A family of four came for weekend lunch and ordered the medium stir-fry with hot pot rice for four at 52,000 won, four king prawn tempura at 10,000 won and a zero-sugar cola at 2,000 won, and the medium spice level suited everyone. Between the self-serve banchan bar, the scorched rice and the crisp prawn tempura, the family left this second visit ready to become regulars.

Cheonan pork jowl grill with a self-serve banchan bar: Motsaenggin

Motsaenggin Ttungdwaeji Cheongdang Branch is a pork barbecue restaurant in Cheongdang-dong, Dongnam-gu, Cheonan, Chungnam. Two servings of pork jowl (₩38,000) and kimchi stew (₩13,000) were ordered, and a staff member set the meat on the grill with mel-jeot (fermented anchovy dipping sauce), cutting and cooking it at the table, while the self-serve bar offered myeongnan-jeot (salted pollack roe), white kimchi and other side dishes to take freely. The pork jowl bursts with juice, so pork jowl is the cut to order at Motsaenggin Ttungdwaeji Cheongdang Branch.
