We got lucky and didn't wait long, but a lot of people wait a full hour (seriously, join the remote queue on your way there). I used to think, a sundae-guk place with a wait?? But after eating, I totally get it. ![Menu board for sundae-guk at Paldam Sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-05-ea7qc-900.webp) ## Menu and what two people should order There's clear sundae-guk and spicy sundae-guk + (add ₩5,000 for the omakase set!! Today's omakase sundae was cheongyang chili, blood sundae, and ginseng sundae) ![Sign describing today's omakase sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-06-li3z2-900.webp) We got two spicy sundae-guk plus one omakase set added on (the portion is just right for two people). ## The unlimited organ meat self-serve bar ![Unlimited refill organ meat self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-07-cxb89-900.webp) ![Heart, liver, lungs and other organ meats laid out at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-08-6viu9-900.webp) Organ meat is unlimited refill! Rice is unlimited refill too!!! Isn't that crazy? My husband refilled the organ meat and ate his sundae-guk until he was truly, truly full!!!! (The staff were so kind, they kept telling us in case we didn't know — "the organ meat is unlimited, help yourselves!" haha haha. They had osogiramtu, heart, windpipe, liver, lungs — everything!) ![Neatly maintained side dish self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-09-1dyex-900.webp) The side dish bar is kept spotlessly clean. The cubed radish kimchi was really good too, so I kept going back for more. ![Tray with rice and cubed radish kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-10-19w32-900.webp) Rice refills are free too, but the sundae-guk portion is already huge + unlimited organ meat, so there was barely time to eat rice...? ## Spicy sundae-guk and Chef Lee Won-il's special dadegi ![Bubbling spicy sundae-guk](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-11-11d3e-900.webp) Sundae-guk simmered for 14 hours with pork and beef bones, bubbling away + the dadegi (chili seasoning) in the spicy version is apparently Chef Lee Won-il's own special blend!!!!!! It's quite spicy, and even though I'm a spice wimp, it wasn't a sharp, jumpy heat but a deep heat, so I kept sipping and enjoying it happily!!!!! (I don't like artificial, overly aggressive spice, but the heat here is deep, and I loved that!!1) ![Meat-packed ingredients inside the spicy sundae-guk](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-12-1alnu-900.webp) Even with the 4 pieces of sundae set aside separately, just a light stir with chopsticks reveals how much meat is in there!!!!!! The default meat amount was more than enough for me, so I left some... my husband scooped more from the organ meat bar (having a self-serve bar is truly, truly the best for guys, I think). ## Sundae omakase set for 5,000 won extra ![Sundae omakase set with suyuk and three types of sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-13-3mkf0-900.webp) The sundae omakase that comes with the ₩5,000 add-on! The suyuk (boiled sliced pork) alone was so good I'm planning to order it as a separate dish next time!! They said it's cooked sous vide, and yes, it's incredibly moist and tender. My personal favorite was the ginseng sundae — the subtle ginseng flavor was amazing!! I enjoyed the rest with chogochujang (vinegared chili paste) and salted shrimp too. ![Cheongyang chili, blood sundae, and ginseng sundae with chogochujang and salted shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-14-1ld50-1200.webp) The sundae omakase lets you try a variety of sundae, so I definitely recommend ordering it together! (If you have leftovers, dip them in the sundae-guk — also delicious!!!!) For two people, I'd recommend one sundae-guk each plus one omakase set :) ![Plate of organ meat brought from the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-15-15v7r-900.webp) ![Sundae-guk with extra organ meat added in](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar-16-o97qa-900.webp) Grab extra organ meat from the self-serve bar and drop it right in ~ the value here is honestly insane, right? lol A sundae-guk place this good AND great value?!!!!!! I tried a few pieces myself, and there was zero funky smell, so it was good even plain with just a dip of salt, no need to add it to the soup???? The quality of the meat clearly looks great too! ## Is Paldam Sundae in Gimpo worth the wait? - 🍚Best taste + value sundae-guk I've had in a while :) - 🍚I was curious why people wait an hour for sundae-guk — after eating it, I get it?!! - 🍚For two people, recommend one sundae-guk each + one sundae omakase :) - 🍚The unlimited organ meat self-serve bar is genuinely next-level!!! ## Where it is - Paldam Sundae Gimpo Main Branch (팔담순대 김포본점) - 5 Ungok-ro, Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (1st floor) - 경기도 김포시 운곡로 5 1층 - 37.6505825, 126.6586065 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%8C%94%EB%8B%B4%EC%88%9C%EB%8C%80%20%EA%B9%80%ED%8F%AC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.6505825,126.6586065,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@evening-rice-bowl/gimpo-spicy-sundae-guk-offal-bar/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
