Looking for a unique interactive dining experience in Leeds that brings the sizzle of Korean BBQ and the comfort of hot-pot into one table? Say hello to Mommy Mookrata, Leeds’ go-to destination for table‑top Korean BBQ and hot pot dining—all in one unforgettable meal.
Whether you’re a Korean food enthusiast or simply curious about the rising trend of Korean fusion restaurants in Leeds, this post is your guide to understanding the magic behind Mommy Mookrata’s hybrid concept.
What’s the Difference Between Hot Pot and Grill?
At first glance, the grill vs hot pot debate might look like a matter of preference. But here’s the beauty: at Mommy Mookrata, you don’t have to choose.

- Hot Pot: A simmering pot of seasoned broth (spicy, herbal, or mild) where you cook meats, seafood, noodles, and veggies to your liking.
- Korean BBQ Grill: A built-in tabletop grill that lets you sear marinated meats like bulgogi beef, garlic duck, and spicy squid to perfection.
This hybrid format lets you enjoy the rich, soupy warmth of hot pot and the smoky, charred deliciousness of Korean BBQ in one sitting. It’s interactive dining in Leeds like no other.
Why This Combo Works So Well
Korean cuisine is all about balance hot vs cool, spicy vs savory, and grilled vs simmered. At Mommy Mookrata, you’re in charge of your cooking, your timing, and your taste.
✨ Best of both worlds: Grill your meats while your tofu and noodles soak up the broth.
✨ Social dining: A perfect group experience for pre-concert dinners in Leeds, especially being just opposite First Direct Arena.
✨ Unlimited sides: Think kimchi, spring rolls, seaweed, and more—all refillable!
