Entered through the back door, following the pretty back of Ansan local Ttuhyeong Unni’s head

Ansan Jungang-dong Kalguksu restaurant Hongdukkae Kalguksu!

I heard this place is a very famous restaurant

I was introduced to it as a place I’ve been going to for about 1n years!!

There’s a Gojan branch nearby, but this is the Jungang branch ㅎ

It was packed during peak lunch hour.

Luckily, I was able to sit in the last available seat! 😋

Jungang Hongdukkae Kalguksu Menu

Looking at the menu, the signature dish, Shabu Kalguksu, could be ordered for one person.

However, instead of fried rice, barley rice is provided, so please keep that in mind~!

We ordered two servings of clam kalguksu without any hesitation lol.

After ordering, barley rice came out with the basic side dishes.

Mixing it with the gochujang on the table made my appetite return.

The ingredients were simple, but the taste was truly excellent.

Honestly, I could be full just eating this lol.

And the kimchi, what can I say… Kalguksu place kimchi is always delicious.

What was impressive was that the kalguksu here is not served in one large bowl,

but is provided individually for each person.

It’s hygienic and convenient as you don’t need to ladle it out every time!!

The portion size of the kalguksu was so generous, it felt like it wouldn’t

decrease no matter how much I ate.

The broth wasn’t salty and was refreshing, so I could drink it straight from the bowl.

There were plenty of clams too, I piled up the shells in my rice bowl lol.

There was a tanghulu shop nearby, so I finished off with dessert!

Jungang Hongdukkae Kalguksu was a place that satisfied with its taste, portion size, and price.

I highly recommend visiting with family, friends, or a partner 💓
