Late lunch, five dishes at a Haeundae Chinese restaurant: Bueokgan

In short

Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch is a European-style Chinese restaurant on Dalmaji-gil in Haeundae, Busan. Arriving for a late lunch right after break time, three of us shared five dishes — seafood jjamppong at 14,000 won, chili ganjajang, poached-egg pork belly ganjajang, shrimp fried rice and paihuangguo (chilled cucumber salad) — and cleared every plate. Emptying a Chinese restaurant table this completely happens maybe once in five visits, so Bueokgan Chinese is worth a return trip with sweet and sour pork added.

Where is Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch?

Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch is a Chinese restaurant on the 1st floor at 200 Dalmaji-gil117beon-na-gil, Haeundae-gu, Busan. I came up to Dalmaji Hill in Haeundae. BUUK is read as "bueok." BUUK — today I came to the Chinese restaurant branch.

I had work near Dalmaji Hill and came after finishing. Turned out break time was in effect.

May only good things keep happening.

It was windy, so a spicy jjamppong broth sounded good. If you're coming by bus, take Haeundae-gu Bus 2 or Haeundae-gu Bus 10.

Five dishes for three people and what they cost

We ordered a bit of everything at Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch: seafood jjamppong ₩14,000, chili ganjajang ₩10,000, poached-egg pork belly ganjajang ₩10,000, shrimp fried rice ₩10,000, paihuangguo ₩8,000.

A dish I'd never seen before, paihuangguo (Chinese-style smashed cucumber salad) — cucumbers smashed and tossed with soy sauce, vinegar, and minced garlic, served cold. It adds a refreshing cut to the often-oily Chinese food.

Jachai (preserved mustard tuber) is salty and crunchy, and it pairs well with the richer dishes.

It was piled so high I dug around to see what was underneath. Grabbed a few bites before the other dishes arrived — it was past lunchtime and we were hungry.

I thought the jjajang would taste even better with some spice. It was a lot, so I set a few aside. Ouch, spicy. There was egg soup too.

Looking at the restaurant's payment data, the most popular dish turns out to be poached-egg pork belly ganjajang. Second place is beef brisket jjamppong, and third is black vinegar sweet and sour pork — worth keeping in mind.

How do the shrimp fried rice and poached-egg pork belly ganjajang taste?

Shrimp fried rice is ₩10,000, so not pricey — an easy order. The rice is fried just right, chewy and satisfying. The plump shrimp are savory and delicious. The jjajang I occasionally tried alongside it added sweetness and nuttiness. It's just one bowl of fried rice, but with three of us splitting it in small portions, we got to taste a bunch of different flavors.

The Haeundae branch of Bueokgan runs a Chinese restaurant, a Western restaurant, and a bakery café all together — the Chinese restaurant is just one part of it.

This one is the poached-egg five-layer-pork ganjajang. Thick five-layer pork belly with a poached egg you break open, which softens the otherwise dry sauce as you eat. Adding crisp cucumber makes it even better.

How big is the seafood jjamppong serving?

Seafood jjamppong, ₩14,000. The bok choy on top of the seafood jjamppong is a deep green that's a pleasure just to look at.

The noodles have real depth of flavor. Twirl them onto your chopsticks and put them in your mouth — it's a pleasure.

There's a lot piled up. Twice the portion of most restaurants. A sprinkle of sesame seeds even shows the care put into it.

I couldn't stop. Not greasy, clean-tasting, not too salty either — just right. Scraped the bowl clean with a spoon.

Really delicious, great color

Worth going back? Sweet and sour pork next time

Finishing a Chinese restaurant meal this thoroughly is something that happens maybe once in five tries... though of course we were hungry too... Bueokgan is a place I want to come back to. And now that I think about it, we skipped sweet and sour pork — got too caught up ordering everything else. Next time, I need to remember the sweet and sour pork.
