Local tips

Buying beef in South Korea

Hanwoo grades

1++ is the highest quality grade, followed by 1+, 1, 2 and 3; menus and labels show the grade.

Imported beef

Restaurants must show the origin of their beef, so menus say whether it is hanwoo or imported.

Cut by grade

Butchers price hanwoo by grade and cut, so the same cut can vary a lot in price.
