Korean BBQ by mall: the four Hwaro branches

All four Hwaro branches use the same menu and prices. Griddle mains cost 250 to 295 baht; mini BBQ dishes for one or two cost 185 to 245 baht; and rice, stews, noodles and sides cost 20 to 195 baht. Prices exclude VAT. Sets include rice, seaweed soup and banchan.

See the Hwaro menu page for dish names and prices.

Korean tabletop BBQ cooked on a cast-iron griddle, with fresh wrapping vegetables, kimchi and refillable banchan.

Meat cooks on a griddle in the middle of the table, alongside garlic and kimchi. Wrapping vegetables and banchan are included and can be refilled. Our Hwaro guide explains the meal for first-time visitors.
