Gwandangnae Sikdang

Jeju-do


The ebullient owner of this restaurant is known for his succulent black-pig pork dishes – a massive banquet for two is ₩35,000. From the small retail plaza outside the south gate, walk about 50m into the hamlet of traditional buildings. Look for the shop with a weather-worn Korean flag.
