Korean
Shoes off at the door, which tells you where you are before you've seen the menu. This small, old-school Korean restaurant in a quiet Jongno alley has a Michelin Bib Gourmand and two reasons to visit: gamjatang built around a clean, sharp broth of bean sprouts and chives, and jokbal, braised until the skin goes deeply chewy. You pick hind leg for richness or foreleg for softness, and the portions assume you've brought someone to argue with over the last piece.

-
Gamjatang
“Its gamjatang is distinctive for using only bean sprouts and chives to create a refreshingly sharp broth.”
Michelin Guide -
Jokbal
“The jokbal is simmered for hours in a fragrant blend of spices and house broth, resulting in tender meat free of any off-flavours and deeply flavourful, chewy skin.”
