Soot Bull Jeep
About
Soot Bull Jeep, an old-timer on 8th St in K-Town, is one of the few places still grilling over real charcoal at the table. It's smoky, and your clothes will smell like it. The marinated galbi is the regulars' order, and the room has old-school Korean diner energy.
Jasmine says
Real charcoal grilling; your clothes will leave smelling like smoke, and it's worth it.
