Sook-Sung-Do (숙성도)

Sook-Sung-Do is synonymous with premium Jeju black pork. This establishment’s signature courses – black pork rib-eye, bone-in tenderloin, and butterfly-cut pork ribs, are an absolute must-try. Through careful aging, the meat acquires a depth of flavor and taste that is nothing short of extraordinary. Here at Sook-Sung-Do, the culinary experience goes beyond just the high-quality meat. Complement your meal with unique side dishes such as roe-salted fish, fiddlehead fern pickle, hairtail fish sauce, and meljeot for a flavor-filled dining experience.
