Pork belly aged and smoked inside bamboo arrives thick-cut, and staff score and grill it at the table. As the outside crisps, the center keeps its juices and a faint smoky note. A ssamjang dip laced with truffle oil plays against the rich pork, and set menus add a herring sauce for a different dip. Low lighting and partitioned seating make the room suited to conversation-heavy gatherings such as wedding-invitation dinners or team meals near Sinnonhyeon. Pajeori, a dressed scallion salad, cuts through the fat.
