Chaewon Gamjatang

Address

Description

These days, many gamjatang (pork backbone stew) places have really raised the bar, and there are tons of good ones—but this place stands out with its own unique twist on flavor. The pork is so tender it practically melts in your mouth, with no unpleasant odor at all, and the portions are generously large. Many reviews recommend adding extra greens (ugeoji) to your stew for an even better experience! Here’s a tip: try scooping some broth into a small personal bowl, then add perilla seed powder or black pepper—it’s a fun way to enjoy the flavors in a new way! The restaurant is small and easy to miss, but among locals—and especially hardcore gamjatang lovers—this place has become a go-to favorite once they visit!
