The founder of Weicheng Korean barbecue is a Korean mother-in-law, and celebrities such as He Jiong and Yao Ming have also admired her cooking skills. After closing the Beijing store that had been open for 10 years, the old woman came to Chengdu to found Weicheng Korean Barbecue, which is known as the "Barbecue Double" on Jinyang Road by diners along with the Seoul charcoal barbecue next door.
Weicheng Korean barbecue is equipped with a strong suction smoke exhaust pipe, and the chrysanthemum charcoal used is also smoke-free, so diners will not be troubled by oil smoke during the meal. Under the influence of the Korean mother-in-law's "cleanliness", the baking tray is changed one by one to avoid the impact of the remaining barbecue residues. Weicheng has two tools, grilling net and baking tray, to ensure that the food has the best conditions for grilling, and the grill is easier for diners to use. What is commendable is that Weicheng's waiters are sufficient, and almost every table has a special waiter in charge of barbecue, and the level of dishes is highly uniform. The chopsticks are made of metal, which retains a certain Korean flavor and makes it easy for diners to pick up meat from the oven.
Weicheng Barbecue claims that the ingredients in the restaurant are all from Shanghai, and the back kitchen is equipped with glass doors and windows, so that diners can see the cleanliness at a glance. Pork needs to be deacidified for at least 4 days after arrival to ensure that diners can get the best taste when they eat. The restaurant's signature dish is thickly sliced pork belly, which is fried on both sides until browned, and dipped in a garlic sauce that is made to serve with pork. It is recommended that diners wrap lettuce and eat, and the oiliness caused by pork belly can be well eliminated.
The most popular dish in the store is the snowflake beef, which has thin slices and evenly distributed snowflakes. Since the snowflakes are grilled with brass mesh, it is difficult to grill the meat, so you can let the waiter do it for you to avoid wasting good meat. After grilling, the snowflake fat dissolves slightly on the surface of the meat slices, and the juicy embellishment makes the snowflakes plump and tender. Diners who like to eat a lot of meat can try the best beef ribs, which are lean and plump, and the firm fiber is appetizing.
The Korean mother-in-law is not in charge now, and the restaurant's home-cooked dishes such as Korean fried rice cakes, bibimbap, and cold noodles are not outstanding, and they are at a level where they can be tasted. In the case of waiters participating in the barbecue, the rate of barbecue is significantly accelerated, and it is slightly inconvenient to have no insulation facilities such as thermal insulation grids.
There are no private rooms, so diners who are looking for privacy may be disappointed. In addition, there are often long queues at the restaurant during meal time, so it is recommended that diners arrive early.
