“Aged kimchi stew and thin-sliced pork belly at about ₩20,000 per person is great value”

  • Mukeunji kimchi-jjigae (aged kimchi stew)BestAged kimchi simmered with pork; the perfect soju snack
  • Galchi sokjeot dolsotbap (stone pot rice with salted cutlassfish guts)Scraping the scorched rice is great
  • Dwaeji chadolbaegi and fresh daepae samgyeopsal (thin-sliced pork brisket and pork belly)Thick cuts that are satisfying to chew and go well with soy sauce
