1. Imje (임제) Tap-dong
Loved by locals and travelers alike, Imje opens with aromas of warm smoke and roasted nuts, as Jeju black pork is gently kissed by embers fueled with Udo peanut shells. The meat arrives lacquered and juicy, while a staff griller handles the heat so you can sip, smile, and sneak a treat to your well-behaved pup under the table.
- Order this: The black pork set with seasonal sides; follow the staff’s salt-first bite, then greens and sauce to catch the smoky sweetness.
