Just so you know! ### Self-serve corner: banchan and roasted rice water The self-serve corner had basic banchan (side dishes), roasted rice water, and regular water ready to grab haha. The roasted rice water was really nutty and nice to drink warm ⸜( *ˊᵕˋ* )⸝ ## Spicy pork neck pot rice 10,900 won vs gyudon pot rice 9,900 won ![Spicy pork neck pot rice and gyudon pot rice served together](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-15-1b7gi-900.webp) And soon the dishes I ordered arrived 😍 My spicy pork neck pot rice and gyudon pot rice!!!! 🤍 FYI, Dongyang Sotbap serves seaweed soup as the default base soup haha. Having a hot soup on hand really helps the rice go down (*´꒳`*) The basic banchan were seasoned squid, stir-fried nuts, and pickles, which paired nicely with the pot rice! And if you run out, you can grab more from the self-serve corner 👍 The visuals on the spicy pork neck pot rice were amazing... the subtle spicy aroma made my mouth water... Next up, the gyudon pot rice!!!! With a poached egg on top, it looked so delicious... with gyudon and chopped scallions sprinkled on, mixing in the poached egg would surely make it taste like honey 🤗 ![Close-up of gyudon pot rice topped with poached egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-16-iforh-900.webp) Being a pot rice dish, of course it couldn't be bad, and the visuals were a total pass too!! Being able to enjoy pot rice with this kind of visual for under or just over ₩10,000 feels almost unfair... Dongyang Sotbap, a great-value pot rice spot perfect for solo dining 😍 ![Gyudon pot rice mixed together](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-17-1m571-900.webp) ![Spicy pork neck pot rice packed with meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-18-5zw1a-900.webp) ![A spoonful of pot rice lifted up](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-19-s7q41-900.webp) This was my first time trying the gyudon pot rice, and with the poached egg on top, the combination of rich egg flavor and the well-seasoned gyudon was really good — I wanted to eat it again 😆 It's an approachable, tasty pot rice that anyone can enjoy, no wonder it's a bestseller haha. The spicy pork neck pot rice is something I've been ordering for a long time — it's a bit spicier than Shin Ramyun, so I wouldn't recommend it to those who can't handle spice! But if you love spicy food, you'll really love this. The pork neck is also packed in generously, so there's still meat left even after you finish all the rice 😋 Honestly it's so much my style that I've lost count of how many times I've ordered the spicy pork neck pot rice haha. It's a stress-relieving flavor, highly recommend ![Seaweed soup served as the base soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-20-zpnat-900.webp) Sipping the seaweed soup between bites of rice is heavenly 😘 ## Side dishes: Dongyang pork cutlet 5,900 won and honey kkwabaro 4,900 won And the sides we ordered — pork cutlet and kkulkkwobarrow (sweet fried pork)!!😊 Both looked super crispy, great visuals... 🥰 And the portions matched the price perfectly, just the right amount to enjoy alongside the rice haha ![Dongyang pork cutlet and kkulkkwobarrow side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-21-iwm5h-900.webp) You know eating these between bites of rice hits different... ![Crispy pork cutlet dipped in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-22-yci2c-900.webp) ![Cross-section of the sweet kkulkkwobarrow](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-23-6veu6-900.webp) The pork cutlet sauce was rich and the breading crispy, a good portion for 2-3 people to share, and the kkulkkwobarrow was sweeter than I expected with barely any sourness haha. Crispy outside, tender inside, so tasty... all the side dishes were a hit too!!😍 As a Korean food lover, it was hard to find a good-value pot rice place suitable for solo dining, but ever since Dongyang Sotbap opened, I've been visiting really often haha. From the sides to the mains, nothing has disappointed — guaranteed good food!! ![Full table spread of pot rice and sides at Dongyang Sotbap Ansan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon-24-tona0-1200.webp) Great for solo dining or group gatherings, Ansan's pot rice spot "Dongyang Sotbap" — I really recommend it 😋 ## Where it is - Dongyang Sotbap Ansan Main Branch (동양솥밥 안산본점) - 11 Yesuldaehak-ro, 202-203, Dangwon-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 안산시 단원구 예술대학로 11 202, 203호 - 37.3180434, 126.8366291 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%8F%99%EC%96%91%EC%86%A5%EB%B0%A5%20%EC%95%88%EC%82%B0%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.3180434,126.8366291,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-back-skillet/ansan-dongyang-sotbap-spicy-pork-gyudon/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
