Great experience for a direct Taste of han woo beef directly from the butcher. Then cooking it in a BBQ restaurant, usually attached to the actual butcher shop is the best way to get a true experience of butcher to table service.
Nothing beats beef straight from the source. This tour’s all about skipping the middleman and going full butcher-to-BBQ. Glad you got the full Hanwoo experience!
Ron took us on the tour and it was a blast! Very nice experience, amazing food and very nice company with Ron! Super recommended
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the Majang Meat Market tour with Ron—he truly has a knack for making every experience both fun and delicious. Exploring premium Hanwoo beef and diving into the market culture is always a treat, and we’re thrilled it left such a great impression. Hope to see you again for more culinary adventures in Seoul! 🥩🔥🍷
The tour guide Ron was amazing. During the tour he gave great insight into South Korea regarding customs, history and Korea today. The Korean BBQ was fantastic and the conversation was just as well. He even topped off the evening, since it was a Solo tour, by taking me to a place that served a traditional Korean dessert I had been wanting to try. It capped off the experience perfectly!! Thanks Ron. Massiseoyo!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed both the BBQ and Ron’s insights into South Korean customs and history. It’s great that he could make your solo tour special by finding that traditional dessert for you. Sounds like a perfect way to cap off the night! Massiseoyo indeed! 😄
