The date

Some restaurants serve you dinner. Jin Soo Sung Chan hands you tongs and politely suggests you cook it yourself. This Guildford grillhouse has earned a near-cult 4.6 across more than 2,000 reviews over a decade, the banchan never stops refilling, and the beef combo for two arrives as a proper mountain of short rib and bulgogi. You cannot doom-scroll while running the grill. Someone crowns themselves grill captain.

How to do it

This is a cook-together date, so claim a grill table and go straight for the beef combo for two, a platter of marinated short rib and bulgogi with soup, salad, rice and a parade of refillable banchan. Sort out who flips and who wraps, over-order on purpose, and don't be shy asking for more side dishes; the refills are the whole point. Budget around an hour and three-quarters, wear something you don't mind smelling faintly of garlic-soy, and ask for manager Andy if you want the warm-welcome treatment. Guildford Town Centre is right next door to walk it off.
