Tastebud : Chingu Korean BBQ

16 December 2025

Today's dinner is Korean BBQ. I had Korean BBQ the first time at Asahi BBQ and it was a usual barbeque meal for me. But this one is really good. We had gochujang-marinated pork belly and bulgogi-marinated chicken thigh fillet. We did not have any marinated meat at Asahi. The marinated meat was very tasty! However, quite pricey. Not surprising as this restaurant is located in the town center. 

I had a Chingu set SEK499 that has 200g of meat which consisted of Ribeye (or known as Prime steak - cut of beef from the rib area) Blue Label from Argentina, brisket (a cut of meat from the breast or lower chest of beef) from Spain, chicken from Sweden, pork belly from Sweden. The set includes mushroom, zucchini, onion and bell pepper, rice, salad leaf and threee types of sauces - sesame oil, bean chilli paste (ssamjang) and korean barbeque sauce. There are 5 banchan (side dishes) - pickled radish, bean sprouts, pickled cucumber, sweet potatoes noodles (japchae). Sauces and side dishes are refillable. Description per menu.

Another set is Gam set which includes Waygu beef from Japan. SEK699. I think it is quite expensive and I was worried if it will be too much meat but it was not a lot of meat after my meal. We could have ordered this set too. 

We grilled the non-marinated meat first. On the grill is ribeye and brisket. We were given a pair of scissors to cut the meat into smaller pieces. A waitress helped us to set up the grill by arranging the vegetables and the meat. The meat came in a nice fancy box.





The gochujang-marinated pork belly. My favourite!




Surprisingly, I did not smell too much of barbqeue smoke. The fan on top of the grill helped a lot.
