I tried dried pollack hangover soup with pot rice and abalone jjamppong sundubu while looking out at Ulsanbawi. Verdict: a hearty Sokcho breakfast with a memorable mountain view. ## Good to know - **Address**: 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Sokcho, Gangwon, South Korea (강원특별자치도 속초시 원암학사평길 114) - **Hours**: 07:00–20:00 - **Break time**: 15:30–17:00 - **Parking**: Parking attendants available - **Seating**: Table seating; a room near the entrance for guests with pets - **Pet policy**: Leash and carrier required - **Menu**: Chodang sundubu, three-color tofu hot pot, abalone jjamppong sundubu, dried pollack hangover soup, squid sundae, sirloin tofu steak *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* ## Yetgoeul Sundubu for breakfast in Sokcho Morning on the way down to Sokcho! Near Hanwha Resort Seorak Sorano, in the Haksapyeong Kongkkot Maeul Sundubu Village, we decided to have a hearty breakfast at Yetgoeul Sundubu, an original sundubu (soft tofu) restaurant that makes its own tofu fresh every morning. It opens from 7 a.m., so it is a great spot for anyone looking for a good breakfast in Sokcho. Maybe because this tofu restaurant uses deep seawater from the East Sea, the savory depth was so good; the three-color tofu made with beet and green tea juice was special in both color and flavor. Above all, the meal dishes came with pot rice, and it was so delicious. > Yetgoeul Sundubu · 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Sokcho, Gangwon · 07:00–20:00 (break time 15:30–17:00) ![Yetgoeul Sundubu store information](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-01-18xmg-900.webp) ![Yetgoeul Sundubu store information](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-02-742b0-900.webp) ![Yetgoeul Sundubu store information](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-03-29ldr-900.webp) ## At the entrance to Haksapyeong Sundubu Village, with a spacious interior Yetgoeul Sundubu sits at the entrance to Haksapyeong Sundubu Village. There was someone to guide us with parking too, so we parked comfortably and headed in~! This restaurant makes tofu from Korean soybeans every morning, and there were even piles of soybeans right by the entrance, haha. ![Entrance to the tofu restaurant made with Korean soybeans](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-04-1od6s-900.webp) ![Entrance to the tofu restaurant made with Korean soybeans](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-05-1op8l-900.webp) The interior was really spacious. It was all table seating, with plenty of space between tables, so it was comfortable for a meal. ![Spacious table seating with wide gaps](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-06-133b2-900.webp) ![Spacious table seating with wide gaps](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-07-zrjrh-900.webp) ## Ulsanbawi views and information for pets and children Once seated, the view of Ulsanbawi was just lovely. The floor-to-ceiling windows made me feel completely like I was on a trip as we waited for our food. ![Ulsanbawi view through floor-to-ceiling windows](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-08-1wlwm-900.webp) ![Ulsanbawi view through floor-to-ceiling windows](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-09-19vlo-900.webp) Guests dining with dogs could eat in a room near the entrance. A leash and carrier are required for pets, so keep that in mind. ![Room near the entrance for diners with pets](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-10-fxong-900.webp) ![Room near the entrance for diners with pets](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-11-1rijl-900.webp) High chairs were available, and there were plenty of menu items that children would enjoy, so this would be a nice place to visit on a family trip. ![High chairs and family dining area](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-12-jkfu6-900.webp) ![High chairs and family dining area](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-13-v46ge-900.webp) ## Dried pollack hangover soup and abalone jjamppong sundubu There was a wide range of dishes, including Chodang sundubu, three-color tofu hot pot, abalone jjamppong sundubu, dried pollack hangover soup, squid sundae, and sirloin tofu steak. Since the basic side dishes included two pieces of tofu, we decided to try the dried pollack hangover soup and abalone jjamppong sundubu. ![Dried pollack hangover soup and abalone jjamppong sundubu menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-14-nhwkv-900.webp) A full Korean table loaded with side dishes! Korean food really is the best when you want a healthy, generous meal~! ![A generous Korean table of side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-15-1ql1k-900.webp) ![A generous Korean table of side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-16-iiego-900.webp) The basic side dishes included golden pan-fried beet tofu and white tofu, salted seafood, jeon (savory pan-fried pancakes), pickled chili peppers, gungchae (pickled aster stems), seasoned dried pollack, mushrooms, and bujigaengi greens. Tofu is generally made by adding a coagulant to set the protein, but on the East Coast, seawater was used as the coagulant. The gently seasoned tofu was nutty and pleasantly salty—so, so delicious. Sokcho tofu is the best~! ![Beet tofu and white tofu side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-17-iw7ba-900.webp) ![Beet tofu and white tofu side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-18-1eei1-900.webp) Extra side dishes could be taken from the refrigerator, which was convenient and nice. ![Extra side dishes available from the refrigerator](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-19-34v9i-900.webp) ### Dried pollack hangover soup with pot rice The dried pollack hangover soup came with rice cooked in a traditional pot. The fluffy white rice was amazing even topped with just the side dishes. ![Dried pollack hangover soup with pot rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-20-j0hr2-900.webp) It also had delicious sliced tofu, which made it even better. The plump, golden dried pollack was nutty and cut into easy-to-eat pieces; having this hangover soup simmered with bean sprouts, radish, and dried pollack felt so soothing. ![Hangover soup with tofu and dried pollack](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-21-sep5v-900.webp) ![Hangover soup with tofu and dried pollack](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap-22-15ebh-500.webp) ### Abalone jjamppong sundubu, easy even for mild-spice eaters The jjamppong sundubu, generously filled with abalone, octopus, shrimp, and squid, was said to be a little spicier than Shin Ramyun. I asked for the Cheongyang chili peppers on the side, and it was just the right pleasantly spicy level for someone who cannot handle much heat. Another delicious Korean set meal for breakfast in Sokcho! ## Where it is - Yetgoeul Sundubu (옛고을순두부) - 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Sokcho, Gangwon, South Korea (강원특별자치도 속초시 원암학사평길 114) - 강원특별자치도 속초시 원암학사평길 114 - 38.2062824, 128.5204966 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%9B%EA%B3%A0%EC%9D%84%EC%88%9C%EB%91%90%EB%B6%80/@38.2062824,128.5204966,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gangwon-market-mornings/sokcho-hwangtae-sundubu-sotbap/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
