We always stop by Majang Meat Market whenever we are in Seoul, sometimes more than once and this time is no different. We arrived later than our usual dinner visits, and went to our usual shop to buy the meat. We bought a fair bit of Korea’s Hanwoo beef, as well as some pork neck and pork belly. The owner of the meat stall remembered us and threw in some prime ribs and gave us a slight discount. Based on our preference of having a charcoal grill (rather than an electric grill), they brought us to an eatery where we paid KRW6,000 per person to grill our meat. Rice, noodles, soft drinks and alcohol are charged as ordered or consumed. The marbling of the beef from the best grade of Hanwoo beef is beautiful, the grilled beef simply melts in your mouth. We always enjoyed our meals at Majang. Do ask for trash bags to keep your bags and jackets so that they do not smell after your meal.

Incredible beef Wicked food Went to market first to buy our meat from: Sonkii Spoke English and very helpful helping us pick out a wicked selection of beef. About £50 for a feast. They then took us to: Nammun Hanwoo Sutbul Gobchang Where we sat around the bbq go cook it. They gave us all the sides (Kimchee, veg etc) and water for £15 Cute restaurant…. But the food was out of this world Best beef ever: well worth it

It was our first visit to Majang and we were not disappointed. We went on a Sat afternoon around 2+pm and it was not crowded. There were many shops to choose from… in the end we bought from a guy who was really smiley! He recommended a platter with different cuts and sufficient for 2 persons, he also threw in a small packet of meat as “service”. The restaurant we were brought to was ok… but they charged for an extra plate of lettuce. I’ve learnt that the restaurants are opened to about 11pm and the stalls selling the meats are opened till 8pm. Whilst not all stalls will be opened everyday… but they are not all closed on the same days of the week, so lunch and dinners there possible every day of the week.
