When it comes to Korean cuisine, in addition to the well-known bibimbap, Korean fried chicken, and Korean barbecue, did you know that pig's feet (jokbal) are also very famous in Korea? The difference between Korean jokbal and Taiwanese or German versions is that it is usually enjoyed with salad, raw garlic slices, and a special Korean sauce. Today, I want to introduce a very famous jokbal restaurant in Korea called "Miss Jokbal." This restaurant is not only a favorite among locals, but it also appeared in the popular Korean drama "My Love from the Star"...
✅ Real Garlic Jokbal: A garlic-flavored pig's feet dish. This dish is covered with a generous amount of garlic sauce and sesame, which not only eliminates the gamey taste of the pork but also adds fragrance. The flavor of the garlic sauce is mild, not spicy, and it does not leave a strong garlic taste in the mouth. The pig's feet skin is very flavorful, and when paired with the garlic sauce, the overall taste leans toward sweetness. Additionally, every main dish ordered comes with side dishes, a lettuce salad, and noodle soup with kimchi. By the time the kimchi soup is served, it already contains kimchi. After adding the noodles and bean sprouts provided, it transforms into bean sprout kimchi soup. The soup's flavor is as expected, and the handmade noodles are impressive, with a great chewy texture after being cooked.
✅ Hallabong Ade: A Korean orange-flavored soda that has a very strong taste of orange. Since it is a carbonated drink, it tends to be relatively sweet.

The portions of jokbal at this restaurant are very generous, and both its flavor and texture are highly praised. The skin of the jokbal is soft and chewy, while the meat inside retains its pale color and is very appealing to the eye. When served, the jokbal is almost deboned and cut into slices; every bite is tender and juicy, yet not mushy. Moreover, the complimentary side dishes, salad, and kimchi pot are also impressive, with fresh ingredients and outstanding flavors. Because this restaurant is very popular, remember to fill in your details on the waiting list outside the door upon your arrival and wait for the staff to call your number!
