Founded in 2009, Kim Jong Grillin is a Portland food cart institution by Han Ly Hwang noted for its bold Korean flavors and high quality ingredients. Han’s menu runs the gamut: from bibim boxes, kimchi fried rice, and traditional Korean BBQ, to his award-winning hot dog and wild take on the crunch wrap—all at the cart’s new location at The Heist food pod in on 47th and Woodstock in SE Portland.
With mentions in Bon Appétit, Eater Portland, and Portland Monthly, KJG has cemented itself as one of Portland’s premier food destinations over the last decade and a half since opening. And it’s gotten even better: our latest spot at The Heist is notable for having a bar, indoor and outdoor seating, pinball machines, and almost 20 different neighboring food carts to pick from.
Kim Jong Grillin offers a variety of catering options, including drop-off catering, on-site catering, and custom menus for special events like weddings, birthdays, corporate events—you name it.
