Briquette kimchi fried rice at a Yangjae BBQ spot: Gamdol Yeontan Jip
Gamdol Yeontan Jip Yangjae Citizen's Forest Branch is a charcoal-briquette grill house a 5-minute walk from Yangjae Citizen's Forest Station Exit 3 in Seocho, Seoul. After a picnic at Yangjae Citizen's Forest, the writer ordered two servings of jureuljuri teungmoksal (premium pork neck), charcoal-grilled pork belly with coarse salt, the one-and-only original flat bibim noodles, and kkakttuk kimchi fried rice pressed into the shape of a coal briquette, which proved as memorable as the meat. With its retro mood and a cozy long table that feels like a private room, Gamdol Yeontan Jip also works well for group dinners in Yangjae.
