(9 reviews)Pyeongnam Sikdang has held a single spot in Pohang’s Jukdo Market for 36 years. Its signature gomtang is served hot in an earthenware bowl with beef and an egg, finished by the traditional toryeom technique of ladling steaming broth over the ingredients so the meat soaks up the stock and becomes tender while the soup develops a deep beef aroma. Their —slow‑cooked slices of premium Korean beef, made from ox‑head meat and ox tongue and briefly tossed with fragrant chives in the broth—is also a local favorite for its tender texture and rich umami.
