Craving meat for lunch, I visited Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal, a Jayang-dong Korean BBQ spot, and left very satisfied :)

## A Jayang-dong Korean BBQ restaurant with unlimited wrap greens

If you love loading up on wrap greens when you eat pork belly, this place will make you happy! True to its name, which literally means "wrap greens," they don't just bring you a few lettuce or perilla leaves — you can help yourself to endless wrap greens and side dishes from the self-serve bar!

## Inside Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal: seating and atmosphere

Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal is located inside the Jayang Hanulchae Verre commercial building. The interior was bigger than I expected, with generous spacing between tables. It felt clean and orderly rather than having that chaotic barbecue-joint energy, and with high chairs available, it looked like a good spot for families too.

## Iron lid or charcoal brazier: choosing how the pork is grilled

What's interesting here is that even within the same restaurant, you can choose between iron-lid or charcoal-brazier grilling. On the iron lid you put pork belly or pork neck along with kimchi, bean sprouts, and bracken to grill together, while the charcoal side has menu items like skirt steak that are great with a smoky char.

There were also reasonably priced set menus like the iron-lid half-and-half set or the wrap-greens half-and-half set, which made deciding easy! We figured pork belly has to be the iron lid, so we ordered two servings of iron-lid pork belly. Each serving was a generous 200g.

## What's on the self-serve vegetable bar and side dish bar

What I liked was the vegetable bar and side dish setup. Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal keeps a variety of vegetables ready at the self-serve bar, so you can help yourself to as much as you want. Best of all, the vegetables weren't wilted at all — they were fresh, and the bar itself was kept neat and clean.

The side dishes were surprisingly varied too. There was myeongi-namul (mountain garlic leaf), pickled chili, gat kimchi (mustard leaf kimchi), baek kimchi (white kimchi), and seasoned onion — all great for eating alongside the meat right away — plus kimchi, bean sprouts, and seasoned bracken meant to be grilled on the iron lid.

You could pick a wrap green, add pork belly with mountain garlic leaf or pickled chili, or pile on well-grilled bracken and kimchi — so many combinations to try! Very satisfied.

## Iron-lid pork belly, grilled and cut by the staff

Once the big iron lid heats up, they put the pork belly on it. Staff keep an eye on it and grill it themselves, so all we had to do was eat comfortably. Once the meat is cooked to a certain point, they add kimchi, bean sprouts, and bracken around it to grill together — and this is where the iron lid really shows its strength.

With plenty of wrap greens ready too, the fat rendering off the pork belly trickles down and naturally soaks into the kimchi and bracken — and it's ridiculously good...!!

The staff's grilling service made things really easy. They carefully grilled all four sides and cut it up for us! Mouthwatering pork belly, complete~~

## Sesame salt, curry salt and the mountain garlic leaf wrap combo

The first bite went with just a light dip in sesame salt, and after that it was all about the wrap greens. They also had curry salt, which was a nice touch.

Piling bean sprouts and kimchi onto a perilla leaf added a tangy note that cut through the richness! I really love wrap greens.

## Finishing lunch with kimchi stew and cold buckwheat noodles

After eating our fill of meat, we ordered cold noodles and kimchi stew. The kimchi stew was packed with hearty ingredients like tofu and kimchi, and it paired well with the meat!

And then the cold noodles. Loosening the noodles into the cold, tangy broth completely cleared away the richness left over from the pork belly! The cold noodles were clearly made with care, so I was a happy camper. They came with cucumber and chili sauce too. Eating a leftover piece of pork belly along with the noodles was also lovely — the cool noodles and the warm, savory pork belly played off each other's textures nicely.

## Is Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal worth a visit?

Ssamchae Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal in Guui-dong lets you eat as much fresh wrap greens as you like, and with such a wide range of sides — from mountain garlic leaf, gat kimchi, baek kimchi, and pickled chili to kimchi, bean sprouts, and bracken grilled right on the iron lid — you can enjoy pork belly in so many different combinations. Satisfying! This is a place I'd love to come back to.
