Supposedly for two, but couldn't finish this (especially with the free-flow ban chans โ they're super generous!). You get four chicken and pork skewers, plus pairs of lamb, beef, sausages, shishamo, oyster mushrooms and bacon-wrapped enoki skewers.
The auto-rotating machine is something new and fun to experience too! While the staff assists with the cooking, do keep an eye on ingredients that cook/burn easily like the garlic chives. Ours burned on one side, though they promptly replaced it for us without having to ask! It can get pretty busy but service was impressive.
For Korean barbie with a yakitori-inspired twist, look to this cosy joint on Craig Road. Instead of sliced meats, Kko Chi Bar specialises in skewered meats, which you barbecue at the table over a charcoal fire. We like that the auto-rotating grill ensures the meats won't get overly charred on one side! There is a minimum amount of 10 skewers when you order off the a la carte menu, so for ease, we recommend that you take one of their sets instead. Set A ($45) is good for two to three diners, and offers a sizeable and varied selection of marinated meats and veggies. They also do chicken, pork, beef and lamb-specific sets (from $17 for 10 sticks), a less heavy alternative that may be more suited if you're popping by for after-work drinks and a bite. Beers start from $10; soju from $16.
