Jin-ju-jip (Pearl House)

Seoul, Korea



Raw plates of intestine sit in the restaurant window as a preview of what's to come.



Around the northeastern part of Seoul, this place is known for their grilled intestine. I'm not a fan of weird body parts and meat in general but I went along cuz I was falsely told that there would be something else to eat there.



Intestine is chewy, rich and greasy. After a few pieces, I joined my vegetarian aunt at eating the onions, cabbage and garlic cooking in the juices.



To find this restaurant that has been around for 40 years, exit SSANG-MUN off the number 4 subway line. Jin-ju jip is right across street from the local post office.
