Ulsan pork BBQ restaurant with a free jeon and ramyeon bar: Biniljip

Met up with a close friend for the first time in a while 😆 We were wondering what to eat, figured nothing beats meat, and while searching we heard there's a great meat restaurant in Suam-dong, Nam-gu, Ulsan, so off we went ><

A Suam-dong meat restaurant that feels like walking into a greenhouse

Here's the outside of the restaurant! I took photos before and after sunset. Doesn't it look even more atmospheric after dark? hahaha

This is the inside, and the moment I walked in I was startled by how huge it is?!?! The second you step through the entrance it really feels like you've walked into a plastic greenhouse?!? Just like the name, it truly felt like being inside a biniljip (vinyl house) 😆😆 And that sky, what is that.. isn't it just too pretty 😭

Once you sit down they give you this basic table setting. The tables feel like being on a picnic, and it was my first time eating at a meat restaurant sitting at a table like this, so it was fun too >3< Orders are placed on a tablet.

Ordering the Biniljip Platter and the cheese-bomb steamed egg

• Biniljip Platter (2–3 people) ₩45,000
• Cheese-bomb steamed egg ₩4,000
• Cola ₩2,000
• Bowl of rice ₩1,000

A self-service bar with chive jeon, kimchi jeon and ramyeon

I thought I'd grab a few things from the self-bar~ and chive jeon (savory pancake), kimchi jeon and even ramyeon (instant noodles) are all free!!!! My eyes went wide 👀 I mean, you could fill up on those alone, couldn't you 👏👏👏👏

There are even loads of ramyeon varieties.... Isn't this cheating, boss?!?! What am I supposed to do when it's this good, aaargh (content smile)

Today's Seunseun's pick is!!!! Ansungtangmyun!!!!! This is the ramyeon that will soon be in my belly along with its broth, heh heh heh. I'm going to eat it with the meat!!!!!

Even though it's a self-bar, all the vegetables looked fresh, and there was everything you need: ssam (wrap) leaves, pickled radish for ssam, shredded scallion, bean sprouts and so on 🤩

Like this, there was crushed seaweed, tteok (rice cakes), even salad — such a wide variety, which I loved.

Attempting to grill jeon and failing at portion control

Let's go grill some jeon~~ They said jeon tastes best cooked thin, but yes.... I failed at portion control, sob.... Greedy little Seunseun...... Up to this point it was all fine!!!!!!

It turned into a giant jeon, sob... Still, it's passable, right...? Even cooked like that it was tasty 😭 I'd been hoping for crispy outside, soft inside... 🥹🥹🥹

Juicy samgyeopsal, moksal and kkodeul moksal

I came back to the table with my finished jeon and the meat had arrived haha. The moment I saw the color, an 'oooh~~~' came out on its own — what a sight!!!! It comes with samgyeopsal (pork belly), moksal (pork neck) and kkodeul moksal (chewy pork neck), and I liked that there were several kinds to try ><

The steamed egg came out too, so fluffy that I couldn't help tapping it with my spoon~~~ Egg + cheese is always the right combo.

The meat was in such good condition — full of juice, not tough at all, and not a trace of gamey smell. The kkodeul moksal especially is seriously delicious 👍

I made one lettuce ssam with rice, gosari (bracken), kimchi, garlic and bean sprouts. ☆☆☆☆Absolutely delicious☆☆☆☆

The jeon can cool down while you eat, but if it does you just slide it back onto the grill to warm it up haha. It tastes better hot, right? 😆

Be sure to eat the ramyeon here and there too!!! It cuts right through the richness~ And perilla leaf ssam can't be left out either!!! I ate jeon in between bites of meat and honestly got so, so full.

Verdict: stuffed to bursting with my friend

I had no idea a meat restaurant with this kind of vibe existed — it felt like a picnic and like camping, such a novel meat restaurant!! On top of that the meat looked amazing and was full of juice, and the salad bar, jeon and ramyeon were all so well done that I ate until I was stuffed to bursting >< I was honestly so happy the whole time eating with my friend 😘

Also, the whole time we were eating it was nearly full even on a weekday, and it made sense that it was so busy haha. Biniljip Suam Branch, I'll come back if I get the chance ❣️
