Opened in 1999, this is Jeonju's representative restaurant. It became even more famous because the filming team of the movie 'PARASITE' visited it five times. Sweet Galbi marinated with a patented seasoning recipe is addictive. Side dishes that go well with the meat, such as Green Onion Salad, Salad, White radish cabbage and Perilla Leaves, further enhance the taste.

◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm
This restaurant is famous for being the hangout spot of the “Parasite” movie crew. One wall is adorned with autographs from the actors and directors. The restaurant’s signature dish of deliciously spicy and sweet galbi helped solidify its fame. For the perfect combination, we recommend pairing galbi dishes with refreshing cold buckwheat noodles.
