There is a new mall in town and like many we were curious to go check it out. Waiting until the busy crowds died down, boyfriend and I and a couple of our friends headed to Airside to see what was new. And this place was new. 유명진의 육미정담 肉味情談 is a new Korean BBQ restaurant that is originally from Busan. Known for their pork, we wanted to give them a try. And it appeared there were many people interested as well as there was a good crowd waiting for it to open for dinner service.The inside was sp
The inside was spacious with tables in secluded areas to give a bit more privacy.
Menu is in English, Korean and Chinese. They have dinner sets and also a la carte. We decided to order a la carte because we wanted more meat.
They also start you off with various starters: pumpkin salad, soysauce marinaded cabbage, pickled daikon.
Kimchi, spicy pickled daikon, bean sprouts and spinach salad was also available. They also provide unlimited cheese egg and kimchi egg poured on the side of the grill.
A large drink list is provided and we got ourselves fruit sodas ($42 each). Sweet sticky syrup was on the bottom of sweet soda water.
The Flower Pork Belly ($268) was nicely presented in circle to look like a flower. Very thinly sliced and had a strong pork taste. We grilled it to super crispy like bacon.
The Masterpiece Snowflake Pork Belly ($258) is the meat photo they have at the front of the restaurant of the Korean man ripping apart meat from his hands. We had to get that! And what you get is a huge chunk of meat. The fat is scored so when you slap it on the grill, it won't curl up. Thick and extremely juicy. Combined with all the fat content, it was literally melt in your mouth.
We also tried a beef item. Rib Cover Meat ($360) where the meat was removed from the bone into thick cubes. This was marinated in a savory Korean BBQ sauce. Wasn't chewy even when we over grilled it.
We finished off with a Stone Bimbimbap ($98). The toppings were fresh. The rice clung to the gochujang very well. I liked the raw egg yolk addition so it gave the rice more sauce.
Perhaps it was new, but there is a long wait for a table even on a weekday. I can't imagine what it would be like on a weekend. Quality of the meat was very good and the place was clean with good ventilation. They do help you grill the meat as well.
