[edit] Dwaeji galbi

hi.. is there anyone who knows everything about a dish called "dweaji kalbi" and "kalbi gui"? i would like to know more about these dish.. how did they got the name dweaji/kalbi/gui.. and what's basically the difference.. thanks -- kaye

dwaeji galbi combines the Korean word for pig/pork 'dwaeji' with 'galbi', and so basically means pork short ribs in English. This contrasts with 'so' galbi, or beef short ribs. 'Gui' usually connotes a meat which is broiled, so I would guess that galbi gui would be broiled short ribs, but I'm not absolutely certain of the particulars of the dish. --Zonath 03:15, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)

hi zonath, thanks for the immediate reply..i really appreciated it.. also, now i know the right spelling of their names.. now i'm up to researching more details about them (like their history, how popular they are to the consumers, and what makes them special..) can anyone suggest a good site to know more about these korean foods? i'll really appreciate any suggestion..thanks again --kaye


Well, for starters, try googling 'galbi' or 'kalbi', as both spellings are commonly used. Also, the Korean National Tourist Organization has a good site on Korean food here [1] which might be of interest to you. --Zonath 14:11, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Barbecued?

Is this stuff barbecued? Badagnani 16:25, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


It's grilled, usually over a gas or charcoal burner at the place of consumption (usually the center of a table or picnic gathering) rather than over a conventional oven range. I don't know if that fits the bill exactly of 'barbecue'. --ZonathYak 03:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Old vandalism by Japanese IP user

These ip users with the same network host vandalized the page as putting unsourced and false information from May to December. This is just for the record in future because there is highly possible for the user to reappear here again--Appletrees (talk) 10:56, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling

Out of curiosity, why is the article titled Galbi rather than Kalbi? I know they're both valid spellings, but Kalbi gets 6.2 million Google hits while Galbi gets just 212,000, so Kalbi seems to be more standard. Jcb9 (talk) 04:54, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Good point. I wondered about that too, since I've only seen it as kalbi in restaurants. Let's consider this a page move proposal, and see if it generates any discussion here. --MCB (talk) 06:18, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I guess that Galbi is gaining more and more popularity as the prefered romanization (yes, it is just a feeling, no hard evidence) and will eventually 'win'. So I would propose to leave it like it is, kalbi is already directing users to gabli, isn't it? Kbarends (talk) 07:11, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
As Kbarends' saying, the current title follows the Revised Romanization. I agree with Kbarends' opinion. Kalbi is already redirected to here. --Appletrees (talk) 12:18, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Question

When galbi is made from pork ribs, which cut of pork ribs are used? See Pork ribs for a list of cuts. Badagnani (talk) 22:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
