  As the first Jokbal (braised pork hock) and Bossam (braised pork belly) specialist restaurant in Perth , Marubang proudly offers a very authentic and unique dining experience, focuses on quality over quantity by having a small menu. Their meats are delivered and cooked fresh daily , especially jokbal and bossam as they are only prepared on the daily prediction of business.The marinated raw prawns were very interesting! Soy sauce acted as curing agent, leaving prawn flesh transparent, plump, soft and delicate. The sauce included chilli, sesame seeds and a bit of sesame oil from what I could taste . If you weren’t used to eating prawn shells, there were gloves to keep your hands clean-ish while deshelling. One thing is that you gotta devein the prawns as you go so if you can get over that, you’ll love this. I’m used to eat whole prawns so intestinal tracts don’t bother me , and I certainly can eat these guys with a bowl of hot rice everyday!Bossam is a braised pork belly dish , served with kimchi, raw garlic, ssamjang (wrap sauce), saeu-jeot (salted shrimp), and an assortment of raw vegetables . Our pork belly was extremely tender and cut into thick slices. To eat, the meat and side dishes are wrapped together in vegetables such as romaine lettuce, red leaf lettuce, carrots, cucumber, pickled cabbage and pickled radish . I find without carrots and cucumber it was more enjoyable as I could taste the pork flavour without getting distracted by crunchy veggies. But each to their own!I personally love how the tables are really big, even the two-seated ones. Marubang understand that because Korean food comes with a lot of side dishes, having big tables would make the dining experience more comfortable! And they open till 1am everyday, except Sundays, that’s also sooo Korean! instagram.com

  Came here with a friend and we had the set menu for $60. Not the cheapest but the quality of the food was there. It came with a bowl of cold noodles for each person, a cold tofu dish, a jellyfish and porkhoc mustard salad and Bossam. Although I was never quite a fan of cold noodles, those noodles were good enough to change my mind about them! The mustard pork hoc salad was addictive with the spicyness increasing with every bite. The star dish was definitely the bossam, which was marinated and braised to perfection. I do notice that the customers are mainly Korean which is a good sign that this place serves authentic Korean food!
