Before meeting my friend, I stopped by for Chinese food for lunch! I'd heard there was a Chinese restaurant with a European vibe, so I came to check it out. > Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch ## Where is Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch, and is there parking? ![Exterior of Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch on the Dalmaji-gil hill](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-02-149bl-900.webp) Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch sits on the hill of Haeundae's Dalmaji-gil. There are 2 parking spots beside the restaurant. My navigation directed me around the back of the building, and I was going 'where is it, where is it' before finding the lot, haha. Look for a building that looks like this and you'll be in the right place, ha-ha. ![Area around the building entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-03-7lf6y-900.webp) ![Sign directing to the 1st-floor Chinese restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-04-19glb-900.webp) ## Chinese restaurant on the 1st floor, European restaurant on the 2nd Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch's Chinese restaurant is on the 1st floor! The 2nd floor is a European restaurant — must be under the same Bueokgan brand family. I went up to the 2nd floor, sat at a table, looked at the menu, and went 'wait, this isn't it' and had to come back down, lol lol. The Chinese restaurant is on the 1st floor, everyone! ![Seating on the 1st floor of Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-05-1um03-900.webp) ![Overview of the dining hall with 2- and 4-person tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-06-17ym3-900.webp) ![Interior of the Chinese restaurant with a European-style feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-07-kg2lx-900.webp) ![Table setting and window seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-08-1d3x4-900.webp) ## Bueokgan's seating and menu prices There's quite a lot of seating inside Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch!

Lettuce, cream shrimp, jalapeños, and shaved coconut chips on top.

Raw shredded onion is added on top to cut the richness. It's also topped with green onion. ![A plate of whole garlic yuringi](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-14-7loo1-900.webp) ![Yuringi topped with red and green chili](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-15-1fov5-900.webp) ## Whole garlic yuringi, 26,000 won Whole garlic yuringi (₩26,000) is yuringi topped with whole garlic, red chili, and green chili. The yuringi is made with chicken thigh meat. The tangy yuringi sauce plus the whole garlic made it less rich. ![Table spread with all three dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-16-bc35c-900.webp) ![Table setting with cream shrimp and eoyanggaji side by side](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-17-1yqt0-900.webp) ![Cross-section of cream shrimp held with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-18-4dmhp-900.webp) ![Cross-section of fried eggplant](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-19-v0a6r-900.webp) Haha my friend held it up so I could photograph the cross-section of the shrimp. I also snapped a cross-section of the fried eggplant. ![Cross-section of chicken thigh yuringi](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-20-1i747-900.webp) This is the cross-section of the yuringi. Since it's chicken thigh meat, it wasn't dry at all. ![Untouched bowl of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes-21-188ry-900.webp) We ordered a bowl of rice but were too full to even touch it, ha. ## Is a three-dish lunch at Bueokgan worth it? - A Chinese restaurant with a European-style sensibility - Parking is available for 2 cars in front of the restaurant - Located on the 1st floor of the building - Has jjajangmyeon, jjamppong and other full meal options, so it seems good for solo dining - Spacious interior seating, so it seems good for group gatherings too - The jalapeño cream shrimp has coconut chips on top for a unique combination - The whole garlic yuringi has whole garlic pieces for an interesting texture ## Where it is - Bueokgan Chinese Haeundae Branch (부엌간 차이니즈 해운대점) - 200 Dalmaji-gil117beon-nagil, Haeundae-gu, Busan, South Korea, 1st floor - 부산광역시 해운대구 달맞이길117번나길 200 1층 - 35.1645652, 129.1838137 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B6%80%EC%97%8C%EA%B0%84%20%EC%B0%A8%EC%9D%B4%EB%8B%88%EC%A6%88%20%ED%95%B4%EC%9A%B4%EB%8C%80%EC%A0%90/@35.1645652,129.1838137,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@eatery-letters/buukgan-chinese-haeundae-lunch-three-dishes/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
