City Hotpot & BBQ

Choose your base, from nonspicy to kimchi or shrimp paste, and make as many visits as you can stomach. It's another K1000 to add do-it-yourself BBQ at your table as an option.

Stacking the bins like a tower of Lego is a satisfying way to eat and well suited to those with a competitive nature. The back wall is also lined with trays of basics, such as noodles, rice, dumplings and ice cream and sweets for dessert.
