After an evening filled with poetry, discipline, and tradition at the Shen Yun performance at the Galaxie in Amnéville, we wanted to extend our cultural journey with a culinary stopover. And what better way to stay in the Asian theme? That’s how we decided to try Gang Nam, a Korean restaurant in the heart of Esch-sur-Alzette, which immediately won us over.
From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere put us at ease: a simple yet warm setting, a delightful aroma wafting from the tables, and above all, a friendly welcome. The staff, discreet but very attentive, guided us through our choices—a real plus when exploring a new cuisine or hesitating between several traditional dishes.
The Star of the Evening? Korean Barbecue.
It’s THE must-try dish at Gang Nam. The concept is simple but incredibly convivial: a small grill built into the table lets you cook your meat at your own pace, making for a pleasant shared moment with family or friends. The meat pieces are well-marinated, tender, and perfectly seasoned. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and prepared with care. The sides are just as impressive: steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, and of course, the iconic kimchi—a Korean staple that’s spicy, crunchy, and perfectly fermented. It added a wonderful depth of flavor to the meal.
We truly appreciated the blend of tradition and interactivity that this type of meal offers. It’s more than just dinner—it’s a genuine culinary experience, both playful and heartwarming. Everything was served quickly, which is worth noting, especially for an evening service.
One detail we noticed: the place is clean and well-maintained, and we got the sense that the restaurant’s management had recently changed—for the better. Everything feels smoother, more organized, and the menu is clear and straightforward.
In Summary:
We left Gang Nam absolutely delighted. It’s a fantastic spot to discover the richness of Korean cuisine, without any fuss but with plenty of flavor and authenticity. It’s also the perfect post-show stop if you’re looking to extend a cultural evening with a gourmet touch. And for barbecue lovers, this is definitely an address to remember!
