Cream soup before the meal and self-serve jangguk broth

Not long after ordering, a warm soup arrived first — a gyeongyangsik pork cutlet meal just isn't the same without soup! It's the classic cream soup style, not too watery, not too thick — just the right consistency. One spoonful and it goes down smooth and savory, warming you up from the inside. Warming up your stomach with a bowl of soup before the main cutlet arrives — that's the proper gyeongyangsik order of things.

And the broth is self-serve. You can ladle as much as you like — it's clear and light, so sipping a bit between bites of cutlet cleans the oiliness right off your palate. No need to feel shy about refilling as much as you want — I loved that too!

What comes on the handmade pork cutlet plate

Ta-da. The full pork cutlet spread at Dal and Sixpence Main Branch, a favorite near Busan Station. This Choryang spot serves handmade sauce and freshly fried pork cutlets — just look at the visuals, instant pass 👏🏻

The basic side dish is kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), and the rice comes in a really generous portion too — love that.

How spicy is the spicy pork cutlet at Dal and Sixpence?

The spicy pork cutlet at this Busan Station favorite comes with a large cutlet laid out on the plate, generously topped with a reddish sauce. Sides like cabbage salad and macaroni salad fill out the plate — this setup is gyeongyangsik through and through, and honestly a little exciting 🤤

The cutlet's breading is thin and well-adhered, and the meat, hand-pounded, is thick yet tender with visible grain, not chewy at all. Bite in and the sauce has soaked in nicely, but the outside stays crispy while the inside stays juicy!

The spiciness of the spicy pork cutlet isn't a harsh, tongue-punching heat — it's exactly the kind of spicy that tastes good. First the sweet savoriness of the gyeongyangsik sauce hits, then a gentle spiciness follows, and that heat doesn't linger too long, fading pleasantly — so even people who aren't great with spice could handle it, while spice lovers will find it downright addictive with rice 🕵🏻‍♂️ Dal and Sixpence is officially a solid pick for gyeongyangsik pork cutlet in Busan!!

The pepper and cheese tip that makes the spicy cutlet taste better

And here's a foodie tip for eating it even better ✨ Sprinkle a little pepper on the spicy pork cutlet and the spicy sauce gains a sharp, fragrant depth — the flavor becomes way more three-dimensional, cuts through any richness, and makes the meat taste even more intense! Also, take the cheese oozing out of the sweet potato cheese pork cutlet and pile it generously on the spicy pork cutlet — together they make a spicy cheese pork cutlet 😋

Sweet potato cheese pork cutlet at 12,500 won: overflowing cheese, sweet and salty

Next up, the sweet potato cheese pork cutlet. The visuals alone are wild 💛 The cutlet is piled generously, really generously, with sweet potato mousse — just looking at that yellow mousse, you can practically smell the sweetness rising off it.

Cut into the sweet potato cheese pork cutlet at this Busan Station favorite and the cheese really does overflow! No exaggeration — it stretches on and on, to the point of dripping right onto the plate, and cheese lovers will absolutely cheer at this moment 👍🏻

The sweet potato mousse isn't overly sweet — it keeps the natural sweetness of sweet potato, so it goes down smoothly without feeling heavy! Sweet potato sweetness plus savory salty cheese plus crispy breading plus thick pork — all four hit together in one bite, and it's the textbook definition of sweet-and-salty done right 🤎
