About this spot
COW&PIG Myeongdong delivers an exceptional Korean barbecue experience where you sizzle premium beef and pork directly on the tabletop grill. The menu highlights include marbled Hanwoo cuts that melt in your mouth alongside crispy galbi, all served with a table full of fresh lettuce for wrapping. This bustling spot captures the electric energy of Seoul's Myeongdong district without feeling like a tourist trap.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the 'Samgyeopsal' (pork belly) first as it cooks faster than the beef, allowing you to start wrapping and eating immediately.
- Ask for extra ssamjang at the beginning of your meal so you can dip your lettuce wraps before the grill gets too crowded.
- Save room for the sweet potato fries served alongside the meat; they are a local favorite for dipping in the spicy gochujang sauce.
