He visited one of his friend who lives in Gangwon-do during his business trip and his friend bought him to one of the famous Dakgalbi Restaurant in Chuncheon - Dongnamu-jib Dakgalbi. Dongnamu means Log wood and jib is house; just like the name, the restaurant is built with log-wood. The restaurant always full house especially during the weekend. It is one of the mat-jib that interviewed by 3 major Korea TV Channels ~ KBS, SBS and MBC. Many people would drive all the way to Chuncheon for the Dakgalbi.
Each table is equipped with this large grill pan in the center of the table - standard setup for Dakgalbi restaurant. Dongchimi (cold radish soup) as well as lettuce, onion and garlic slice and ssamjang for the wraps will be serve after order place. The order menu with price listed. The "T" stands for 2 pax or 2 servings. Korean like to use the Chinese character "正" to represent no.1 till no.5.
2 Servings of Dakgalbi which consists of boneless chicken parts, cabbage, green onions, rice cake and red and spicy marinate sauce. The secret of making the dakgalbi famous is lies on their own special marinate sauce. You don't have to cook yourself, the server will stir fried the dakgalbi on the heated grill pan using a steel spatula until it is cooking well.
Koreans usually like to left at least 1/4 of the serving for the fried rice later. The fried rice is not included with the dakgalbi so you need to order the rice separately. The balance of dakgalbi will be move aside, and server will cook the fried rice which consist of lettuce and the spicy red sauce. Fried rice is the highlight of dakgalbi that one shouldn't miss!
