Nowon Station jokbal restaurant: half-and-half platter, Gwihan Jokbal
Gwihan Jokbal Nowon Branch is a jokbal (braised pig's trotters) and bossam restaurant near Exit 1 of Nowon Station in Nowon-gu, Seoul, open 11:00 to 02:00. Arriving just after opening with her husband, the writer ordered the banban jokbal, which came as one large tray split half plain and half spicy jokbal with kkeotjeori (fresh cabbage salad), buchu muchim (chive salad), mu saengchae (radish salad) and ssam vegetables, plus enough mak guksu (chilled buckwheat noodles) for two. With no gamey pork smell, chewy skin and moist meat, Gwihan Jokbal Nowon Branch is an easy pick for group dinners and work gatherings in Nowon.
