About this spot
This Jongno institution serves deep-fried pork cutlets that are crispy on the outside and tender inside, drowning in a savory brown sauce with pickled radish. The atmosphere feels like stepping back into 1976, offering a nostalgic slice of Seoul's culinary history without the tourist traps. Order the classic Donkatsu set to experience the perfect balance of salty sauce and fresh cabbage.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order extra pickled radish (takuan) to cut through the richness of the fried pork.
- Ask for the sauce on the side if you prefer a lighter flavor profile.
- Bring cash, as many traditional Korean donkatsu spots still operate on a cash-only basis.
