After shopping at Shinsegae Department Store, I had three servings of pork belly and anchovy-broth doenjang-jjigae for 2,000 won. Verdict: a satisfying pick for great pork and a spicy, refreshing soup. ## Good to know - **Address**: 36 Oncheon-ro 101beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, South Korea - **Hours**: Daily 09:00–22:20 (last order 21:20) - **Parking**: Roadside parking is available in front of the restaurant - **Included side dishes**: 15 varieties - **Anchovy-broth doenjang-jjigae**: ₩2,000 *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* ![Jeonju House fresh pork belly meal on a cast-iron lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-01-v2im9-900.webp) I went to look around Shinsegae Department Store, then got completely wiped out from shopping and had the hardest time deciding what to eatㅠㅠ 🛍️ It was the weekend, so it was crowded and I was hungry... and when that happens, what sounds better than sizzling grilled meat, right? I searched like crazy for somewhere nearby with good-quality meat and great side dishes, and the reviews were seriously good. I went, was genuinely satisfied, and had to tell you about it right away! ![Jeonju House fresh pork belly table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-02-1b5an-1200.webp) ## Jeonju House at a glance - Location: 36 Oncheon-ro 101beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, South Korea - Hours: Daily 09:00–22:20 (last order 21:20) - Parking: Roadside parking is available in front of the restaurant ![Jeonju House exterior](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-03-2mnhg-900.webp) ## A spacious, comfortable dining room Once I stepped inside, the dining room was much bigger and more comfortable than I expected. ![Spacious dining room at Jeonju House](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-04-6fv6o-900.webp) There were plenty of round and square tables, and I saw quite a few people there for group get-togethers or work dinners!! ![Dining room with round and square tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-05-gfqx7-900.webp) You know a restaurant is the real deal when there are lots of older diners, right??! This place had exactly that vibe. By the entrance, they had a Catchtable waiting-list kiosk, a thoughtful phone-charging area, and even a mix-coffee vending machine that was perfect for a post-meal cup! ![Waiting kiosk and convenience area by the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-06-1xw2p-900.webp) ## Fresh pork belly and a tableful of 15 side dishes I scanned the menu and immediately ordered the signature dish! As soon as I ordered, a huge, shiny, oiled cast-iron pot lid was set right in the middle of the table, and I was already drooling... haha ![Oiled cast-iron pot lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-07-17k63-900.webp) ![Cast-iron pot lid in the center of the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-08-1oquo-900.webp) Then the table filled up with a whopping 15 neat side dishes, including bean sprouts, scallion salad, pickles, and, most importantly, Korean aged kimchi! ![Tableful of side dishes including aged kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-09-1ddv3-900.webp) Every single one had that proper home-cooked feel, so I kept reaching for my chopsticks before the main meat had even arrived. I also loved being able to grab more side dishes comfortably from the self-service bar without feeling self-conscious. ![Side-dish self-service bar in the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-10-a2b4v-900.webp) ![Self-service bar for extra side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-11-1pg9s-900.webp) ## A juicy feast bursting on the cast-iron lid 🔥 Two servings of fresh pork belly! The meat was a vivid rosy red, wonderfully thick, and had the most perfect lean-to-fat ratio. ![Thick fresh pork belly with skin attached](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-12-ia4bz-900.webp) It even came with the skin attached, exactly how I like it. They laid the thick fresh pork belly onto the hot cast-iron lid with that wonderful sizzle, then neatly arranged aged kimchi, bean sprouts, and mushrooms along the path where the fat would run. ![Pork belly and aged kimchi on the cast-iron lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-13-1tvhs-900.webp) I picked up a nicely browned piece and tried it plain, without dipping it in anything. There was absolutely no off smell; the outside was crisp while the inside burst with juice. ![A browned piece of cooked pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-14-1ebcc-900.webp) ![Cooked pork belly showing its juices](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-15-1hcx1-900.webp) The chewy fatty part seemed to double the savory richness!! I put a piece of meat on well-ripened aged kimchi, dipped garlic generously in ssamjang (seasoned soybean paste), wrapped it all in lettuce, and took a huge bite—seriously, it was a party in my mouthㅠㅠ ![Pork belly lettuce wrap with aged kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-16-1jq6d-900.webp) It was so delicious that I ended up adding one more serving of pork belly and ate until I was absolutely stuffed 🥹 This is the portion from the extra serving I ordered midway through! ![One extra serving of fresh pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-17-5ptad-900.webp) ## ₩2,000 anchovy-broth doenjang-jjigae I feel like something is missing when I eat meat without soup, so I ordered the anchovy-broth doenjang-jjigae (soybean-paste stew). It was only ₩2,000, yet it came in a full earthenware pot—I was so surprised. ![Anchovy-broth doenjang-jjigae in an earthenware pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-18-1isw7-900.webp) It was generously packed with anchovies, mushrooms, radish, scallions, tofu, and chili peppers, making the broth incredibly refreshing with a pleasant spicy kick. After a rich bite of pork belly, one spoonful of this doenjang-jjigae broth completely resets your palate. This is an essential side order that you absolutely have to get! ![Pork belly and doenjang-jjigae table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-19-1ihc7-900.webp) ## A meal where aged kimchi and doenjang stew worked beautifully After looking around Shinsegae, the combination of cast-iron-lid fresh pork belly and spicy doenjang stew on an empty stomach was just perfection. ![Cast-iron-lid fresh pork belly meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-20-1rsxp-900.webp) The meat quality was excellent to begin with, and the generous, homemade-tasting side dishes and aged kimchi went wonderfully with it, so I’d recommend it to anyone looking for great pork belly. Next time, I definitely want to try their other popular dishes: kimchi-jjigae and gyeran-mari (Korean rolled omelet)! ![Jeonju House table setting at the end of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house-21-nwlso-900.webp) ## Where it is - Jeonju House (전주하우스) - 36 Oncheon-ro 101beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, South Korea - 대전광역시 유성구 온천로101번길 36 1층 - 36.3560968, 127.3495608 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%84%EC%A3%BC%ED%95%98%EC%9A%B0%EC%8A%A4/@36.3560968,127.3495608,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@daejeon-steel-tray/yuseong-sotttukkeong-samgyeopsal-jeonju-house/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
