Konran

A restaurant where you can enjoy four kinds of Soondubu jjigae and seasoned pork barbecue

Hello. Gyeongju, a millennium heritage site that is sister city to Nara City in Japan, has many historical sites and delicious restaurants. However, about 5-10 minutes by car from Bulguksa Temple, a World Heritage Site located east of the city, there is a restaurant that is highly rated among locals for its delicious Sundubu Jjigae.

Gyeongju has many soybean-based Sundubu Jjigae specialty restaurants, but the taste of the Sundubu Jjigae varies from restaurant to restaurant! The standard menu of this restaurant, Gongirang Set Meal, is popular, and when you order one of the four types, Yeonnaru Sundubu, Kimchi Sundubu, Cheonggukchan Sundubu, or Bizhijjigae, you will receive a bonus of spicy seasoned pork and dubu kimchi.

Around the hot plate for yakiniku, about 18 kinds of delicious side dishes such as jakchae (fried glass noodles), grilled mackerel, and bean pancakes are lined up, and you can enjoy the Konran set meal while heating the unglazed seasoned pork and dubu kimchi on the hot plate in the center of the table. There is also a tonkatsu topped with soybeans for people with children, so I think they will enjoy it too.

This is the very popular Konran set meal.
