Suwon pork BBQ with staff grilling: Ssosam 208 Suwon Station

Ssosam 208 Suwon Station Branch is a pork barbecue restaurant near Suwon Station in Suwon, Gyeonggi. After the 500g assorted stone-grill set, I added pork neck because the meat quality was so good, and loved it with kimchi browned in the drippings. Verdict: a very comfortable choice for staff-grilled pork barbecue with easy parking.

Premium Gyukatsu Gyudo Mapo Gongdeok Main Branch is a smoked gyukatsu restaurant connected to Mapo Station in Mapo, Seoul. My friend and I had the ₩47,000 set for two, pairing the beef cutlet with wasabi and pollock roe before finishing pot rice with broth. A solid pick for smoky gyukatsu with easy subway access and parking.
