Charcoal Korean BBQ near Kkachisan Station: ₩2,900 beer, Gwangseonjip

Gwangseonjip Kkachisan Station Main Branch is a charcoal-grilled Jeju black pork restaurant a two-minute walk from Kkachisan Station in Gangseo, Seoul. Two of us ordered the 540g mixed half platter, which includes braised green onion kimchi and three cuts — samgyeopsal, kkodeulsal and ppolsal — served with a spicy bean sprout sauce, while a summer event put draft beer at 2,900 won. With vitamin packets, jasmine welcome tea and corn cheese on the house and no greasy smell in the room, Gwangseonjip made for a comfortable, well-priced meal.

Guro jokbal alley: fresh hand-cut kalguksu set at Sindorim Sambaekga

Sindorim Sambaekga is a Korean restaurant in the jokbal (pig's trotter) and bossam alley right outside Sindorim Station in Guro, Seoul. The ₩51,000 jokbal-kalguksu set came with a cold appetizer, free barley rice, persimmon-seasoned kimchi, and 100% fresh hand-cut kalguksu noodles. The odorless yakgam pork and fresh noodles were good enough to lock in a repeat visit.
