This popular chain-style restaurant specializes in eight-flavor pork belly, each strip marinated in a different sauce from wine to curry to ginseng, grilled tableside. It's a fun, interactive meal that's become a genuine Seoul institution rather than a tourist gimmick. The Hongdae branch is lively and well-suited to groups. Expect a wait during peak dinner hours on weekends.
