Honeycomb pork belly is the restaurant's golden signature. Pork belly is a large piece of whole meat, very thick, and takes about 10 minutes to grill. The meat is processed in advance, tasted with coarse sea salt and sake, and baked until browned on all sides. The pork belly is crispy, fragrant and tender, and the meat is full and chewy. Eating too much pork belly will inevitably have a greasy taste, wrapping the meat slices with lettuce leaves, plus side dishes such as kimchi, pickled cucumbers, and cold bean sprouts served by the restaurant, can play a certain role in relieving greasyness.
