The Ultimate Korean BBQ Experience – Bourdain-Featured Restaurant Tour of Seoul Experience Seoul’s legendary BBQ culture on this group tour to one of the restaurants featured on Anthony Bourdain’s last show in Korea. As consultants for the show, our team recommended this Mapo-style BBQ spot, known for its thick-cut pork belly and galmegisal (pork skirt meat)—a delicacy in Korean cuisine. These premium cuts were featured on Bourdain’s program, making this an exclusive opportunity to experience the authentic tastes of Korean BBQ. This tour isn’t just about tasting food—it’s about immersing yourself in the experience. We’ll guide you through Korean drinking etiquette, teach you about traditional Korean alcohol, and enjoy a variety of savory pancakes and Korean-style tempura. This is the ultimate cultural immersion, where you’ll learn what it feels like to have a typical night out with friends and colleagues in Seoul. As a bonus, there’s an optional third stop at a turn-of-the-millennium chicken and beer pub, where you can continue to soak in the lively atmosphere of Seoul’s vibrant nightlife.
