What stole my heart was the Goheung raw garlic bossam. I'm a total garlic lover, so of course I had to go eat it again. ## Right in the middle of the Cheomdan food alley — the vibe inside ![Exterior of Kkankkanhan Jokbal Main Branch in the Cheomdan food alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-02-1w764-900.webp) Kkankkanhan Jokbal Main Branch sits right in the center of the Cheomdan food alley!! ![Interior of the restaurant busy with Friday evening customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-03-152sx-900.webp) ![Interior view showing the spacious hall seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-04-1j9ck-900.webp) Since it was a Friday evening there were quite a lot of people. Even so, the place is spacious enough that it never felt noisy! haha ![Hall with a large screen set in the middle](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-05-1f351-900.webp) ![Seating area with the big screen showing a KBO broadcast](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-06-vwbai-m-900.webp) ### Watching KBO on the big screen The biggest draw of Kkankkanhan Jokbal Main Branch is that you can watch KBO baseball on a huge screen~! The screen sits right in the middle of the store, so it's visible no matter where you sit — love that. ![Basic side dishes set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-07-1eeq6-900.webp) ![Doenjang soup bubbling on the burner](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-08-or98h-900.webp) ![Side dishes with sweet potato makgeolli](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-09-om0hp-900.webp) ## The basic side dishes and refillable doenjang soup The side dishes come out looking like this. (We ordered the sweet potato makgeolli ourselves... haha, makgeolli lover here.) Every single time I come, that doenjang soup (soybean paste soup) is just so, so good! Boil it up bubbling hot and it's basically its own drinking snack... In between bites of bossam, a spoonful of that warm broth totally resets your stomach. Ask and they'll refill it for you! ![Moist steamed egg served as a basic side](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-10-1ll4g-900.webp) You also get a moist steamed egg as a basic side. ![Table full of Goheung raw garlic bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-11-bdsg0-900.webp) ## Extra-large Goheung raw garlic bossam — still as good the second time? Finally, the Goheung raw garlic bossam I'd been waiting and waiting for... The visuals are seriously insane, right?; Since this was a revisit, my expectations were even higher, and I was so impatient to eat it I could barely finish taking photos..;; ![A piece of bossam pork topped with raw garlic](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-12-1gfpv-900.webp) One bite in and — yep, it's exactly as good as I remembered. Honestly the best bossam (boiled pork wrap) I've ever had in my life. The clean, moist meat plus the sharp, fragrant raw garlic cuts through any greasiness perfectly — just the best!!!!!!! If you love garlic, I strongly, strongly recommend this. ![Close-up of the Goheung raw garlic bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-13-1q2b1-900.webp) Eating it again somehow made it taste even better... I'd say I'm about 98237492834% likely to come back... guess I'll just keep coming every time my cooldown resets... haha ![Full table spread of the extra-large bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-14-6ft5o-900.webp) ![Plate of bossam piled generously with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-15-21e5u-900.webp) ### How much is the extra-large portion, really? We eat a lot, so haha, we ordered the extra-large size. The portion was massive — honestly a bit much — but we somehow managed to finish it all. haha I'm a garlic lover, so I piled the sauce on generously. I'd say adjust the amount of sauce to your own taste. ![Bossam with a piece of sweet cabbage kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-16-1eyex-900.webp) One piece of bossam... one bite of sweet cabbage kimchi... absolute perfection...♥ If you're looking for a Cheomdan pub, I highly recommend the Goheung raw garlic bossam plus makgeolli combo! ## Even the bathroom and waiting area are thoughtfully done ![Bathroom amenities showing thoughtful care for customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-17-1o5zj-900.webp) And here's another reason Kkankkanhan Jokbal Main Branch is great... it's not just the food — you can feel the care for customers all over the place. Toilet seat covers, even?... that kind of thoughtfulness... so meticulous!! ![Ice cream set out in the waiting area](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-18-72k6z-900.webp) Ice cream you can scoop yourself in the waiting area!! We had it for dessert, and the Oreo flavor is genuinely delicious. ![Arcade games set up in the waiting area](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-19-1iss5-900.webp) ![View of the waiting area](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-20-ssyi7-900.webp) There are arcade games too, so waiting won't be boring, right? haha Families visiting with kids can probably pass the waiting time a little more easily too. ![Store signage written in Jeolla-do dialect](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-21-tw748-900.webp) Haha, the Jeolla-do dialect signage... I think these little details are part of Kkankkanhan Jokbal's cute charm. haha ![Poster announcing the Naver review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam-22-8ztm1-900.webp) Also, they're running a Naver review event right now, so don't forget to join in! ## Wrapping up the revisit A great restaurant is satisfying enough when just the food is good, but when the waiting area and even the bathroom are made this comfortable, the whole experience feels even better. 😊 Most of all, I was so happy that the dish I loved so much on my first visit tasted just as amazing this time around! If you're looking for a place among Cheomdan pubs to enjoy good drinking snacks and a comfortable drink, this could be a great choice!!! For anyone hunting for a great bossam restaurant in Gwangju, or a Cheomdan pub, meal spot, or family restaurant, I highly recommend it. Definitely try the Goheung raw garlic bossam!!!!! ## Where it is - Kkankkanhan Jokbal Main Branch (깐깐한족발 본점) - 46 Cheomdanjungang-ro 116beon-gil, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, South Korea (886-3 Wolgye-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju) - 전남광주통합특별시 광산구 첨단중앙로116번길 46 깐깐한족발 - 35.2157097, 126.8452659 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B9%90%EA%B9%90%ED%95%9C%EC%A1%B1%EB%B0%9C%20%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@35.2157097,126.8452659,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-kitchen-queue/kkankkanhan-jokbal-goheung-garlic-bossam/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
