There are so many barbecue places in Haeundae, but I heard about one that insists on dry-aging—even accepting moisture loss—for the meat's pure flavor, so I had to go. It was Gwang-anmok (광안목) Haeundae Branch! ![Aged pork at Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-01-sen29-1200.webp) ![Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch exterior](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-02-523aa-900.webp) From the enormous asado grill at the entrance to the convenience of having the staff cook everything, I immediately understood why there is always a wait. ![Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch information](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-03-geqrb-715.webp) ## Gwang-anmok near Haeundae Station: location and parking ![Gwang-anmok location near Haeundae Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-04-1yjcr-900.webp) From Exit 5 of Haeundae Station, simply walk toward the beach for three minutes. ![Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch building guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-05-nl3z1-864.webp) It is on the second floor of the building right beside Artbox and Goraesa Eomuk on Gunam-ro's main street, so it is very easy to find. Park at Hyundai Paid Parking Lot behind the restaurant (8-1 Gunam-ro 18beon-gil) and you receive one hour free. ![Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch parking information](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-06-tqfbu-900.webp) Once inside the second-floor restaurant, the first thing to catch your eye is the huge asado grill! ![Gwang-anmok asado grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-07-x8du1-865.webp) They lightly smoke and pre-grill the meat here before bringing it to your table. ![Lightly smoked pre-grilled meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-08-1f6xp-850.webp) ![Asado-grill smoked meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-09-o4p64-875.webp) The space was roomy and pleasant, making it great for an intimate meal. With free corkage, it was also an excellent pork specialist for group dinners of up to 60 or a family meal out. ![Interior of Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-10-4ev7t-842.webp) ![Dining area at Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-11-1mrz8-865.webp) ![Spacious Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-12-pq9cs-873.webp) ![Table at Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-13-1ru7n-708.webp) ## Menu and ordering the A Set ![Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-14-1jxdg-900.webp) ## Asado-grilled aged pork neck and pork belly ![Pork neck and pork belly A Set](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-15-1ybkw-900.webp) I ordered the A Set, which comes with both pork neck and pork belly. They alternate dry aging and vacuum aging to draw out moisture and concentrate flavor, and after the meat is smoked on the asado grill, it already smells incredible. ![Smoked aged pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-16-1izo9-900.webp) A professionally trained staff member cooked everything at the table at exactly the most delicious moment, so I could enjoy my date so comfortably. ![Staff grilling aged pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-17-1emqv-808.webp) Once the meat was ready, the staff member explained how to eat it! Gwang-anmok's best combination, they told me, is a basil wrap piled generously with chimichurri sauce made with perilla leaves and danggui. It really was fragrant and had an appealingly exotic character. ![Chimichurri and basil wrap combination](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-18-drngw-900.webp) ## Anchovy salt with pork neck But! The absolute number-one favorite that completely won over my palate was the anchovy salt. ![Gwang-anmok anchovy salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-19-1u0xz-900.webp) ![Pork neck with anchovy salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-20-k3zu0-900.webp) I dipped a thick piece of pork neck into this salt, aged with anchovies, salt, and herbs, and the nutty meat juices and savory depth of the anchovy salt just exploded in my mouth. ![Icheon rice, doenjang-jjigae, and steamed egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-21-jeyl6-900.webp) And the rice was so wonderfully sticky, too. Icheon rice with a spoonful of home-style doenjang-jjigae (soybean paste stew), plus fluffy steamed egg custard, made it a perfect meal. ![Gwang-anmok meal spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-22-1vwpa-900.webp) ## Lunch benefits and a reservation tip for late visits ### What is good about going at lunch? Yes! If you order a set menu at lunchtime, warm stone-pot bibimbap and hearty doenjang-jjigae come as a benefit, so a lunch visit is excellent value, too. ![Lunch set benefit dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-23-qnawb-900.webp) ### What should I keep in mind for a late dinner visit? To maintain the quality of the aged meat, the daily quantity is limited. They may close early once the day's prepared meat sells out, so if you are visiting late, be sure to make a reservation or check with the restaurant. ## Overall Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch was a place that drew out the meat's deep, natural flavor through its steadfast aging method and careful grilling service. Nothing felt like an afterthought, from the savory anchovy salt and fragrant basil wraps to the Icheon rice and doenjang-jjigae. Since you can focus solely on a delicious meal without grilling the meat yourself, I recommend reserving ahead if you want a quality meal at this always-busy spot! ![Meal at Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok-24-1jj1e-900.webp) ## Hours - Monday–Friday: 12:00–23:30 / break time 15:00–16:30 / last order 22:30 - Saturday–Sunday: 12:00–24:00 / break time 15:00–16:30 / last order 23:00 - Parking available: Hyundai Parking Lot, one hour supported ## Where it is - Gwang-anmok Haeundae Branch (광안목 해운대점) - 2F, 16 Gunam-ro, Haeundae-gu, Busan, South Korea - 부산광역시 해운대구 구남로 16 2층 - 35.1623658, 129.1595839 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B4%91%EC%95%88%EB%AA%A9%20%ED%95%B4%EC%9A%B4%EB%8C%80%EC%A0%90/@35.1623658,129.1595839,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@side-dish-plate/haeundae-pork-anchovy-salt-gwanganmok/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
