Sushi restaurant in Jung, Busan with a baby: Moshi Moshi

Where did we go for lunch with our baby?

Over the weekend, we went to Lotte Department Store Gwangbok with our baby and looked for somewhere to have lunch. With a baby in tow, I found myself checking not only the food but also whether there was a high chair and whether it would be easy to get around.

We visited Moshi Moshi Sushi Lotte Department Store Gwangbok (모시모시 스시 롯데백화점 광복점) on the 10th floor of the main building at Lotte Department Store Gwangbok. Its address is 2 Jungang-daero, Jung-gu, Busan, and we could use the department store parking lot. The hours listed in the original post were 10:30 AM–8:30 PM, but these may change according to the department store schedule, so it is worth checking if visiting late.

What did we order for two, and how much was it?

We ordered Set 2 as the main meal, then added shrimp tempura, kani miso, and Zero Coke. Here is what we ordered during our visit.

• Set 2 for two: ₩54,900
• Small shrimp tempura: ₩11,000
• Zero Coke: ₩2,000
• Kani miso: ₩2,000
• Total: ₩69,900

I liked that it was not just a sushi meal—we could share several dishes together.

How was the sushi and memil set for two?

Set 2 came with 16 pieces of sushi, chashu, and a noodle dish, and we chose memil (buckwheat noodles). Being able to pick one piece each from a range of sushi varieties kept it from feeling repetitive.

I usually enjoy sushi with warm udon, but that day I was more drawn to the cool memil. Having some memil after a few pieces of sushi made my mouth feel refreshed. With 16 pieces of sushi, it was also easy for the two of us to share.

Was it easy to get to for a meal while shopping?

It was in a convenient spot to stop by when we wanted Japanese food while shopping around Nampo-dong or Gwangbok-dong. We were already shopping inside the department store, so we only had to go up to the 10th floor, which made getting around with our baby easier.

How were the added shrimp tempura and kani miso?

We added the small size of shrimp tempura.

It came with five pieces for ₩11,000, and the small size was enough for the two of us to share.

Alternating between the crisp tempura, sushi, and memil kept the meal from leaning too much in one direction. If I wanted to add one more dish to the set, I thought shrimp tempura would be a good fit.

We also added kani miso for ₩2,000. Made with crab innards, it had a rich, savory flavor different from the sushi or tempura. It felt like an easy way to try one more menu item I had been curious about.

Including the Zero Coke, our total came to ₩69,900. With sushi, chashu, memil, and the additional dishes, it felt like a fairly substantial meal for two.

Were the high chair and facilities convenient to use?

For our family, the most convenient part was that a high chair was available.

It was much easier to have our baby seated in the high chair while we ate than to seat them on a regular chair and keep worrying about them. Since it was inside the department store, it was also convenient to use facilities such as the nursing room and restrooms, and we could take care of both shopping and our meal in the same building.

For this meal, I was happy with the combination of the sushi and memil set with shrimp tempura. Being able to eat after shopping with our baby without much extra moving around also suited us well.
