The spacious restaurant has its own parking lot and an all-you-can-refill selection. Verdict: a filling, gentle-on-the-stomach full-course meal for sharing. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Monday–Sunday 11:00–21:00 - **Last order**: 20:10 - **Parking**: On-site parking available - **Ordered**: Full Table Special Shabu Kalguksu - **Refills**: Beef mushroom radish rice, fresh kimchi, young-radish kimchi, sanghwang mushroom broth, and sesame oil *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* Mrs. Po went to Gimpo to meet a close older friend. These days, when I make plans with friends, I try to choose something healthy and easy on the stomach. There was a time when I thought I could live on spaghetti three meals a day, but now my stomach and taste buds have gotten old, hahaha... But this old-lady-haha has picky taste, so I’m always hunting down places that are healthy and delicious. ![Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu signature meal spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-01-1ri1a-900.webp) ## Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu, found in Gimpo > Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu 🌿 ![Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu restaurant information](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-02-he2xn-900.webp) This popular spot was even featured on KBS VJ Special Force for its sanghwang mushroom broth, rye kalguksu (knife-cut noodles), and warm boiled pork by a master of the dish. Excitedly, we put it in the navigation and arrived at the parking lot. ![Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu standalone building and parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-03-14yrl-900.webp) It is a large standalone building, so you will spot it right away if you are nearby. It has a huge private parking lot, so no parking worries. This was how relaxed it was at 5 p.m. on a weekday. It seems like an easy meeting point for group gatherings where everyone drives separately. - Monday–Sunday 11:00–21:00 - Last order at 20:10 ## What is the spacious, pleasant interior like? > Inside Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu Gimpo Main Branch The moment we opened the door and stepped in, a pretty pond greeted us 🌸 It felt like arriving at an upscale Korean set-menu restaurant. ![Pond at the restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-04-cb9dc-900.webp) The dining room is incredibly spacious and pleasant. The high ceiling makes it feel even roomier. ![Spacious and pleasant restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-05-jpt96-900.webp) ![Dining area with widely spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-06-1otlo-900.webp) The tables are well spaced and the whole restaurant is neat, so even a large group could chat comfortably without it feeling crowded or noisy. Let’s look over the menu and order! ![Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-07-10m5t-832.webp) ## Ordering the Full Table Special Shabu Kalguksu We ordered the best-selling Full Table Special Shabu Kalguksu. Wow, so many different events!

Mrs. Po has a small stomach, so I skipped it to focus on the main meal, but I highly recommend it if you come for a family meal with children. ![Popcorn event for writing a review](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-11-146js-900.webp) ![Family dining event information](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-12-595bn-900.webp) There is also free misutgaru (multigrain powder drink) and pressed juice for sale. ![Free misutgaru and pressed juice](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-13-1x7jb-900.webp) All-you-can-refill beef mushroom radish rice, fresh kimchi, and young-radish kimchi. ![Beef mushroom radish rice and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-14-1rxg7-900.webp) Fresh kimchi is indispensable with kalguksu. This precious kimchi is made in-house at least twice daily with Korean cabbage brined in drained solar salt. The healthy sanghwang mushroom broth and precious sesame oil pressed at a mill are unlimited too! ![Sanghwang mushroom broth and sesame oil](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-15-4sfoy-899.webp) ## A shabu-shabu spread simmered in sanghwang mushroom broth Wow, the shabu-kalguksu set came out right away, arranged exactly like it was on TV. ![Full Table Special Shabu Kalguksu spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-16-aseki-900.webp) We turned on the heat and let it bubble away. ### Homilwon’s special sanghwang mushroom broth The owner’s philosophy is so wonderful 👍👍👍 ![Information about the special sanghwang mushroom broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-17-fj7hi-900.webp) ![Information about sanghwang mushroom broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-18-1nxzo-900.webp) They say the fresh rye noodles, available only at Homilwon, are easy on the stomach and digest well while still having a pleasantly chewy texture. For the shabu-shabu beef, they use Australian N7 beef—called a premium cut for shabu-shabu, with just the right fat level and excellent quality—sliced directly in the restaurant to 0.8–1 mm, the ideal thickness for shabu-shabu. ![Fresh rye noodles and shabu-shabu beef](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-19-1kg6f-900.webp) And there was smoky stir-fried webfoot octopus and boiled pork that melted in the mouth. ![Smoky stir-fried webfoot octopus and boiled pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-20-142ea-900.webp) The basic garlic sauce was so good. ![Basic garlic sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-21-qjeew-900.webp) ![Shabu-kalguksu accompaniments](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-22-m3j1m-900.webp) First, I took a bite of the smoky webfoot octopus with sesame oil. ![A bite of sesame oil and stir-fried webfoot octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-23-vu9y6-900.webp) Wow, the boiled pork was unbelievably tender and practically melted away. There was not even a hint of smell, and it was delicious. ![Tender shabu-shabu beef](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course-24-8tira-900.webp) Just as the owner said, the shabu beef was not tough at all—so tender that after only a few chews, it went down softly. Then in went the rye kalguksu for round one. We finished with juk (rice porridge), whose broth had deepened with vegetable stock; the fresh scent of minari (water celery) spread through it and cut the richness. It did not taste of harsh seasonings, so my stomach still felt comfortable after I finished. I loved that Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu offered not only vegetable shabu-shabu but also boiled pork and stir-fried webfoot octopus in this varied five-course meal. Enjoy this Gimpo favorite with someone special—for a company dinner, group gathering, meal with parents, or family outing! ❣️ Highly recommended for a satisfying meal. ## Where it is - Homilwon Shabu Kalguksu Gimpo Main Branch (호밀원샤브칼국수 김포본점) - Gadong, 142-17 Geolpo-ro, Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 김포시 걸포로 142-17 가동 - 37.643389, 126.702792 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%98%B8%EB%B0%80%EC%9B%90%EC%83%A4%EB%B8%8C%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%EA%B9%80%ED%8F%AC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.643389,126.702792,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@between-city-tables/gimpo-homilwon-mushroom-broth-course/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
