This is the back of the building, and there's an entrance here too so you can go in this way. ![Entrance at the back of Sammi-jip's building](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-03-b63b7-900.webp) ![Sign near Sammi-jip's front entrance with pot lid imagery](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-04-cxq2r-900.webp) I walked around to the front entrance. The interior has a bright feel, and the pot lid imagery really stands out~ Parking at Sammi-jip is available near the entrance, with room for about 7 cars~ If needed, they offer parking support at the church next door on weekdays (except weekends), which is convenient. Time to head in!~ ## Inside Sammi-jip: seating and the self-serve corner ![Bright interior of Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-05-xi2pc-900.webp) ![Sammi-jip's dining hall with mostly 4-person tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-06-1q070-900.webp) ![Table layout inside Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-07-17nru-900.webp) About 4 tables were already occupied. It's mostly set up with 4-person tables, but there were 8-person tables too. ![Group seating area near the back door of Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-08-1cgc0-900.webp) Near the back door there's also space set up for groups. They give you injeolmi ice cream or a drink if you leave a receipt review! Since Taetae made a reservation, the table was already set up when we arrived~ There's a separate self-serve corner too, so you can grab extra bean sprouts or kimchi! ![Self-serve corner with bean sprouts and kimchi at Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-09-1dobz-900.webp) ![Table pre-set for the reservation at Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-10-1o5n8-900.webp) Once you order, they cook the meat in the pot lid together with minari (water celery), kimchi, bean sprouts, and mushrooms — I'm so excited already! ## Sammi-jip's menu and what three servings cost ![Sammi-jip's meat menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-11-17esf-900.webp) ![Full-pan and half-pan menu options at Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-12-xeq9g-900.webp) ![Single meat menu options at Sammi-jip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-13-1esa2-900.webp) There are full-pan and half-pan menu options, plus single meat options! Since Taetae was craving kimchi pork belly done pot-lid style, I went with the pork belly! Final decision: the thick score-cut whole pork belly!! One serving is 180g~ ![Sammi-jip's side dish menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-14-18gni-764.webp) There's a good variety of side dishes too, though a few of them are a bit pricey. - Score-cut kimchi pork belly x3 servings ₩51,000 - Jjolmyeon (spicy cold noodles) ₩7,000 - Rice ₩1,000 - Zero-sugar cola ₩2,000 - Total: ₩61,000! It's convenient since they grill it and bring it out already cooked~~ Now let's wait for it~ ## How did the pot-lid kimchi pork belly taste? ![Three servings of grilled score-cut whole pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-15-1yl6a-900.webp) Ta-da~~ The pork came out fully grilled~ Ordering 3 servings covers about half of the pot lid! ![Kimchi added on top of the whole pork belly in the pot lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-16-s00zq-900.webp) ![Bean sprouts, scallions and minari added to the pot lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-17-isqut-m-900.webp) Then they add the kimchi, followed by the rest — bean sprouts, scallions, and minari~ They said to eat it once the vegetables are cooked enough. Sizzle sizzle~~ The smell of kimchi spread through the air, then as the minari cooked, its aroma blended in too~ Onions and mushrooms went on next~ This is exactly the visual you order pot lid kimchi pork belly for~~~ It's a total feast!! ![Onions and mushrooms cooking in the pot lid kimchi pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-18-11yy1-900.webp) ![Kimchi pork belly fully cooked with vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-19-g80bq-900.webp) Once it was cooked enough, I dug in — being whole pork belly, it was full of juices and had this great chewy texture! Eating the pork belly together with all the vegetables cooked in the fat filled my mouth with rich flavor, giving Friday that perfect Friday-night charm!! ![A juicy bite of score-cut whole pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-20-qwph4-900.webp) ### Adding rice and jjolmyeon at Sammi-jip I'd originally planned to hold off on rice, but I ended up ordering it anyway! The combo of whole pork belly, kimchi, and minari was just too good to eat without rice! Ordered it right away ㅠㅠ And added jjolmyeon on top! ![The added order of jjolmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-21-1qtim-900.webp) ![Table spread with jjolmyeon and rice added](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-22-1izct-900.webp) The jjolmyeon came out partway through, and I wrapped it up together with the pork belly~! ![Wrapping pork belly with jjolmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-23-xf9ag-900.webp) And on top of it all, injeolmi ice cream from the review event! This was surprisingly delicious? It seemed like injeolmi (rice cake) powder sprinkled over Tuguether ice cream! ![Injeolmi ice cream received from the receipt review](https://img.superchart.com/images/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop/sammijip-cheongna-friday-kimchi-samgyeop-24-1ulwa-966.webp) Wow! I properly enjoyed juicy pork belly for the first time in a while~~ All those vegetables, side dishes, and extras... Taetae completely cleared the table!
