The round tables have chairs with backrests, and the long rectangular tables have sofa-style seating, so you can sit comfortably depending on your group size. Dinner with a baby is always early haha ㅠㅠ We went around 5pm and it was quiet, so we could focus on eating in peace. ![Spacious, clean interior seating at Nopo Dwaeji Aewol](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-05-18xfr-900.webp) ![Dining hall with backrest chairs and sofa-style seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-06-g4tjx-900.webp) ## Menu prices and the 10% Naver reservation coupon Looking for a good Jeju black pork restaurant near our lodging, we found Nopo Dwaeji Aewol, where geun-gogi seemed to be the main dish, so we ordered that! There's also a lunch special that's great value. Meal items like doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew), kimchi jjigae, and kelp rice are well done too. And writing a Naver review gets you a free jjigae or naengmyeon (cold noodles) — such a bonus 👏 ![Nopo Dwaeji Aewol menu board with lunch special information](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-07-1q79h-900.webp) And if you reserve through Naver, there's a 10% coupon. I booked ahead and used it too. ![Table set up after making a reservation](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-08-bnb9s-900.webp) ![Grill and table setting before cooking the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-09-194i6-900.webp) ## Side dishes and the self-serve vegetable bar The side dishes were clean and paired well with the meat — dongchimi (radish water kimchi), dressed lettuce salad, and three sauces: wasabi, ssamjang, and salt. ![Dongchimi and dressed lettuce salad with wasabi, ssamjang, and salt sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-10-1v3hc-900.webp) You can freely grab veggies and side dishes from the self-serve bar. Small plates were set up there too, which was convenient. ![Self-serve bar for vegetables and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-11-15vxk-900.webp) ## 600g of geun-gogi for 72,000 won, grilled by the staff Nopo Dwaeji Aewol, an Aewol black pork favorite, is known for its geun-gogi — 600g for ₩72,000. We went for dinner, but at lunch there's a lunch special: 400g of meat for ₩55,000, including a free jjigae and rice, so lunch is great value too. Staff grilled the meat for us with a full grilling service. The color of the meat ✨ so good. ![600g of black pork geun-gogi on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-12-ng0j3-650.webp) Nopo Dwaeji's black pork is aged meat — they say they select the best cuts and age the pork neck and belly. No wonder it was so tasty. ![Grilling the aged pork neck and belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-13-1ceeg-650.webp) ![Staff grilling service for the black pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-14-l37dl-650.webp) ![Black pork geun-gogi turning golden brown on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-15-f2n6k-900.webp) ![Pork neck and belly grilled and lined up neatly](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-16-ee3v0-900.webp) The perfectly grilled pieces were lined up neatly side by side. They say the pork neck should be eaten right away, sealed with its juices, before it gets grilled too long and dry. Take the first bite dipped in salt right off the grill and a day's worth of tiredness melts away. ![First bite of black pork dipped in salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-17-8l0em-650.webp) ![A piece of black pork neck topped with wasabi](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-18-tv8yt-900.webp) ![Close-up of moist, well-grilled black pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-19-zh1bi-900.webp) ## Wasabi and house-made salt: the best way to eat it These days I can't eat meat without wasabi. It brings out the natural flavor of the meat and adds a layer of umami, so it's not greasy and the meat stays moist and even more delicious. The salt is house-made — not too salty, with a crunchy texture kind of like nurungji (scorched rice), a combo that doesn't get old even after eating a lot of meat. ![A spread of Aewol black pork geun-gogi enjoyed with house-made salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner/aewol-black-pork-geungogi-dinner-20-16guu-1200.webp) ## Who should eat at Nopo Dwaeji Aewol?
