The Haidilao Gold Quest (and a Bit of a Detour)


In the first half of 2025, I neglected Haidilao.
Demoted to Silver membership.
It means I spent my money on other delicious things and lived well.
But it still stings, so...
I decided to reclaim my Gold status!
Week 1: Haidilao Daehakro Branch
Unbelievably, they don't have EV charging.
I parked elsewhere, but parking was so expensive that I decided to eat within an hour.
I'm really into tomato soup base lately.
Successfully ate quickly and efficiently!
Week 2: Haidilao Jeju Branch
I went because they opened a branch in Jeju, but there were so many Chinese people. Yeondong (area in Jeju) is basically China. No need to actually go to China! lol
Week 3: No Haidilao. Went to Haohao Steamboat (카오하오스탠). It's Hao Kao Stan (하오카오스탠)! Waited 70 minutes because I didn't make a reservation. Are you kidding me?
Just going to Haidilao next time.
Week 4: Haidilao Konkuk University Branch
Went to Jaraseom to see Kim Yeon-woo (singer), then rushed to Konkuk University to make my reservation time. Braved the rain with the determination to eat Haidilao!
Mmm, delicious.
Ah, can't add music to blogs?
Listen to Key Hunter (song title).
But I don't think I'll be able to reclaim Gold.
Because I don't have any Haidilao plans for the time being.
The End
