Recommending a COEX Magok spot for solo shabu-shabu lunch in the ₩10,000s range: J's Pot.

I went to a solo shabu-shabu specialty restaurant near COEX Magok. They have a lunch menu, so prices were cheap, in the mid-to-high ₩10,000s, and besides mala broth they also have a plain shabu-shabu broth ready, so even people who can't handle mala can eat here! Most of all, it's a great spot for solo dining, so I recommend it to anyone looking for a solo-dining spot at COEX.

Since it's a solo shabu-shabu specialty restaurant, J's Pot Magok Branch felt clean while letting you pick whichever broth you wanted.

## Where is J's Pot Magok Branch in the COEX Magok tower?

J's Pot is located at Unit 208, B2, Tower A of COEX Magok Tower. It was easy to find since it's right next to a Chinese restaurant, and parking at the COEX lot gets you 2 hours free.

## The 17,500-won lunch hot pot set, orderable on weekends too

J's Pot at Magoknaru is known for its signature hot pot set. Since I visited at lunchtime, I got to enjoy the lunch hot pot set for ₩17,500. The set comes with your choice of individual broth, mixed vegetables, 100g beef belly, white rice, and 2 fish balls. I liked that it's available not just on weekdays but on weekends too. They said you can order it from 11 AM to 3 PM.

## Solo seats and the free sauce bar at J's Pot Magok

The place is fairly large, so it seems good for group dinners too, but there's a bar-style solo seating area off to the side, and most people there when I visited were eating alone. If you're looking for a good solo-dining spot near COEX Magok, I recommend this place!

There's also a sauce bar set up in one corner of the restaurant. Unlike other hot pot places, there's no charge to use the sauce bar, so even ordering just the cheap lunch set like I did, I could use it for free. There were plenty of sauce varieties too, which made mixing and matching fun.

## What comes with the lunch hot pot set?

This is what you get when you order the lunch hot pot: broth, mixed vegetables, beef belly, fish balls, and finally white rice too, so it's quite filling!

![Composition of the lunch hot pot set](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-lunch-hotpot-solo-jspot/magok-lunch-hotpot-solo-jspot-13-1upna-966.webp)

I honestly didn't expect much from the mixed vegetables, but there were actually various types of mushrooms including shiitake, plus fried tofu. The beef belly portion was also surprisingly generous, so it felt filling.

We also ordered extra flying fish roe shrimp balls. You get 4 pieces and they were quite large in size.

## Choosing your own broth, from mala to beef

The broth included with the lunch shabu-shabu can be chosen from a variety including the mala I ordered, plus beef, tomato, tom yum, kimchi, katsuo, Mongolian, tonkotsu, and more, so it's a hot pot place you could come to even with a friend who can't eat mala!

![Choosing the broth for the lunch hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-lunch-hotpot-solo-jspot/magok-lunch-hotpot-solo-jspot-17-x6nat-966.webp)

My companion ordered the beef broth, and it had absolutely no mala flavor, not much different from a basic shabu-shabu broth, so it could be enjoyed as a comfortable, no-pressure shabu-shabu.

J's Pot at Magoknaru felt clean thanks to the individual broths. Once the broth started boiling, they added the vegetables and meat for me.

I usually like mala, so I ordered the mala broth, and when I grabbed peanut sauce from the sauce bar to go with it, this place really felt like a proper hot pot specialty restaurant. The broth was rich, and both the vegetables and meat were fresh and delicious.

The extra shrimp balls I ordered had a nice bouncy shrimp texture inside, and I ate them happily. The portion was quite generous too.

The staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean, so I had a pleasant meal at this COEX Magok restaurant, J's Pot Magok Branch. It's good for group gatherings and solo dining alike, so if you're looking for a hot pot specialty restaurant near Magoknaru, I hope you'll visit J's Pot and enjoy the solo shabu-shabu!
