Default Korean BBQ Etiquette

I thought I would ask all the K-town junkies here about BBQ. I often go to eat Korean BBQ at Soot Bull Jeep on 8th and Normandie and wanted to know if its OK to ask for a box to take home the leftovers. The wife and I never finish the food and always leave the yummy delicious food on the grill. I have never anyone take food home and didn't know if it is proper.

Is it OK to ask to take home the leftovers at a Korean joint?

screw the etiquette, you paid for the food, cook it and box it home. one of my pet peeves is wasting food. wasting food FTL.

whenever i eat out, and there is something left over, i always box it home even if i don't plan on eating it later so just in case i see a homeless person i can give them what i have. and i'm sure its not too difficult to find a homeless person in ktwon or LA

no u cant. ktown its an all u can eat buffet that u can only eat at the restaurant. its like the same as going to hometown or any vegas buffet and after finishing ure meal, asking for a togo box to put it in.

they will charge you if u want some to go. they actually charge u for leaving the meat on the grill as leftovers but i guess cuz they cant communicate with u they dont charge you lol.

but to answer ure question, no.

Soot Bull Jeep is not an all you can eat place. I didnt even know they had such a thing in K-town (note to self, hang out with Danny). I always buy two orders. One will be the Kabi (sp?) and either the chicken or shrimp. I just got back from eating BBQ and the bones could have served a good treat for my dog and late night snack for me.

Simply put all you can eat is a no go on the to go boxes,
but all other places where you bought a non all you can eat plate, definately ask for a to go box.

Don't feel bad they don't serve plantanos for me either but let me tell you I spend more time in K-town than I do anywhere else. Korean food is def one of my top favorites and the alcoholic beverages are also..........

LOL I think we had a meet there long time ago, or an s2k meet? I went to the driveway and I was like **** THAT!!! LOL!

I forgot the name of the one I go to. Cheap price, good quality meet and ddang jang jje gae, but bad service. Its all you can eat though! Its in the back of a plaza with a small parking lot, forgot the name though. We'll just go one day hahahaha! (Since you still haven't called to hang out jja sheek!)
