Getting in
Walk-in

A no-frills Euljiro-3(sam)-ga spot built around a single hero dish: cheolpan jju-sam, baby octopus and pork belly stir-fried together on a hot griddle. The menu is short and each diner must order their own dish. It's known enough locally to draw a line at peak dinner and weekend hours, though early weekday visits often walk straight in. Featured on Kim Three Meals (김사원세끼).
