  • MB9+ Bulgogi cook-at-table set

    For $50, the set came with 500g of MB9+ bulgogi, which is thinly sliced beef you grill right at the table. It also included a kimchi soup with just a hint of spice, five side dishes (banchan), and one sotbap, which is stone-pot rice with a crispy crust.

  • Wagyu Steak Sotbap

    My partner couldn’t stop praising the Wagyu Steak Sotbap. The steak was cooked perfectly and was so tender that it practically melted away after just a few bites

  • Giant Beef Rip Soup Sotbap

    If you enjoy soup-based dishes, I highly recommend the Giant Beef Rip Soup Sotbap. The beef ribs came with plenty of meat on them, making it a very hearty and satisfying meal.
