목살 moksalNot spicy

Pork shoulder. Leaner than samgyeopsal and less prone to going tough if you leave it on the grill a moment too long.

Quoted as printed, from the chapter on reading a Korean menu.
Samgyeopsal on the grill, with kimchi cooking beside it — the kimchi is meant to be eaten hot, off the same grill.

Allergens, honestly

Korean labelling law names nineteen. These are the ones the sentence above names:

This is only what the sentence above names. Korean stock is built before anything visible reaches the bowl — dried anchovy, clams and simmered bone are ordinary, and soy sauce is usually brewed from wheat as well as soybeans. Ask.

이 국물에 멸치나 조개가 들어 있어요?

Is there anchovy or shellfish in this broth?

Meat you cook yourself

A grill sits in the middle of the table and the raw meat comes out on a plate. You cook it. Staff will often step in to cut and turn it, especially early on, and that is help rather than a correction. All of these are ordered by the portion, so a table of two orders two.

Ordered from the same page of the menu

This is one line of a longer book

The chapter this came from runs to sixteen pages, and the allergy chapter next to it explains what the nineteen leave out. Both are in the guidebook.
