On a family visit with parents booked through Catch Table, the table shared one serving of cheese pork belly and two regular servings, plus perilla leaf oil pickle, tomato kimchi, tomato-jang kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) and a stone-pot pollock roe fried rice to finish. With the sound of the water beside the table, 2002 Witch's Arpeggio works well as a family meal or a drive-out day trip from Seoul. ## Good to know - **Location**: 142 Surero 661beon-gil, Wabu-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Entry**: Seating from 11am, Catch Table reservation - **Order**: 1 serving cheese pork belly + 2 servings regular - **Review service**: Stone-pot pollock roe fried rice for writing a review - **Parking**: Plenty of parking space - **Seating**: Creekside terrace, indoor tables, outer terrace, 2nd-floor waiting area - **Self-serve bar**: Garlic, pickled onion *as written by the visitor on Sep 23, 2026* Hi everyone!! My friend has been recommending 2002 Witch's Arpeggio to me for ages, so I finally went with high expectations >< Witch's Arpeggio has a valley stream so it's cool in summer, and now with the crisp autumn breeze it seems perfect for a drive out! Being in the mountains means you can feel autumn in the mountains too... plus the food's good — total two birds one stone 👍🏻 ![Exterior of 2002 Witch's Arpeggio nestled in the mountains](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-01-7zyhd-900.webp) ## Parking and booking 2002 Witch's Arpeggio: seating from 11am via Catch Table 2002 Witch's Arpeggio has plenty of parking, and the moment you see the terrace you just go wow~~ It'll probably be even more atmospheric once autumn arrives! ![View of the terrace seating from the parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-02-p7092-900.webp) You can enter from 11am and need a Catch Table reservation. The 2nd floor is cool too, and while you wait you can look at the creek and the fall foliage. I got lucky and was seated right away! ![The valley stream and 2nd-floor waiting area seen before entry](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-03-1hpuz-900.webp) Eating meat while actually hearing the sound of water flowing... isn't that just so good? A view you can't get in the city — my parents loved it too haha ![Outdoor table seating within earshot of the creek](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-04-1k7in-900.webp) ## The house-made tomato-jang, with crates of tomatoes beside it They said Witch's Arpeggio's seasoning is made from their own developed tomato-jang (tomato sauce)! Beside it were piles of tomatoes and jars of aged tomato-jang lined up. ![Jars of aged tomato-jang and piles of stacked tomatoes](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-05-12lfm-900.webp) They give you a stone-pot pollock roe fried rice if you write a review, so of course you have to write one?? You really have to eat it... remember to save room for the fried rice at the end!!! ![Sign about the stone-pot pollock roe fried rice given for writing a review](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-06-1qpmz-900.webp) My dad was so surprised he asked if they sold the tomatoes too haha, apparently they don't sell them haha ![Tomatoes displayed in the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-07-1errx-900.webp) ## How to eat tomato-jang pork belly in the right order First, let me tell you the best order for enjoying 2002 Witch's Arpeggio's tomato-jang pork belly! - Try it plain first - Try it with cheese - Try wrapping it in the rice cracker too - With gim (seaweed) and pickled radish - Organic wrap vegetables!! ![A full spread of tomato-jang pork belly with organic wrap vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-08-mly3l-1200.webp) We ordered 1 cheese and 2 regular, and I loved that bean sprouts came out too, and I loved that they grilled it for us directly... ![Tomato-jang pork belly and bean sprouts grilled directly by staff](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-09-19mol-900.webp) ## Perilla leaf oil pickle, tomato kimchi, tomato-jang kalguksu and japchae And I tried perilla leaf oil pickle and tomato kimchi for the first time and they were so delicious!! Especially the tomato kimchi, you can't even imagine it... so good!!! My mom said it seemed healthy and had two helpings haha And they gave us the rice cracker to prep~~ ![Rice crackers prepared for wraps](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-10-mzrgr-900.webp) Believe it or not, the tomato-jang kalguksu (noodle soup) has no gochujang in it at all... so strange, but it still had a spicy taste??!!! ![Tomato-jang kalguksu made without gochujang](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-11-o0oun-900.webp) Oh!! And this japchae (glass noodle stir-fry)!!! Warm and we finished it before the meat even arrived haha. You could feel the care put into every single side dish..! ![Warm japchae served before the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-12-hr8nl-900.webp) ## The fire show, the melted cheese and the best wrap combination At the end came the fire show~~~ ![The fire show finishing the pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-13-1bn1j-900.webp) And they put cheese on top too, isn't the visual insane??? My parents were so-so on the cheese at first haha, but later they said the cheese was delicious and dug in even more eagerly haha ![Cheese melted on top of the pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-14-3060t-900.webp) At first I tried wrapping it in the rice cracker! Chewy, a different kind of delicious!! That perilla leaf oil-jang is the key! ![Tomato-jang pork belly wrapped in a rice cracker](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-15-18xec-900.webp) The best combo was lettuce, pickled radish, and perilla leaf oil pickle wrapped together — this is the fundamental combo haha. The meat is soft and the seasoning soaks right in, so I highly recommend it haha ![A wrap of lettuce, pickled radish, and perilla leaf oil pickle](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-16-8ivww-900.webp) Also, the self-serve bar has garlic and pickled onions, so make sure to go grab some!! I love pickled onions and it was even better eaten together haha ![Garlic and pickled onions from the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-17-1xtn4-900.webp) > Highly recommend the combo of pickled radish, pickled onion, and perilla leaf oil pickle!!! ![A wrap combo of pickled radish, pickled onion, and perilla leaf oil pickle](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-18-gmkwz-900.webp) ## Finishing with stone-pot pollock roe fried rice, timed by an hourglass And for dessert we ordered the pollock roe fried rice right away, and you just wait until this hourglass runs out!! ![An hourglass timing the fried rice wait](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-19-1y3um-900.webp) Ta-da, my mouth is watering again just thinking about it ㅠㅠㅠㅠ It's already fully stir-fried when it arrives, so you just mix in gim and eat.. this fried rice!! ![The finished stone-pot pollock roe fried rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-20-166zt-900.webp) Have you ever seen a visual like this... I want to eat it again already!!! ![The pollock roe fried rice visual with gim mixed in](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-21-b4p7g-900.webp) If you get extra gim and wrap it up, you'll keep eating without stopping haha ![Pollock roe fried rice wrapped in gim](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-22-exmgn-900.webp) We even scraped up all the crispy scorched rice at the bottom. So glad we enjoyed it that much and ate it all up haha ![The scorched rice at the bottom of the pot, scraped clean](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-23-qjupe-900.webp) ## Seats by the autumn creek: feet in the water, fall colors overhead FYI, 2002 Witch's Arpeggio also has tables inside~~ and there's a terrace-style setup both inside and outside, so keep that in mind!! Opened in 2002 and still loved to this day, Witch's Arpeggio!!! ![The valley view with autumn foliage starting to appear](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork-24-1301e-900.webp) After finishing everything, I dipped my feet in once and it was so refreshing~~ Can you already see the fall foliage~~?? Highly recommend it as a Namyangju autumn drive combined with a family meal or date spot!!! ## Where it is - 2002 Witch's Arpeggio (2002 마녀의 아르페지오) - 142 Surero 661beon-gil, Wabu-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 남양주시 와부읍 수레로661번길 142 - 37.6220965, 127.2636562 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/2002%20%EB%A7%88%EB%85%80%EC%9D%98%20%EC%95%84%EB%A5%B4%ED%8E%98%EC%A7%80%EC%98%A4/@37.6220965,127.2636562,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@back-booth-seoul/namyangju-witch-arpeggio-valley-pork/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
