If only this restaurant didn’t allow smoking, I’d go and try the 재주산 똥돼지 — pork from the Cheju Island black pigs, traditionally living off from under the household’s latrine/privy/bathroom. (Does the US government allow the meat to be imported?)
The reason the place is still closed in the picture is that they don’t open until 4 PM. They close at around midnight.
Other Korean dishes in addition to 삼겹살 (samgyeopsal = fatty slices of pork): 아구전골 (monkfish stew), 굴보쌈 (cabbage-wrapped oysters), 깻잎+고추전 (sesame laves with red peppers), 낙지 (octopus)
Soju and beer to go with the barbecued meat.
