This was my third visit today, haha. ![Exterior of Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Pork Backbone & Gamjatang in Daehung-dong, Daejeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-01-18jg5-m-900.webp) ![Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Bones sign in the Hyundai Sikdang alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-02-jbm2n-900.webp) ## Where Yeonam is in Daehung-dong, and how the wait and booking work Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Pork Backbone & Gamjatang is in the Daehung-dong Hyundai Sikdang alley, right in front of Hyundai Sikdang. Even visiting at 5:30 pm on a weekday there was a wait, so I'd recommend booking via Naver Reservations before you go (same-day booking isn't possible). This is the Hyundai Sikdang alley in Daehung-dong! Right in front of Hyundai Sikdang you'll spot Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Bones. This whole alley seems to be packed with good restaurants, haha. 🗣️ Waiting tip — this place is so hot right now that even at 5:30 pm on a weekday there was a wait. You register at the Catch Table kiosk by the entrance and wait in the waiting area, but Naver reservations are also available, so I'd recommend booking ahead!! (Same-day reservations aren't possible.) - Hours: Daily 11:30–24:00 (last order 23:30) - Parking: No parking available ![Waiting instructions at the entrance of Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Bones](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-03-1cv6t-900.webp) ![Entrance view of the Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Bones restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-04-i1bhj-900.webp) ## Inside Yeonam: seating, atmosphere and room for group dinners Inside, Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Pork Backbone & Gamjatang is spread across the first and second floors and felt spacious enough for a group dinner. Even so, on a weekday evening every seat was already taken, so if I'd arrived just a bit later I might not have gotten a table. The inside was really spacious. It looked like it could handle group dinners easily, and every seat was full — if I'd been a little later I really might not have been able to sit down… scary. My go-to spot has gotten so popular. The moment we sat at our assigned table, a staff member set out spoons and water for us right away… 👍🏻 Super friendly service here. ![Spacious dining hall full of seated guests](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-05-1prp1-900.webp) ![Table set with spoons and water](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-06-99tlj-900.webp) ![Spacious seating suitable for group dinners](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-07-1v2xe-900.webp) ![Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Bones menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-08-1cub7-900.webp) ![Menu listing hot pot and bone hangover soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-09-132db-900.webp) ## Yeonam's menu and the new aged kimchi pressure-cooker braised pork bones The Yeonam Charcoal-Grilled Pork Backbone & Gamjatang menu is built around hot pot, bone hangover soup, and grilled bones, but this time they had an aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew I hadn't seen before, so I ordered it right away. Sides include naengmyeon (cold noodles), ramen, crispy potato pancake, rice balls, and steamed egg. The menu had hot pot, bone hangover soup, and grilled bones, but I spotted an aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew I hadn't seen before!!! Couldn't resist a new menu item, so I ordered it right away ^_^ There are also sides like naengmyeon, ramen, crispy potato pancake, rice balls, and steamed egg, so keep that in mind, haha. ![Table setting for the ordered aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-10-824ws-900.webp) ## How big is the small aged kimchi braised pork bones at 39,000 won? The aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew, small, is ₩39,000, and it arrives in the pressure pot itself about 15 minutes after ordering. Even at the small size, the portion was enormous — big enough for three people. ✔️ Aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew, small (₩39,000) — after about a 15-minute wait, the pressure pot finally opened!! The moment the lid came off, the sheer volume caught my eye, and even though it was the small size, the amount was insane lol. The aged kimchi pieces inside were huge too, so it looked like a really hearty spread just from the sight of it. Passed the portion test right off the bat!! ![Lid opened on the small aged kimchi pressure-pot bone stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-11-1gzwj-900.webp) ![Bone stew filled with large chunks of aged kimchi and backbone](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-12-19fnl-900.webp) ![Side dishes served alongside the pressure-pot bone stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-13-hy0ky-900.webp) ![A large piece of backbone meat picked up with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-14-1vo00-900.webp) ### What does Yeonam's 2,400-hour aged kimchi taste like? The kimchi pieces were huge and the bones were seriously massive too!! Apparently the kimchi is aged for a whopping 2,400 hours, and you could really taste that depth. The side dishes that came with it paired so well with the bone stew that they were perfect to eat one at a time alongside it. ![The 2,400-hour-aged kimchi spread out](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-15-1mauw-900.webp) ![A wrap of meat placed on aged kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew/daejeon-daeheung-dong-aged-kimchi-pork-bone-stew-16-1j9qh-900.webp) ## Kimchi, pork and rice together: why Yeonam wins for kimchi jjim in Daehung-dong The kimchi + meat + rice combo is a total rice thief. I finally found a place that does kimchi jjim well in Daehung-dong, Daejeon…!! It was so good I felt like I could come eat here every single day lol.

The kimchi being just a bit spicy was really the kicker!! 🌶️ So the meat and rice go together perfectly, haha. I just kept eating it lol, seriously amazing, so good.
