So here's what I ordered~~~ 👇👇👇 ## What comes in the ₩62,000 Nakji Obongjip Special? > Nakji Obongjip Special (₩62,000) > Rice (₩1,000) The Nakji Obongjip Special comes with stir-fried octopus for two + pork belly bossam + a platter of makguksu. You can't have octopus stir-fry without rice, so I ordered a bowl of that too~! ![Menu order for the Nakji Obongjip Special](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-05-ca5rc-900.webp) Here's a tip for how to enjoy the octopus stir-fry best~~!! ![Sign explaining how to best enjoy the octopus stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-06-180ea-900.webp) ## Self-serve banchan and seaweed soup at Obongjip Samseong Branch Obongjip Samseong Branch brings out this many basic banchan (side dishes). A bowl of seaweed soup also comes out, and every side dish is refillable at the self-serve bar! There's sesame oil on every table too — pour it over the octopus stir-fry when you mix it in and it's seriously delicious 😆 ![Full spread of basic banchan at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-07-sl4r1-900.webp) ![A bowl of seaweed soup with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-08-y6q6t-900.webp) Just scoop up more banchan at the self-serve bar~ they even have seaweed flakes! ![Self-serve bar with banchan and seaweed flakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-09-1j42g-1200.webp) Everything I ordered arrived — the table was basically groaning under it all 😁 ![Table spread of octopus stir-fry, bossam, and makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-10-vs70c-900.webp) ## Stir-fried octopus for two, with whole octopus in it First up, the octopus stir-fry! It comes out as a portion for two. ![Pan-fired octopus stir-fry served for two](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-11-1n79t-900.webp) My partner just drizzled sesame oil all over the octopus stir-fry without a second thought 😆 There was a whole octopus in there. Plump and so appetizing-looking 🤗 the octopus was really chunky. The octopus, cut into easy bite-size pieces, was boiled just right — soft and chewy ☺️ ![A bite-size piece of whole octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-12-3wbtt-900.webp) ![Close-up of the plump octopus in the stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-13-1om3k-900.webp) Octopus is delicious on its own, but it's even better with vegetables. Especially these bean sprouts that come as a side dish!! When the spice hits, pile on the bean sprouts and it tones the heat right down~ or you can just mix the bean sprouts straight in and it's still amazing 😁 kind of like kongbulgogi (bean sprout stir-fry) vibes?! ![A bite of octopus stir-fry topped with bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-14-1n6en-900.webp) ### Mixing rice with sesame oil and seaweed flakes for bibimbap Definitely order at least one bowl of rice and mix it with sesame oil and seaweed flakes 😆 ![Octopus bibimbap mixed with sesame oil and seaweed flakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-15-1clgl-900.webp) There was so much octopus stir-fry left that I could pile it in generously and it still wasn't enough to run out. So much octopus in there 👍 I added sesame oil and mixed it all together properly 😆 Take a bite loaded with plump octopus, and if it gets too spicy, top it with bean sprouts for a clean finish 😆 I also added white kimchi to keep it clean — haha. White kimchi with bean sprouts makes it even more refreshing ☺️ I piled some bossam on top too and took a big bite — haha. ![A spoonful of rice topped with bossam pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-16-147tj-900.webp) ## Pork belly bossam with geotjeori and mu-saengchae (radish salad) Pork belly bossam (boiled pork wrap) comes with it too~ that's the great thing about the Nakji Obongjip Special — you get to eat octopus stir-fry and bossam at the same time hahaha! ![Plate of pork belly bossam served with the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-17-1tgyr-900.webp) The bossam portion was generous, and the fat-to-meat ratio was just right and tender. ![Boiled pork with a good ratio of fat and lean meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-18-13mv9-900.webp) ![Bossam served with vegetable accompaniments](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-19-pg6v8-900.webp) Geotjeori (fresh cabbage kimchi) and mu-saengchae (spicy radish salad) come alongside — haha. The geotjeori is especially good — haha. ![Geotjeori and mu-saengchae served alongside the bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-20-1evh7-900.webp) Soft, tender bossam!~~ Definitely eat it with kimchi 😉 There was so much geotjeori that we had leftovers of that too!!!! The geotjeori was so fresh, and wrapping the bossam in it was incredible. ![A bite of bossam wrapped in geotjeori](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-21-62mma-900.webp) ![A generous plate of geotjeori](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-22-1rlyk-900.webp) The mu-saengchae was of course cool and crunchy — delicious~ ![Cool and crunchy mu-saengchae](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-23-13gdm-900.webp) ## The makguksu platter: how much food is this for two people? Next, the makguksu (buckwheat noodles). It's included in the Nakji Obongjip Special menu, but honestly the whole set really seems like too much for two people 😅 It felt like the right amount for 3-4 people, haha. By the time we finished the noodles too, I thought I was going to burst. But I still couldn't give up on the rice~~~ We just mixed the noodles up without much thought~~ ![Mixed makguksu platter](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people-24-t6tk3-900.webp) The noodle portion looked like about 2 servings too 🤣 Between octopus and bossam, the one that pairs better with the noodles is definitely bossam!~~ There's a reason people eat bossam with makguksu 😆😆 After finishing everything, a cool glass of plum juice was the perfect way to wrap it up 😊 After your meal, you can join the Naver receipt review event and try the lucky draw! Why not head to Obongjip Samseong Branch and fill up on octopus and bossam all in one satisfying meal~~?? ## Where it is - Obongjip Samseong Branch (오봉집 삼성점) - 62 Teheran-ro 81-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, 1st floor, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 테헤란로81길 62 1층 오봉집 - 37.5105267, 127.0558633 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%A4%EB%B4%89%EC%A7%91%20%EC%82%BC%EC%84%B1%EC%A0%90/@37.5105267,127.0558633,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@alley-lunch-token/samseong-ojjip-nakji-special-two-people/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
