Icheon Restaurant Somunnan Kalguksu Review: Visited After Watching Tzuyang’s Mukbang
Gyeonggi Province Icheon Located at Seolbong-ro 58beon-gil 30, Somunnan Kalguksu was a place I had long dreamed of visiting after watching Tzuyang’s mukbang. Finally, I had the chance to taste it by coming all the way to Icheon. I arrived just as they were opening, so luckily, there were plenty of seats. As expected of a popular restaurant, the walls were covered with autographs from famous celebrities. As soon as we placed our order, the place quickly filled up with customers.
Menu Selection and Side Dishes
After looking at the menu at Somunnan Kalguksu, two of us decided to order the small size of ‘Myeon-nakji’ with medium spiciness.
The kimchi and broth provided as basic side dishes were impressive. The beef bone broth, in particular, was deep and delicious, perfect for sobering up after a night of heavy drinking.
Generous Portions and Spicy Flavor of ‘Myeon-nakji’
When the ‘Myeon-nakji’ we ordered arrived, it was not only visually satisfying but also had a spicy aroma that stimulated the appetite. The food came out without much of a wait, and the portion size was truly generous. It felt like it wouldn’t run out no matter how much we ate. Despite overeating that day, we still had a little food left.
The medium spice level was deliciously spicy, but if you’re not good with spicy food, I would recommend the ‘slightly spicy’ option. If you enjoy spicy food, ordering the ‘spicy’ level would be good. There was a generous amount of octopus, so I highly recommend it to those who love stir-fried octopus. If you find the portion insufficient, you can add rice and mix it in, making it an excellent value for money. It was such a satisfying restaurant that I plan to visit again soon.
