## A weekday evening of frozen pork belly with my junior near Suwon Station

I live fairly close to my junior, but since we both work, we do not get to see each other often! Meeting on a weekday somehow made me even happier to see herㅜㅜ We talked about what to eat, got a craving for frozen pork belly, and decided that was the move!! That led us straight to Taejang Sikdang Suwon Station Branch.

This was my first visit here! The atmosphere was great from the moment we walked in 👀

## A retro but clean restaurant atmosphere

It had retro vibes in abundance~ It felt different from the trendy barbecue places these days, which made me like it even more, haha. Thin meat does not make you gain weight!!!! I am choosing to believe that again today, hahaha.

It had such a great feel. Even with the retro atmosphere, the restaurant itself was clean, which I liked even more.

There were quite a lot of tables too, so it looked like a good place to visit with a group. I think it would be nice for a company dinner as well 🍻

Also, instead of regular bottled water, they served barley tea, which I personally loved. The selection of banchan (Korean side dishes) was pretty substantial too! More than anything, I love places that serve bracken fern, so just seeing it put me in a good mood for no reason, hahaha. Here is the menu.

## Ordering 4 mm frozen pork belly and cheese steamed egg

We ordered 3 servings of 4 mm naengsam (thin frozen pork belly), 1 cheese gyeranjjim (steamed egg), 2 draft beers, and 1 bottle of soju.

They grilled the meat for us at first! I was starving and desperate to eat quickly, but it was so nice and easy having them grill it for us, hahaha. Meat always tastes better when someone else grills it...✨

Because naengsam is thin, it cooked almost immediately after hitting the grill, which was great, haha. That kind of speed is very important when you are hungry...

We kicked things off refreshingly with draft beer!

## Frozen pork belly with kimchi, bean sprouts, and bracken fern

Once everything was laid out, it looked so satisfying!! Grilling it together with bean sprouts, cooked kimchi, and bracken fern was such a good match for the naengsam 🤤💕 A piece of naengsam topped with kimchi, bean sprouts, and bracken fern disappeared in no time. And here is the cheese steamed egg we ordered too!

![Cheese-filled steamed egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-station-retro-frozen-pork/suwon-station-retro-frozen-pork-16-qq65t-900.webp)

The cheese was not just lightly sprinkled on top—it was evenly mixed inside too. That meant every bite came with both egg and cheese, which I loved! With cheese in the soft steamed egg, it was absolutely perfect as a soju snack, hahaha. It was like taking a sip of soju and then a spoonful of steamed egg soothed and warmed my stomach.

And of course, you cannot leave pepper out of naengsam!! There was pepper set on the table by default, and seeing the reliable Ottogi pure black pepper there made me oddly even more satisfied, hahaha. A few shakes of pepper over naengsam really do change the flavor.

Looking toward the back of the restaurant, I also saw a separate space for preparing the meat! Being able to see it made the place feel more trustworthy somehow, and it felt like there were thoughtful details all around the restaurant.

## A 5-minute walk from Suwon Station and great for groups

And one last cute detail, hahaha—I want one of those stickers on the glass too... It had been a while since I met up with my junior on a weekday evening, and we thoroughly enjoyed frozen pork belly with beer and soju. It is only about a 5-minute walk from Suwon Station, so the access was great too.

If you are craving frozen pork belly near Suwon Station, I think it would be worth visiting at least once. I need to come back too—I have fallen for this place, haha. Next time, I want to try other menu items as well! I think it would be a good pick especially if you like a retro atmosphere or want a comfortable place for a group to eat meat. Recommended!!😊
