Update 1:
One of our friends overheard us talking about Myung Ga, the Korean Pork Belly and Stewed Pork Foot specialist and… off we went for another visit. ![]()
Complimentary Banchan:
Their Kimchi was just the right amount of fermented funk, tart, salty and delicious. ![]()
Their Complimentary Daikon Radish & Bean Sprouts Soup was also quite good, lightly spicy and delicious.
This time there were 4 of us, so we ordered the Small Size…
Bossam (Steamed Pork Belly) + Stewed Pig Ears + Jokbal (Stewed Pork Foot) + Sundae (Korean Blood Sausage) + Beef Cheeks:
Even the Small Portion was laughably massive!
And it was nice and hot.
Don’t forget to season to your liking with their variety of Condiments and Dipping Sauces:
For this latest visit, I’ve really enjoyed using the very fresh large Romaine Lettuce leaves + a dab of the Fermented Shrimp Dipping Sauce and a few slivers of Garlic. ![]()
Steamed Beef Cheeks:
These were noticeably beefy, tender and delicious! ![]()
Bossam (Steamed Pork Belly):
That tender, succulent layering of fat and lean meat in their Bossam (Steamed Pork Belly) was wonderful! This was made for @PorkyBelly.
Lightly seasoned, but perfect with some of the Kimchi, Romaine Lettuce, some Garlic and a dab of the Fermented Shrimp Dipping Sauce.
This was one of our friends’ favorite on this visit. ![]()
Stewed Pig Ears & Stewed Pork Knuckles:
The Pig Ears were supple enough, with the slight crunch from the cartilage. The Stewed Pork Knuckles were even better! I love the soft cartilage and bits of Stewed Pork meat near the bones. ![]()
Jokbal (Stewed Pork Foot):
My favorite was their Stewed Pork Foot slices. More tender than their Bossam on this visit, it was luscious at times, and so crave-worthy! ![]()
Sundae (Blood Sausage):
Again, I’m not usually a fan of Blood Sausage, but this was quite mild and very soft. Our other friend who joined us loves Blood Sausage and said this was “quite good.” ![]()
Myung Ga continues to be a stunning value, and I think we’ve found the ideal “ordering size”: For 4 adults, we ordered 1 Small Combo (which was all the food above). We were stuffed and had leftovers, and this cost us only $12.50 per person total (including tax & tip)!

It’s a bit funny and sad that 2 Cocktails at the nearby Walker Inn would cost more than this entire meal that fed 4 people.
The QPR is pretty good at Myung Ga, and we’ll be back for more Stewed Pig Ears, Stewed Pork Foot and Pork Belly soon. ![]()
