We enjoyed beef cream risotto, pork loin cutlet, and quattro cheese pizza with our child in its spacious dining room and private room. Midam Kitchen is a comfortable choice for an unhurried lunch on busy Hwangridan-gil. In the early autumn, with a cool breeze in the air, we took a little trip to Gyeongju. 🌿 ![Early autumn outing atmosphere in Gyeongju](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-01-20aj5-900.webp) *I love this Gyeongju atmosphere so much 💚* You know what they say—food comes first! As soon as we arrived, we looked for a good lunch spot on Hwangridan-gil. I’d like to introduce a place where you can enjoy a relaxed meal with your child. ## Midam Kitchen and the tranquil mood of Hwangridan-gil ![Exterior of Midam Kitchen with a hanok and lawn](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-02-jz627-1200.webp) Its exterior has that unmistakable Hwangridan-gil charm, so we spotted it right away from afar. The cozy atmosphere of the hanok and green lawn was so pretty. We arrived right at opening time and went in as the very first guests. 😎 ![Garden view at Midam Kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-03-189gs-900.webp) Isn’t the garden lovely? 💚 ## A relaxed meal in a spacious dining room and private room ![Relaxed dining space at Midam Kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-04-1d950-900.webp) Restaurants on Hwangridan-gil are usually small, crowded, and noisy. Midam Kitchen felt much more relaxed. The tables were large and generously spaced, making it easy to talk without worrying about the people around us, and it even had private rooms. ![Restaurant interior with generously spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-05-1qrea-900.webp) ![Dining space with private rooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-06-jop05-900.webp) Even while we were eating, guests kept coming in—from couples on dates to families with children—but the space was roomy, so it never felt distracting and remained comfortable. ![Restaurant seating in a relaxed atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-07-1kb1i-900.webp) ![Our seating area at Midam Kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-08-ztsik-900.webp) *This is where we sat ✔️* Most touching of all, the owner noticed our child right away and thoughtfully brought out children’s tableware. It may seem like a small thing, but that kind consideration put us in such a good mood before the meal had even begun. 😎 ![Children’s tableware for a child’s meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-09-1opzm-900.webp) When you go out to eat with a child, you really appreciate these little touches. 💛 ## Beef cream risotto, pork loin cutlet, and quattro cheese pizza ![Table kiosk for ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-10-bhgbz-900.webp) ![Selection of ordered Western dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-11-3tzjh-900.webp) Ordering was easy and convenient through the table kiosk. We ordered three dishes—beef cream risotto, pork loin cutlet, and quattro cheese pizza—and the portions were generous enough for our family of three. ### Beef cream risotto ![Beef cream risotto with smooth cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-12-i4azg-900.webp) The cream sauce was smooth, while the rice grains were plump and pleasantly chewy, so we really enjoyed it. Rather than having the soft, spread-out rice texture typical of risotto, the grains still had a nice bite, which I personally loved. If you like cream sauce, I think you’ll find it reliably delicious. My husband and I thought this was the best dish. Highly recommended‼️ ### Pork loin cutlet ![Large pork loin cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-13-1mhak-900.webp) And then there was the pork loin cutlet, which surprised us a little the moment it arrived, haha. Owner!! Shouldn’t this be renamed the “giant pork loin cutlet”? 😂 It was one of the biggest pork cutlets I’ve ever seen. ![Giant pork loin cutlet filling the plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-14-ei8cu-900.webp) It looked two or three times the size of my husband’s hand 🥹. The cutlet filled the plate, so it was satisfying from the moment we saw it, and it tasted good too. I think it would be especially nice to order and share with your child. ### Quattro cheese pizza ![Quattro cheese pizza generously topped with cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-15-1hzj5-900.webp) The pizza was generously topped with cheese and came with honey for dipping, and the combination was so good. ![Pizza with honey sauce, jalapeños, and pickled radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-16-vjiv1-900.webp) Pizza honey sauce, jalapeños, and pickled radish to enjoy alongside it. Even the crust was nutty and warm, as though it had just come out of a wood-fired oven, so it was delicious. Our pizza-loving child kept saying it was yummy and happily munched away. ## When you want a comfortable lunch on Hwangridan-gil Hwangridan-gil has so many pretty cafés and great restaurants, but because it gets so busy, it isn’t easy to find somewhere quiet and relaxed for a meal. ![Spacious Midam Kitchen dining area for a relaxed meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room-17-h4gpt-900.webp) Midam Kitchen has wide spacing between tables and a generally roomy interior, so it was a great place to visit when we wanted to step away from Hwangridan-gil’s bustling atmosphere and eat comfortably. With private rooms too, it seemed like a good option for family meals or gatherings, and it would be lovely for a date as well! If you’re looking for somewhere to have lunch on Hwangridan-gil during your Gyeongju trip, you might want to stop by Midam Kitchen. Our family finished a filling lunch and headed back out to explore Hwangridan-gil. :) ## Where it is - Midam Kitchen (미담키친) (미담키친) - 33 Cheomseong-ro 49beon-gil, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea - 경상북도 경주시 첨성로49번길 33 미담키친 - 35.836035, 129.2075997 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%AF%B8%EB%8B%B4%ED%82%A4%EC%B9%9C/@35.836035,129.2075997,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-morning-cup/gyeongju-hwangridan-gil-tonkatsu-room/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
