OKDONGSIK SEOGYO • 옥동식 서교점
Owned by Chef Ok Dongsik, his restaurant in Seogyo-dong only accommodates 10 seatings at any time and the main menu & signature dish is their 돼지국밥 Dwaeji Gomtang Pork & Rice soup which is served in the style of Gukbap where hot broth is poured over rice.
This place has been on Michelins Bib Gourmand list for the last 6 years 2016-2022 & has changed how locals have viewed this humble dish.
The main star of the dish is not the buttery tender pork belly but actually it’s the broth; using a specific Korean pig that’s a cross of US Berkshire & native Korean hogs.
Using only the meat & vegetables, what Chef creates is a low & slow cooked broth that’s reminiscent of a consommé. It’s light, clean & pure. The perfect canvas for the simple pork belly, rice & the accompanying ying scallions.
Kimchi & house made pepper paste gochuji is provided to add heat, cut the fat & bring brightness.
They serve two sizes: Small and Large where the large you are given extra portion of meat. The regular is $10 & large is $15
I 100% know that this is probably the epitome of what Dwaeji Gomtang should be & based on this, it’s as perfect as you can get & is the gold standard!
Personal preference though, I was little disappointed & underwhelmed as it wasn’t “anything special” as it tasted like soup asian parents would give you when you are sick.
Like I said, that’s not a bad thing at all but for waiting an hour, it might not be my first choice.
I still highly recommend checking this place to appreciate the execution & perfection Chef Ok Dongsik has put into this iconic & humble dish.
