Jongno3-ga Korean BBQ thousand-layer pork belly: Cham Dwaejitgan
Cham Dwaejitgan Jongno Main Branch is a Korean BBQ restaurant specialising in black pork and Boseong nokdon (green-fed pork) a 1-minute walk from Jongno3-ga Station in Seoul. The visit covered one serving each of black pork ogyeopsal (five-layer pork belly), Boseong nokdon samgyeopsal and cheongyeopsal (thousand-layer pork belly), all grilled by staff from start to finish, with milk thistle, hair ties and mouthwash handed out as free extras. Even after a 30-minute wait, Cham Dwaejitgan was worth going back to.
