Donbellong — Attraction in Seogwipo-si

My first time in Korea, and Jeju Island. What a magical place! One of the things Jeju is known for is their black pork dishes, and Don Bellong is an exceptional experience with their charcoal grill. You really can’t go wrong with any of the meat cuts, but I recommend the Special Cut if it’s your first time. What’s great is that they cook the meat table side to perfection and serve it with various sauces (or just eating it without any additional sauce works as it is tender and cooked with the right amount of char). The restaurant is right on the water, and you get a beautiful view of the sunset or you can take a stroll long the beach afterwards to digest. The owner is super friendly and attentive and may even sit down and have a beer with you. I would also recommend trying the soju and makgeolli from Jeju - the taste is different from the “mainland”. Overall 5 out of 5 experience!! This is my spot when...

Was taking a stroll by the beach sand sea lighthouse and was feeling peckish wanted to have jeju black pork bbq

This area was by the walk and we stopped by seeing a sizeable crowd by the outdoor seating area

Note that if u sit outside and order bbq you will have to bbq yourself

But if you sit indoor the staff will bbq it for you. We sat inside because … black pork … we ain’t messing it up by ourselves

We got the black pork set and the lady kindly quickly swiftly professionally bbq it for us. She portioned it nicely amongst us and told us how to dig in.

First bite with salt Second with wasabi Third in the anchovies sauce Lastly with the spicy sauce Then it’s whatever , eat however u like

Nice cosy place Even though it’s bbq The smoke suction thing was close to the grill And we didn’t leave...

A hidden gem with it comes to black pork BBQ. This was our best meal yet at Jeju. We ordered the assorted black pork which came with 600g of pork belly and pork shoulder. The banchan was all vegetables and they were nice. It also came with a salad. They helped us cook the pork. The pork shoulder was cooked so nicely that it was just soft and nearly melt in the mouth. The pork belly was also delicious. We also could not resist trying the marinated pork cheeks.

The other dishes that we tried were the cold noodles and the steam eggs. They also had beer on tap which we enjoyed. The pork was the one that was outstanding. Come here...
