녹나무 Noknamu — Restaurant in Jeju

One of the best meals yet on my Korea trip. We started with the black pork platter and added the Hanwoo. The meats were cooked perfectly by the restaurant staff who explained meticulously how to pair the meats with the range of sides in English. The cuisson on each cut of meat was done to consistent perfection, especially the medium cook on the Hanwoo. The dinner ended with one of the rarest dessert in my life - persimmon sorbet, served over a covered bed of dry ice to keep the sorbet silky soft and cold, what a superbly smart technique. And the price? Just a third of what I would have to pay back home assuming all of these were even available.

Ps: bbq black pork + warm anchovy sauce + soy bean paste + dry kimchi on a vege blade...

had very nice dinner

hanwoo beef very ex (prime rib ie galbi not best cut) tendonous, underwhelming & pricy.

the beef tartar was excellent melt in the mouth

banchan was good..bibimbap not dolsot bibimbab was ok not the best..cold noodles was good..tomatoes were good.

the beef rib soup was very...

Worst meal in Jeju. Bbq meat was tough and bland in taste. Service was what disappointed me the most. The main service host (wearing black jacket) was so cold.. she made us feel so unwelcome. We were celebrating a 60th birthday and they refused to let us cut the cake there. Even blowing the candles, they pointed at us and suspiciously thinking we will eat it. Shockingly bad experience for extremely costly...
