gyu-kaku


new york, ny

this was my first time trying japanese bbq. it's very similar to korean bbq (they even have kalbi, tofu chigae, etc.) except that it's a shabu-shabu version of korean bbq. you can choose various meats and vegetables and then you use your personal tongs to cook the food piece-by-piece to your liking.

okay, not as good as soon won galbi, but it was still very tasty. derek and i ordered the garlic kalbi, regular kalbi, brisket, and ribeye. you can choose what marinade you want on each meat. my favorite was the brisket, of course. derek's favorite was the garlic kalbi. we also ordered the tofu chigae soup which was not as spicy as koreans usually make it. another plus - they have excellent ventilation so we didn't smell like cooked meat afterwards.
