Description

If you are contemplating a pork-belly cleanse, you could do worse than to give it a test drive at Palsaik Samgyeopsal, a new place behind Ma Dang Gook Soo in a maximalist Korean mini-mall. Palsaik is presumably a branch of Palsaek Sam-gyeopsal, a famous pork-belly restaurant in the Sinchon neighborhood of Seoul. Palsaik is decorated with photos of pork, drawings of hogs and swooshy rainbow things that represent the "eight colorful flavors of pork,'" the healthful slabs of pig, marinated in life-sustaining tinctures, to which the restaurant's customers are devoted.
