01 LOCAL TABLEUijeongbu Budaejjigae
Uijeongbu Budaejjigae is a straightforward Korean stew restaurant in Seogyo-dong, on the western side of the Hongdae area. Its menu is focused almost entirely on Budaejjigae, a bubbling Korean stew made with ham, sausage, vegetables and other ingredients in a savory, slightly spicy broth. The current price is ₩13,000 per serving, with ham, sausage, noodles, glass noodles and rice cake available as additional toppings. The restaurant's appeal is less about polished presentation and more about the way the stew is prepared and served. Recent reviews repeatedly mention the generous ingredients, abundant glass noodles and the owner actively checking the pot and adding broth at the right time. It is the kind of place where you can simply sit back while the stew is brought to the right stage for eating.
