What you should know about Gen Korean BBQ House.

This approach emphasizes communal cooking and conversation. Alongside the grilled meats, Korean barbecue restaurants serve a rotating spread of banchan, small side dishes such as kimchi, pickled vegetables, and seasoned greens that balance the richness of the barbecue. Modern restaurants like Gen expanded the concept through all-you-can-eat formats that encourage diners to explore a wide variety of cuts, marinades, and accompaniments during one long, lively meal.
