjoyed it so much that my partner and I agreed on a 100% return visit 🤎 If you're looking for good galbi in Yangju, or a spot for a family meal, a work dinner, or a get-together in Yangju, this place is worth considering. Especially if you love meat like I do, you really should try the Korean pork marinated galbi ☺️ My pick for the day was definitely the Korean pork marinated galbi! 🥩🤎 It was so good that I'm already planning my next visit haha. ## Where it is - Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch (만포갈비 양주본점) - 1F, 65 Songnang-ro, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 양주시 송랑로 65 1층, 만포갈비 - 37.7912149, 127.0873715 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%8C%ED%8F%AC%EA%B0%88%EB%B9%84%20%EC%96%91%EC%A3%BC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.7912149,127.0873715,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@paju-quiet-brew/yangju-manpo-galbi-yangnyeom-galbi-couple/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
