The editor introduces “Hackbap(핵밥)”, a restaurant in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, a hot place for the MZ generation that he visits again and again.

Seongsu-dong is a popular travel destination with many things to eat, see, and do. In addition, there are many pretty cafes and restaurants that are great for posting on social media.
I tried “Hack rice(핵밥)” for dinner in Seongsu-dong, where I visited after a long time!

Hack Rice (핵밥)

2nd floor, 7 Yeonmujang 7-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, Korea

You can get there by walking for about 2 minutes from Exit 4 of Seongsu Station. (about 181m)
It’s on the second floor of the building, so look carefully.
This is a restaurant with a waiting list, so you may have to wait a bit. If there is no waiting, you are lucky.

There is a menu at the entrance. You can check to see if the food you want is there before you go in.
There are a variety of prices and menus, from 9,900 won for a single menu to 18,900 won for a set menu.
Now, let’s go up to the second floor!

At the entrance on the second floor, there are chairs where you can wait. But my timing was perfect and I was able to get in right away! Lucky!

You can place your order using a tablet screen that looks like this. What I really liked was that it supports languages ​​such as English, Japanese, and Chinese. You can also make payments right away with this machine, and it also has a Dutch Pay payment function! It is very convenient as there is no need to call a separate employee.

1. Salmon shrimp sauce rice bowl (연어새우장덮밥 / 13,900 won)

This is the “salmon shrimp sauce rice bowl” I ate when I first came here. There is a generous amount of fresh salmon and sweet and salty marinated shrimp.
Rather than eating this food by mixing it together, you have to pop the yolk on top and eat it with a spoon along with the rice and salmon.

2. Jeongjeongsal Rice Bowl (항정살덮밥 / 9,900won)

“Hangjeongsal Rice Bowl(항정살덮밥)” is a dish made by frying pork neck meat, onions, cabbage, pine mushrooms, and kwi peppers with spicy seasoning and placing it on rice.
If you can’t eat spicy food at all, please note that this is spicy food. However, if you enjoy spicy food, it will be a satisfying meal.The sweet and spicy seasoning stimulates the appetite, and the chewy texture of the meat is very interesting. The meat is very thick and has a lot of it.

There are many other menus available, so choose one that suits your taste. If you eat only a small amount, you can choose a set menu or add a side if you usually eat a lot of single dishes.

All menus come with rice cakes drizzled with honey for dessert. It’s sweet and chewy, so it’s perfect for dessert. When you take a bite, there is cheese inside the rice cake, making it even more delicious.

This is how I introduced the rice bowl specialty restaurant “Haekbap.” How about a bowl of nuclear rice?
