Jang Tou Bossam is Lunchtime Gold For K-Town Bargain Hunters
If you love pork you were undoubtedly excited by Jonathan Gold’s (aka “The Guru” on this site) review of Palsaik Samgyeopsal, the Koreatown pork belly specialist whose signature dish features 8 thick slices of fatty goodness, each drenched in its own special marinade. Somewhat surprisingly, they do offer a lunch menu featuring galbi tang (beef stew), naengmyeon (cold noodles), and $9 orders of pork belly. But clearly the 8 slices of pork belly dinner is the draw of this place. For lunch you’re better off stepping a few doors down to Jang Tou Bossam, a 2 year old semi-hidden gem (it’s literally hidden behind the building that houses Ma Dang Gook Soo and BCD Tofu House) of a restaurant that specializes in that other Korean pork fat dish- bossam.
