Sancheong Charcoal Garden Euljiro

The 38 Best Restaurants in Seoul, South Korea | Eater

"Inspired by the charm of a traditional barbecue spot in Sancheong, a picturesque county near Jirisan Mountain, this restaurant transports you from a back alley off busy Eulji Street to the heart of Korea’s rural barbecue culture. The restaurant takes its concept seriously, sourcing high-quality ingredients such as black pork from the Jirisan area, while featuring dishes that reflect the region’s rich culinary heritage. Start your meal with the signature salt-grilled pork, expertly aged to amplify the pork’s rich flavors, followed by the spicy gochujang pork belly grilled over an open charcoal fire. And don’t miss the siksa menu, which offers a selection of hearty noodle and soup dishes that perfectly complement the meaty feast. Know before you go: There’s now an annex for more seating." - Matty Kim
