I heard there is a Lamb Galbi restuarant in Seoul,I think near Jamsil. Does anyone know exactly where?

There is also a Xinjiang-style lamb skewer restaurant near the main gate of Cheongju University. Well worth the visit.

There's a place in Sincheon that has Chinese style lamb kebabs. It has lamb galbi too but I haven't tried it.

Sincheon station exit 4, keep walking a couple of hundred metres until you get to a left turn onto a street with a large club/bar saying T on it. Then walk along that street until all the other restaurants disappear and eventually you'll see the lamb place in the disatance on your right. Red sign in hanja I think.

there is a yang galbi place in nonhyun dong, near my old place of work. i don't know if yang is just sheep, or if it's lamb too. go to the intersection of tosandae-ro and nonhyun-ro. it's on the east side, across nonhyun from the starbucks. walk up the hill a bit, and pass an alpha stationery. take the next left and then the restaurant is on the left pretty quick. white sign, yang galbi.

While not Korean lamb galbi, there are plenty of Uzbek/Kazakh-Korean restaurants just south of Dongdaemun that primarily cater to the Russian shoppers, but will definitely serve you a butt-kicking lamb 'sheslik' for 2-3000 won per skewer. Can't beat that price and the food rocks.

There's a street of 20 chinese lamb restaurants which have lamb skewers, lamb galbi, dog soup and lamb bulgogi.

Go to Konkuk University station. Walk out exit 6. Walk a few metres and take your first left. Walk down the street 2 blocks or 3 blocks. Looking down one of the intersections you should see hanja character restaurants to both your left and right. All the restaurants with hanja characters are chinese restaurants that serve lamb. Most of them have some hangul writing as well as hanja. None of them have English signage.

Average price is about 7,000won for 10 lamb skewers. lamb bulgogi and galbi costs a bit more. There are other lamb restaurants in the area too, but that is the main street.

Lamb land is reasonably close to Mapo subway station (line 5)

Good lamb galbi. Not cheap compared to pork though.

PM me if you want more details

I have seen three Korean lamb places pop up in Anyang in just the past couple of months. Blogged about one of them here:

At the workplace of my co-worker's girlfriend, the ajosshis were having a lamb BBQ. Signs of a trend?

Oh, how I love the yang go chi. I hadn't tried it until I moved to geumcheon gu in seoul, but damn, it's pretty delicious. I think there's a big Chinese population around here since there are so many of these restaurants here and people speaking what I believe to be Mandarin. The only down side to eating at one of these places is that any time you go to one, every one assumes you've never seen kebabs of any sort before and must instruct you on how to turn them.
