The staff, dressed in modernized Hanbok (Korean traditional clothing), will guide you to your seat.
I arrived shortly after the 11 AM opening, and already more than half the seats were occupied.
It smelled like a real great restaurant!

Daebomyeongga uses domestic ingredients for its rice, Korean beef, pork, kimchi, red pepper powder, sesame oil, and perilla oil.
With the main ingredients and seasonings being domestic, what's not to love?

The menu is quite simple:
Jecheon Medicinal Herb Platter (75,000 KRW)
Jecheon Medicinal Herb Set Meal (20,000 KRW)
The rice served differs depending on gender.
For reference, the rice portion is the same for men and women!

Korean Beef Jecheon Medicinal Herb Rice Cake Patty (28,000 KRW)
Besides the set meal and rice cake patty, they only serve drinks and alcohol.

The paper on the table lists the dishes and side dishes included in each menu.
You get the feeling that they put a lot of care into making each dish.

Two types of salads are served as appetizers:
1. Lettuce + Grapefruit + Sprouts
2. Chicken Breast + Cucumber + Mustard

The sauce, whether it was developed in-house, had a unique taste and was great for stimulating the appetite.

The main dishes and side dishes arrived.
The main dishes – Tofu and Eggplant Fried with Soy Sauce, Cheonggukjang (fermented soybean stew), and Pork – cost an additional 3,000 KRW for refills, but the rest are free.

My mom tasted each dish and said that she could feel the care that went into the ingredients and flavors.
If a place is approved by the tastes of older people, it's a truly great restaurant, right?
Various wild greens such as Eleuthero, Mulberry Leaf, Deodeok (lanceolata), and Gomchwi (Ligularia fischeri) were served.
Unlike the usual seasoned wild greens, each one had a very unique taste.
Eating them makes you feel healthier.
With a high-quality set meal like this for 20,000 KRW, I have to go often.

The Tofu and Eggplant Fried with Soy Sauce felt like the tofu and eggplant were lightly fried and then braised.
The soybean paste stew, close to Cheonggukjang, was clear yet deep in flavor.
The eggplant and broccoli tempura seemed to be coated in clean oil + turmeric powder, giving the batter a yellow color.

The pork seemed to be grilled with a soy sauce-like base.
It was delicious, but what was really unexpected was that we left some meat on the table, which is very uncommon in my family.
Because the side dishes like wild greens were so delicious, the meat took a backseat. Isn't that amazing?
Stone Pot Rice

The stone pot rice also felt like it was mixed with something other than plain white rice.
When I opened the lid, it was filled with the scent of herbal medicine and jujube.
I realized once again that they don't make even the rice carelessly, as it was mixed with jujubes and walnuts.

The scorched rice was also savory and thick, making it a clean ending to the meal.
I usually don't eat scorched rice, but whether it was because they used good rice or added some medicinal herbs, it was so delicious.
It was a flavor that invites overeating!
Dessert

The meal was perfectly finished with Omija tea for dessert!
Overall Review
My mom kept saying 'It was a really delicious place' all the way home, so it was definitely a great restaurant.
I highly recommend it for a Korean set meal course for family gatherings with parents.
I was satisfied with each dish in the 20,000 KRW set meal to the point where I wondered if it was priced too low.
I recommend it if you want a healthy and high-quality Korean meal.
Looking for another great place~
