Mama Doenjang Sangam: A Delicious and Healthy Lunch Spot for Sangam Office Workers

Lunchtime is a precious break in the midst of a tiring work life. Finding a place that offers a balanced meal, a neat and satisfying spread, and doesn't leave you feeling bloated afterwards is a real treat.
For Sangam office workers looking for a satisfying and fuss-free lunch, I highly recommend...

<Branch Information>
There are more branches than I thought! It seems they are mainly located in areas with offices or commercial districts.
<Menu>
Their most popular menu items are the 10,000 KRW Doenjang (fermented soybean paste) set meals!
The set includes:
- Yeolmu Bibimbap (young radish bibimbap)
- Doenjang Jjigae (doenjang stew)
- Grilled Pork Belly
- Fresh Cheonggukjang (fermented soybean stew)
The combination is well-rounded and harmonious!
Whether you choose the sea snails, clams, or beef doenjang jjigae, they're all delicious. It's best to choose according to your preference.
Personally, I recommend sea snails > clams > beef!
Today, I went with the sea snail doenjang jjigae.
The set also includes:

- A perfectly cooked soft-boiled fried egg
- Crunchy, spicy, and tangy yeolmu bibimbap
- Five slices of golden-brown grilled pork belly
- Fresh cheonggukjang to enhance the flavor of the bibimbap
And...
The doenjang jjigae that tests whether you're a true Korean office worker or a foreigner - YES, it's a boiling pot! Don't worry, it won't boil forever.
Mama Doenjang's doenjang jjigae is said to be made without any chemical seasonings. Perhaps that's why it has a clean and refreshing taste, with the individual ingredients shining through, rather than being thick and savory.
Some may prefer a stronger flavor, but I love that it doesn't leave a heavy aftertaste!





I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a healthy and satisfying lunch!
