Over lunch with her husband, the writer ordered Cheongwon budae-jjigae for two with extra glass noodles, received a free egg roll for writing a receipt review, and used the self-serve bar for unlimited rice and ramyeon refills. The broth at Cheongwon is clean and sharply spicy rather than heavy, an easy, familiar meal even after a long gap between visits. ## Good to know - **Menu lineup**: Songtan budae-jjigae, Cheongwon budae-jjigae, pork cutlet - **Order**: Cheongwon budae-jjigae (2 servings) + extra glass noodles - **Cheongwon budae-jjigae ingredients**: Thin-sliced beef brisket, cheongyang chili, ham, sausage - **Self-serve bar**: Unlimited rice and ramyeon noodle refills - **Free egg roll**: Arrive before 11:30am or write a receipt review - **High chair**: Available - **Parking**: Spaces in front of the restaurant, but full on the day; parked in a nearby alley - **Location**: 32-4 Dujeongsangga 4-gil, Seobuk-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, 1st floor *as written by the visitor on Aug 20, 2026* ![Cheongwon Restaurant's signature Cheongwon budae-jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-01-1irsw-1200.webp) A budae-jjigae (army stew) spot in Dujeong-dong worth remembering: Cheongwon Restaurant's clean, mildly spicy broth. I was craving budae-jjigae so I stopped by Cheongwon Restaurant again after a while. I'd been a few times before, but this time I went for lunch with my husband. The stew here is great, but the generous egg roll that comes with it is one of the reasons I love this place haha. Here's my story from revisiting this Dujeong-dong favorite — still just as good! ## Where is Cheongwon's Dujeong branch, and where do you park? Cheongwon Restaurant: Cooking Budae-jjigae, Cheonan Dujeong Main Branch sits in the Dujeong-dong food alley. There's a parking lot in front, but it was full when we arrived, so we parked in the surrounding alley and walked over ㅠㅠ!! ![Exterior of Cheongwon Restaurant in the Dujeong-dong food alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-02-1dwvr-900.webp) ![View of the parking area in front of Cheongwon Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-03-o7f6g-900.webp) ![Alley scene near the entrance of Cheongwon Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-04-eiq3j-900.webp) There are quite a lot of tables inside, and since it was lunchtime, plenty of people were already eating. ![Busy dining hall at Cheongwon Restaurant during lunchtime](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-05-1jhuh-900.webp) ## Cheongwon's self-serve bar: unlimited rice, ramyeon and a high chair There's a separate self-serve bar on one side of the restaurant where you can get unlimited refills of rice and ramyeon noodles! ![Self-serve bar with unlimited rice and ramyeon noodle refills](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-06-fb0st-900.webp) Since I go out with kids, I always check whether there's a baby chair — and Cheongwon Restaurant has one ready 😊 ![Baby chair set up at Cheongwon Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-07-13733-966.webp) The menu includes Songtan budae-jjigae and Cheongwon budae-jjigae, plus pork cutlet, so there's no need to worry about what to order even if you bring kids haha. ![Menu board listing Songtan budae-jjigae, Cheongwon budae-jjigae, and pork cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-08-29dxz-966.webp) ## Cheongwon budae-jjigae for two with extra glass noodles We ordered two servings of Cheongwon budae-jjigae. It comes with beef short rib slices and cheongyang chili. ![Cheongwon budae-jjigae set for two servings](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-09-oh6zn-900.webp) There was also a generous amount of ham and sausage, and we added a serving of glass noodles, which we love. ![Budae-jjigae with ham, sausage, and added glass noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-10-18qt0-900.webp) ## How to get the free egg roll at Cheongwon One of the reasons I love this place is the egg roll!! ![Thick free egg roll served as a complimentary side](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-11-kc9gg-900.webp) We wrote a receipt review and got the egg roll for free. Even as a freebie, it was a generous portion, packed with egg, thick and delicious haha. Egg prices aren't exactly low these days, so getting such a generous egg roll for free made it even better. You can get it free if you visit before 11:30am, or by writing a receipt review. ## Clean but sharply spicy broth, finished with ramyeon noodles Cheongwon Restaurant's budae-jjigae has a broth that isn't too intense — it's clean and light, which is exactly what I like about it. It's spicy enough to have some kick without being overwhelming, so I kept eating it with rice, bite after bite haha. ![Cheongwon budae-jjigae simmering with its clean, mildly spicy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-12-nbbuw-900.webp) The added glass noodles soaked up the broth nicely and were delicious too. ![Broth-soaked glass noodles lifted out of the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-13-1tnzs-900.webp) And since budae-jjigae just isn't the same without ramyeon noodles haha, we added a serving of ramyeon at the end. ![Budae-jjigae with ramyeon noodles added at the end](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch-14-nfe0b-900.webp) We were already pretty full, but we still finished off the ramyeon noodles without missing a beat hahaha. Maybe because it had been a while since I'd visited, it felt extra nice this time. It brought back memories of eating here before, and the flavor was still just as familiar — a comfortable, satisfying meal. ## Honest verdict on Cheongwon in Dujeong-dong I've been here a few times, and even after a while it was just as good haha. I especially love that the broth is clean and mild rather than intense. We got to enjoy a generous egg roll on top of unlimited rice and ramyeon refills, so the two of us left really full. My husband, trying it for the first time, said it was delicious too, so I was glad we came together haha. If you're looking for a budae-jjigae spot in Dujeong-dong, I recommend Cheongwon Restaurant! I'll be back the next time I'm craving budae-jjigae 😊 ## Where it is - Cheongwon Restaurant: Cooking Budae-jjigae, Cheonan Dujeong Main Branch (청원식당 부대찌개를 끓이다 천안두정본점) - 32-4 Dujeongsangga 4-gil, Seobuk-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea, 1st floor - 충청남도 천안시 서북구 두정상가4길 32-4 1층 - 36.8326276, 127.1430023 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B2%AD%EC%9B%90%EC%8B%9D%EB%8B%B9%20%EB%B6%80%EB%8C%80%EC%B0%8C%EA%B0%9C%EB%A5%BC%20%EB%81%93%EC%9D%B4%EB%8B%A4%20%EC%B2%9C%EC%95%88%EB%91%90%EC%A0%95%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@36.8326276,127.1430023,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@chungcheong-served/cheongwon-sikdang-dujeong-budaejjigae-lunch/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
