Seongsu Jokbal

성수족발

This single-item jokbal shop in the middle of Seongsu's warehouse-and-cafe district draws long waits with a name-list, walk-in-only system rather than reservations. It's frequently ranked among Seoul's best trotters, a solid savory stop between gallery-hopping and cafe browsing in one of the city's most-visited new neighborhoods.

Jokbal · braised pig's trotters

A suggested order

Order one medium jokbal to share between two or three; it comes pre-sliced and is often praised as some of the best in Seoul, so save room and skip a big lunch beforehand.
