It seemed really nice to take photos with friends or a date before going in, while you're still looking put together! The lighting and interior are stylishly done up, giving off exactly that bright, kitschy vibe! ![Interior and lighting inside Ho Samchon Yeongdeungpo Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-07-1f9bv-650.webp) ## Private rooms and group tables: does Ho Samchon work for a company dinner? Inside Ho Samchon Yeongdeungpo Main Branch there's a private room for confidential chats, plus several tables suited for groups. The interior is clean and pretty inside too! It's also a great spot for a company dinner. They were also running a Naver receipt review event — leave a review and you get marble ice cream!! Can't resist marble ice cream haha ![Ho Samchon Yeongdeungpo Main Branch menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-08-1v6yp-650.webp) ![Ho Samchon soup menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-09-ivsm5-650.webp) ![Ho Samchon chicken menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-10-84ud0-650.webp) ![Ho Samchon pasta menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-11-te1xo-650.webp) ![Ho Samchon side dish menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-12-1ji92-650.webp) ![Ho Samchon drinks menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-13-ewdsf-650.webp) ## What we ordered: cream jjamppong, BBQ chicken and jjagyechi Ho Samchon Yeongdeungpo Main Branch's menu has plenty of options that work great as a first-round meal! With soups like the cream jjamppong alongside chicken, pasta and more, it's nice being able to try a bunch of different things! We really agonized over what to order before finally settling on cream jjamppong, BBQ chicken, and jjagyechi! ![Chicken crackers served as a basic side snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-14-v8xz9-650.webp) The basic side snack is chicken crackers, and these are seriously addictive! You just keep eating them, no shame — total human kibble haha ### Beef brisket cream jjamppong Cream jjamppong (creamy seafood noodle soup) came out first! As you can see, it's piled high with bean sprouts, sitting on top of a rich, creamy broth — once the sprouts on top settle down, it's ready to eat! ![Cream jjamppong topped with bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-15-tobae-650.webp) ![The creamy broth of cream jjamppong simmering](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-16-1bssi-650.webp) Personally, I found it even tastier once the broth reduced a bit and the flavor got richer!! ![Blue crab and shrimp in the cream jjamppong](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-17-kro5v-650.webp) ![Udon noodles soaked in the creamy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-18-beemu-650.webp) Inside there was a variety of things — blue crab, udon noodles, shrimp, beef brisket, and more!! So the seafood flavor really came through and made the broth even better! The udon noodles soaking up all that creamy broth are absolutely the best part...! ### Jjagyechi (jjapaguri with cheese and egg) Next up, jjagyechi (jjapaguri topped with cheese and egg)! The cheese and egg come out separately on the side, so you can first take a bite of the plain jjapaguri!! Whoever came up with this really knew what they were doing,, ![Jjagyechi served with cheese and egg on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-19-17our-650.webp) ![Jjagyechi mixed with cheddar cheese and egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-20-iftqc-650.webp) Then once you mix it all together with the egg and cheese, the rich cheddar cheese flavor blends with the egg's mildness for an even tastier bite haha ### BBQ chicken with fried wheat rice cakes Last up was the BBQ chicken! It comes with long fried flour rice cakes, coated in the chicken sauce like oil tteokbokki — really tasty!! ![BBQ chicken served with fried flour rice cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-21-104km-650.webp) ![BBQ chicken topped with cheongyang chili](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-22-2mll2-650.webp) And the chicken is delicious plain, but topping each piece with a cheongyang chili adds a spicy kick that cuts right through the richness — you've got to try it this way!! ![A full spread of Ho Samchon's dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi/hosamchun-yeongdeungpo-bbq-chicken-jjagyechi-23-1fkmc-650.webp) ## Is Ho Samchon a good spot for a date in Yeongdeungpo?
