The Geumdong Busan Branch: Where Samgyeopsal Dreams Come True!
Today's featured restaurant!
End your Busan company dinner location worries! At The Geumdong Busan Branch in Kyungsung, you can enjoy Samgyeopsal (Korean BBQ), Doenjang-jjigae (fermented soybean paste stew), and SOTBAP (솥밥) - rice cooked in a stone pot!
You can eat Samgyeopsal anywhere, but The Geumdong Busan Branch ensures you enjoy it deliciously from start to finish :)
We ordered:
✔ 3 servings of Samgyeopsal (Korean pork belly BBQ)
✔ Jirisan Sancheong Country Doenjang-jjigae (perilla leaves optional)
✔ Freshly Cooked SOTBAP (for 2 people)
These are the most basic, yet essential menu items. You'll immediately feel that their fundamentals are solid.
"We'll grill the meat for you!"
Their slogan is very straightforward.
“Focus on your conversation, we'll grill the meat for you.”
True to their word, the staff grills the Samgyeopsal on the grill from beginning to end.
All you have to do is sit back, chat, take pictures, and eat!
The staff expertly grilled the premium 1+ grade Korean Samgyeopsal, locking in all the juices, which made it exceptionally delicious.
This attention to detail makes it easy to see why it's known as a Busan Daeyeon-dong 맛집 (delicious restaurant)!
The key to side dish perfection: Radish Salad (Musaengchae)
What's essential at any great Samgyeopsal restaurant? The side dishes, of course!
And the best side dish here was definitely the Musaengchae.
They give you a generous portion, not just a few bites, so you can wrap it with the meat, put it on rice, and enjoy it in various ways.
Especially if you put a slice of Samgyeopsal with wasabi and Musaengchae...
Wow, it was so delicious!
Because of this combination alone, I'll be revisiting 100%!
Country Doenjang-jjigae – The Essence of Rich Soybean Paste
The Country Doenjang-jjigae made with ingredients from Jirisan Sancheong lived up to its name.
The broth was deep and rich without being too salty, making it a perfect complement to the Samgyeopsal.
Honestly, some Korean BBQ places have bland Doenjang-jjigae, or it just feels like a side dish.
But here, even the Doenjang-jjigae felt like a main course.
It was a total rice thief!
It was the perfect, clean way to end the meal.
Definitely a Busan Samgyeopsal 맛집 (delicious restaurant) with even the stew being amazing!
The Charm of Freshly Cooked SOTBAP
The grand finale was the freshly cooked SOTBAP.
It's cooked right in a small cast iron pot, and the moment you open the lid, fragrant steam and the aroma of rice wafts up.
There was even sweet pumpkin on top of the rice, which was delicious together.
Is it true that if the rice is good, any dish is delicious?
And even the rice spoon was so cute! A rabbit appeared 🐰
The moment I took a spoonful of the delicious rice, I was happy just eating the rice without the Samgyeopsal.
After scooping out the rice, pour hot water into the pot to make *Sungnyung* (scorched rice tea) – definitely try it!
Putting the grilled meat, Doenjang-jjigae broth, Musaengchae, and SOTBAP into my mouth at the same time... happiness is right now!
Perhaps because of these details, it's not just famous as a Kyungsung Samgyeopsal 맛집 (delicious restaurant), but also recognized as a great place for company dinners in Busan.
Atmosphere & Service
The Geumdong Busan Branch was clean and pleasant overall.
Above all, the staff was friendly, grilling the meat and refilling the side dishes at just the right time, allowing us to enjoy our meal comfortably.
With this level of service quality, it would be perfect for friend gatherings, family meals, and even company dinners.
