Description

What would it taste like to grill pork belly on a stone slab made from jade stone taken from Chungju’s Hwaok Cave? Unlike ordinary stone plates, jade distributes heat evenly, allowing the meat to cook more moistly with less loss of juice. It might sound unusual, but this place has been delighting customers for over 30 years, so you can trust the flavor. The pork belly here is slightly thicker than usual. When you order samgyeopsal, they also serve cheonggukjang (fermented soybean stew) on the side—another highlight you shouldn’t miss. If you prefer juicy, tender pork belly over the crispy kind, this is the spot for you. The ssamjang (dipping paste) is homemade, using their own fermented doenjang, giving it a deep, rich flavor that elevates the meat. For the best experience, top a slice of pork belly with ssamjang, add chives and garlic, and enjoy it all in one bite. The cheonggukjang served alongside is filled with well-fermented young radish kimchi, pumpkin, chili, and tofu, creating a savory yet clean flavor. Made with their own fermented paste, the stew delivers a rich, deep broth that leaves a lasting impression.
