Cooking at home may be a bore, but an indoor Korean barbecue is an adventure. Your server sets white-hot charcoal on your well-ventilated table and then brings out marinated raw meats such as kalbi (short ribs) or Kobe beef for you to grill. Included are about a dozen salty, spicy side dishes known as banchan. If you don’t feel like cooking, dolsot bibimbap served in a stone casserole is one of the tastier traditional rice bowls in town.
