    A pork-belly spot in an Euljiro alley that became famous for its kimchi jjigae instead. Raw pork and bracingly sour kimchi arrive at your table uncooked, a pot waiting for you to manage the heat yourself. Keep it going longer than feels necessary and the broth gets properly funky. Ssam wraps let you bundle the chunky meat from the stew, and a vending machine sells noodles to finish the broth when the solids are gone.

    • Kimchi jjigae

      “Eunjujeong originally specialized in pork belly, but it’s become famous for its kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew), a lunchtime special and a side on dinner orders of pork belly.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
