Jeonju House is a Korean restaurant in Yuseong, Daejeon, serving galbi kimchi jjigae in a cauldron and pot rice. We added as much tofu as we liked from the self-service bar, then enjoyed a huge fluffy egg roll and sungnyung. Verdict: a filling pick when you want galbi kimchi stew with extra tofu.

## Jeonju House location, parking, and evening atmosphere

Whenever I ate at Oncheon Kalguksu, a popular spot in Yuseong, I kept noticing this galbi kimchi jjigae place across the street that I hadn't known about. I was always curious, and I finally went this time~!

🅿️ Jeonju House doesn't have its own parking lot, but they said you can park in the alley by the rear entrance or around Gyeryong Spatel~

The tables were divided between the two sides from the entrance, and even though it was before 7 p.m., the restaurant looked really busy..! Luckily, there was a table available 😮💨

## Ordering galbi kimchi jjigae and egg roll

We ordered two servings of cauldron galbi kimchi jjigae for ₩15,000 and an egg roll for ₩10,000 ✔️

They gave us individually packaged water! When we finished it and asked, they brought over a water pitcher~

![Packaged water and water pitcher](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-06-dgqjc-966.webp)

The basic sides were cabbage water kimchi, salad, seasoned cucumber pickles, mung bean sprout namul, and seasoned chives. Everything was good, but I really love water kimchi, so the tangy, nicely fermented cabbage water kimchi was especially delicious 🫶🏻

The bowls for the kimchi stew and rice looked like fancy tableware you'd use at home, so I took a photo haha

## Aged-kimchi galbi stew arrived five minutes after ordering

The restaurant was definitely busy, but the galbi kimchi jjigae and scorched-rice pot rice came out just five minutes after we ordered 🫶🏻

It had very well-aged kimchi in it, making the whole thing look even more exciting! ✨ We cut all the aged kimchi into bite-size pieces with scissors, then kept it simmering away so it would get even tastier~

### Take as much tofu as you want from the self-service bar

But then the owner said there was tofu at the self-service bar, so we could add as much as we wanted...!? At most other kimchi stew places, extra tofu is an add-on menu item, but at Jeonju House it was so nice to take however much we wanted from the self-service bar~🫶🏻

![Adding tofu from the self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-12-1om4m-966.webp)

Since we'd ordered egg roll too, we took what felt like a reasonable amount of tofu, added it in, and brought the stew back to a boil~😆

## Scorched-rice pot rice and a giant egg roll

Meanwhile, time to make sungnyung (scorched-rice tea) from the stone pot rice~

![Making sungnyung from stone-pot rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-15-dzrww-966.webp)

I opened the stone-pot rice lid and poured in hot water to make sungnyung, but it wasn't just plain water—it was tea, maybe Solomon's seal tea? Or barley tea?!!

![Tea water for sungnyung](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-16-182vl-966.webp)

Then, at just the right moment, our giant egg roll appeared...🍳 Such thoughtful service: ketchup came separately too, for people who love a plain, classic egg roll!! 🥫

![Large egg roll served with ketchup](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-17-1syj0-966.webp)

The egg roll was so huge that I wanted to compare it to my hand, but the comparison didn't quite work 😅 Still, I think it was honestly the biggest egg roll I've ever seen!

![Egg roll compared with a hand for size](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-18-mamul-966.webp)

One piece of egg roll was too big to fit in one bite! So soft and fluffy—absolute honeyed goodness 😋

We dipped it in ketchup too~ You already know the kimchi stew-and-egg-roll combination, right...? 👍🏻 Then we properly started on the kimchi stew with galbi. The ribs were chewy and clean-tasting—galbi really is the best!!

![Well-cooked galbi kimchi stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu/yuseong-galbi-kimchi-jjigae-tofu-20-y9ueu-966.webp)

The aged kimchi wasn't overly soft, and it was pleasantly tangy and perfectly fermented, so delicious~ Even though I wasn't hungry, kimchi stew and white rice are magic together 🧚

Even after finishing the rice and getting full, I just can't resist scorched rice~~🥹

We thoroughly enjoyed the scorched rice with kimchi stew, then finished up very full with the sungnyung~✌🏻

## Aged-kimchi jars and an evening wait

On the way out, I spotted earthenware jars in the yard. Could all of that be aged kimchi...? Maybe this is the secret behind a truly great restaurant...🔥

Lots of tables had galbi kimchi jjigae, but since it was the weekend, lots were also having fresh pork belly on a pot lid, you know? Judging from the color and smell of the meat, the pork belly must be delicious too... There was even a wait while we were eating, and it was so fascinating to see international visitors who had come for authentic Korean food too haha

I recommend the galbi kimchi jjigae at Jeonju House, a great Korean restaurant in Yuseong, Daejeon~
