Tzuyang’s reviewHighly recommended
“The gopchang and daechang are tender and the seasoning isn't strong, so you keep eating”
- Daechang (large intestine)BestThe fat is fully rendered, so it's nutty and tender
- Gopchang (small intestine)Not chewy, tender, feels like marinated galbi
- Yang (beef tripe)Crunchy texture that pops in your mouth
- Atmosphere
- A famous old-school restaurant with 35 years of history
- Good for
- Big-eater eating battles, gopchang gatherings
- Tips
- Don't overcook the yang (tripe)
- Grill the daechang until the excess fat is rendered off before eating
