bul·mat — the taste of fire

Fire flavour at every table.

Real charcoal at every table, prime cuts you grill yourself, banchan that never runs out and a cold bottle of soju to pour for your friends.

How it works

You cook. We keep the fire right.

Every table has its own charcoal grill under an extraction hood. Staff change the grate between cuts and step in whenever you want a hand.

Free refills
Banchan

Six small plates, refilled for free.

Banchan come to every table before the meat does. They change with the season and the kimchi fridge; ask for more of anything.
