Ijo Sutbul Galbi in Mangmi Market: cheap pork belly grilled outdoors

At about 5:30 on a Saturday evening, the younger companion I was with suggested it, and we went to Ijo Sutbul Galbi as the first stop of the day. It is inside Mangmi Jungang Market.

We ate at an outdoor table. Even at that hour there were quite a few guests, many of them young. I wondered whether it is because outdoor tables are in fashion these days. I also got the impression that people who live nearby come often.

We ordered fresh pork belly. The menu lists it at 9,000 won for 130 g. Several side dishes come with it.

The price felt low. Grilling outdoors also meant the smoke bothered me less. The staff who served us were kind. The menu also lists pork ribs at 9,000 won for 130 g and a soybean paste stew, ordered after the meat, at 2,000 won.

There was a cat shelter among the stacked boxes, and I saw a cat too. It is a good place to grill meat outdoors on a clear day, so I plan to go again when the weather is good.

After eating here we went to Tansuho.
