About this spot
Chung delivers aggressive, charcoal-grilled Korean barbecue that demands you order meat by the pound rather than fixed plates. The smoky flavor of the galbi and bulgogi hits hard on the grill right at your table, while the house-made kimchi slaw cuts through the rich fat. It is a loud, communal experience in Friedrichshain where the focus is entirely on the sizzle and the shared platter.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order meat by weight (dan) to control your portion size and cost, as fixed plates are often overpriced for what you get.
- Ask for extra ssamjang at the start of the meal to dip your lettuce wraps in before grilling your own marinated cuts.
- Save room for the grilled octopus if available, as it is a unique seafood option that pairs perfectly with the spicy dipping sauce.
