Mom: So… let me get this straight. They give you the raw meat.
Me: So far so good.
Mom: Then you cook the meat in a little oven on your table
Me: That’s the general idea.
Mom: And afterwards YOU give THEM money.
Me: Yes.
Mom: You know… these Koreans are a very clever people.
I always like to start off my culinary pieces with an interesting factoid.
Did you know that all the meat at Korean Grill House is 100% fresh? It’s true! Live animals are stored in a dark, cramped basement in pairs of two. Workers at the restaurant have nicknamed this area the “The Noah’s Arc chamber of death.” Often times certain lucky customers are allowed into the basement where they can choose which animal they want slaughtered in front of its offspring. The restaurant manager assured me the practice was entirely humane, as he brandished his blood covered ivory sword and laughed maniacally.
Now… for legal reasons I have to say that the information I’ve supplied you with above may not necessarily be “fact.” However, if we choose not to be shackled by the chains of objective reality, then it almost certainly is.
The meat at Korean Grill House is served in several small square trays. You are also supplied with a small bowl of rice, which is not meat, as well as several other small bowls containing vegetables, which are also not meat. To drink, unless you specifically order something, you have water containing no meat.
The grill, which is a concave semi-circle, is built into the table.
The cooking, as you may have guessed, is done by you (not Yu, YOU!) Some of yu might think that’s ridiculous. Well, that’s because you’re stupid and have no friends; also your teeth are crooked and your parents are getting divorced. The entire experience, especially when you go with loads of people, is unique and entertaining. I highly recommend going especially to those of you who have not gone before.
