Same-day butchered pork belly Korean BBQ in Seongbuk: Jangheungjip

Jangheungjip Seongshin Women's University branch is a Korean BBQ restaurant in an alley near Seongshin Women's University Station in Seongbuk, Seoul, serving same-day butchered, grade-1 domestic pork. The writer ordered a mixed platter, flash-frozen pork belly, kimchi noodle soup, doenjang beef brisket rice, and minari fried rice, with doenjang soup thrown in for free. Between the minari, aged kimchi, and bracken fern grilled in pork fat, plus the finishing fried rice, this place nails both value and flavor.

Cool bar near Sungshin Women's Univ, Seoul: aged salmon, pizza, garlic

Coco's Sungshin Women's University branch is a bar and grill on the 2nd floor of a building near Sungshin Women's University in Seongbuk, Seoul. The visit included aged salmon sashimi, pepperoni thin pizza, boneless soy garlic chicken and a Jim Beam highball, in a spacious interior with single seats, group tables, an indoor smoking room and table kiosk ordering. Good-quality food at fair prices made it a solid pick for a night out with friends or a work dinner.
