Jongno 3-ga outdoor Korean BBQ: Saturday 7pm waiting and table seats

Tapgol Gongwon Jongno 3-ga Branch is an outdoor Korean BBQ restaurant tucked in the alley by Tapgol Park in Jongno, Seoul. Two servings of frozen pork belly, steamed egg, and kimchi fried rice were eaten at a spacious outdoor table well-suited to groups of 2 to 4, with each table's lamp marked by a number used for the bill. On a Saturday at 7pm in early September, the wait was about 10 to 20 parties.
