After checking out of a pension and before heading to the outlets, the writer used the kiosk to order two servings of traditional budae jjigae at 11,000 won per person as a late brunch, and the broth was deep and rich enough that rice went into the pot at the end.

We checked out of our pension around 11am and were looking for somewhere to eat lunch when we found this Heyri Village spot. We were about to head straight to the outlets, but decided to fuel up properly with lunch first before shopping! ![Exterior of Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae in Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-01-pnath-966.webp) ## Where is Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae, and what are its hours and parking? Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae is located at 506 Pilseung-ro, Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and is open daily from 09:30 to 20:30, with last order at 20:00. There's a separate parking area out back too, which makes it easy to visit. We were looking for somewhere close to both our accommodation and the outlets, and that's how we ended up here — Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae. It's also close to Heyri Village and Provence in Paju. ![Entrance of the budae jjigae restaurant near Heyri Village](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-02-a5bwj-966.webp) ## Inside the 80-seat dining room: room for groups too The interior of Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae is spacious, with fairly generous spacing between tables. With 80 seats, it's great for eating together in a large group. Apparently a lot of people visiting or traveling in this area come here to eat. ![Interior of the 80-seat restaurant with generously spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-03-jlpuu-966.webp) ![Menu sign for budae jjigae and grilled dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-04-1r57j-966.webp) Besides budae jjigae, they also serve grilled dakgalbi (spicy stir-fried chicken) on a hot plate, tteokgalbi (grilled short rib patties), dumplings, grilled Spam, and more, so it's great for families where everyone can pick what they want. They use Hansuwi Paju rice, and water and side dishes are self-serve. ![Pot of traditional budae jjigae loaded with ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-05-122k6-1200.webp) ## Ordering traditional budae jjigae for two, plus the rest of the menu Looking through the menu, we went with the most basic option — two servings of budae jjigae. This Heyri Village favorite has several varieties to choose from depending on your taste: traditional budae jjigae, aged-kimchi budae jjigae, spicy budae jjigae, and chadol (beef brisket) budae jjigae! The pot was loaded with sausage, bean sprouts, meat, kimchi, and more. ![Two servings of budae jjigae topped with sausage, bean sprouts, and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-06-1prec-966.webp) ![Broth kettle placed on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-07-c3fyc-966.webp) Each table has its own broth kettle, and you order at the kiosk. The basic side dishes are set out for you, but if you run out, you can grab more from the self-serve bar. ![Table set with basic side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-08-pbv3l-966.webp) Haha, we visited early so we ended up eating this as a late brunch, but the place got more crowded the longer we stayed. Definitely a Heyri Village favorite that's perfect for lunch. The basic side dishes were stir-fried fish cake, seasoned bean sprouts, and kimchi. ![Stir-fried fish cake, seasoned bean sprouts, and kimchi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-09-y6c34-966.webp) ![Bowl of rice served alongside the budae jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-10-1rmw1-966.webp) ## How the broth tastes and which toppings to add The traditional budae jjigae at Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae comes with a bowl of rice included — I wanted another bowl but held back. It was packed with sausage and all sorts of ingredients, and once the broth started boiling, that amazing smell filled the air. After checking out, I was hungry and just wanted to dig in right away. ![Budae jjigae broth starting to boil](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-11-1vm9w-966.webp) The budae jjigae broth was really deep and rich — clean-tasting too! You can also order extra toppings like sausage or bacon separately. Try adding toppings to match your taste. ![Sausage pieces lifted out of the budae jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-12-1aha5-966.webp) ![Bowl of rich budae jjigae broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-13-139qi-966.webp) My boyfriend and I were so hungry we just inhaled this Heyri Village favorite. Honestly, when traveling we often just grab something quick for breakfast or eat on the go, and that day, rushing to check out and get to outlet shopping, we hadn't eaten properly. ![Budae jjigae spread eaten as a late brunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-14-1wlzm-966.webp) ## How much it costs: 11,000 won per person Mom's Uijeongbu Budaejjigae is ₩11,000 per person, so two servings for the two of us came to ₩22,000. Pretty affordable. It was great having such a hearty brunch, and there was a generous amount of sausage too. ![Close-up of budae jjigae loaded with sausage](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-15-105y4-966.webp) ![Serving up the two portions of budae jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-16-wy64l-966.webp) This time we only tried the budae jjigae, but if I go back sometime, I'd love to try the grilled dakgalbi or tteokgalbi too. The broth was rich and the portion was generous. We fished out all the ingredients, and in the end mixed rice into the leftover broth. ![Rice mixed into the leftover budae jjigae broth at the end](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch/paju-heyri-mom-budae-jjigae-brunch-17-cuvfx-966.webp) It was so good we practically inhaled it. Gotta eat well before shopping, haha! If you're searching for good places near Heyri Village or Provence in Paju, give this one a try. We had a hearty meal of two servings of traditional budae jjigae and headed off to the outlets feeling full.
