I also heard corkage is available free of charge. ## Choosing a hot pot broth to suit your taste J's Pot is a fusion hot pot restaurant that first established itself in Pangyo before opening at Magok COEX. There were plenty of broths—beef, kimchi, mala, tomato, tom yum, katsuobushi, tonkotsu, and Mongolian—so even people with different preferences could each enjoy the broth they wanted. Each table has a kiosk, which made ordering easy, and the full-height glass made the inside of the restaurant clearly visible. It felt like an easy place to walk into when looking for a restaurant at Magok COEX. ![Interior of J's Pot Magok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-03-1uyii-966.webp) ![Table seating at J's Pot Magok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-04-tk9z7-966.webp) ![Kiosk and tables at J's Pot Magok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-05-1krsp-966.webp) ![Glass-fronted dining space at J's Pot Magok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-06-syra3-966.webp) ![Self-serve hot pot sauce bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-07-qx9rf-966.webp) A self-serve sauce bar for mixing combinations to your taste ## Signature hot pot sets and lunch menu ![J's Pot signature hot pot set menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-08-1hut8-622.webp) ![J's Pot lunch hot pot menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-09-1ig6f-758.webp) Signature hot pot sets and lunch menu Items marked with ★ are what we ordered.

I chose the mild beef broth, while my wife chose the spicy mala broth, and we added vegetable tangsuyuk (sweet-and-sour fried vegetables) for a hearty meal. ## How did the beef and mala broths taste? ### Beef broth hot pot ![Beef broth hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-16-13b1o-966.webp) ![Beef brisket cooked in beef broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-17-1iua2-966.webp) ![Ingredients for beef broth hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-18-ct99b-966.webp) ![Hot pot broth and beef brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-19-9exec-966.webp) ![Mala broth hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-20-7x9so-966.webp) ### Mala broth hot pot The beef broth was mild with a deep, developed flavor, while the mala broth was tingly and intensely aromatic, so we were both happy with our own choices. The beef brisket was tender even after just a brief dip in the broth. ### Vegetable tangsuyuk The vegetable tangsuyuk stayed crisp rather than turning soggy, and its sweet-and-tangy sauce also went nicely alongside the hot pot. ## Finishing with self-made rice porridge and Cass draft beer ![Ingredients for finishing self-made rice porridge](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-21-acrin-966.webp) ![Self-made rice porridge simmering in broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-22-19tzc-966.webp) ![Rice porridge to finish the hot pot meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-23-1d49b-966.webp) ![Cass draft beer with a hot pot meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot/magoknaru-hotpot-beef-mala-jspot-24-1tu9r-966.webp) Finishing rice porridge and draft beer We added a raw egg and made rice porridge ourselves at the end. The rice and egg came together in the broth to finish the meal neatly. It also went well with a cold glass of draft beer and soft drinks. ## Final thoughts on hot pot at Magok COEX If you are looking for hot pot in Magoknaru, I would recommend J's Pot Magok Branch. There was a wide variety of broths and a substantial selection of dishes, so it seemed well suited not only to a weekend date but also to a company dinner.
