은주정

Local favoriteFine on your own ⓘ

An old Euljiro favorite in the alleys of Bangsan Market, known for kimchi jjigae you eat wrapped in fresh greens. At lunch it serves only the stew, full of pork and well-fermented kimchi, with a basket of lettuce and herbs; in the evening it becomes a pork belly barbecue that finishes with the same stew.
