The writer ordered the sake-don (salmon rice bowl) set meal and added a Korean pork (Handon) sirloin cutlet and three pieces of aged flounder sushi: the salmon was thick with no fishy taste, and the cutlet was crisp outside and juicy inside, served with cabbage in fruit sauce. Ordered as a set meal, it also comes with egg porridge, tempura and clear soup, making it a generous lunch near Hwajeong Station. ## Good to know - **Location**: 37 Hwasin-ro 260beon-gil, Deogyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do; 2nd floor across from Hwajeong E-mart - **Hours**: Daily 11:00 AM – 9:00 PM - **Break time**: 3:00 PM – 4:50 PM - **Last order**: 2:30 PM and 8:30 PM - **Parking**: E-mart parking, 1 hour covered (extra fee beyond that) - **What was ordered**: Sake-don (salmon rice bowl) set meal, Korean pork sirloin cutlet, aged flounder sushi (3 pcs), zero-sugar cola - **Payment**: Order by QR code, pay on the way out; Goyang Pay and government support funds accepted - **Facilities**: Groups welcome, takeout, delivery, reservations, Wi-Fi, separate men's and women's restrooms, waiting area, paid corkage - **Price reference**: ₩1,000 ≈ $0.7 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* ![Representative photo of the sake-don set meal spread at Min Cook Dasima](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-01-1bzxh-1200.webp) Apple Cookie here ~ 🍎🍪 I had somewhere to be today, and since it's been a while since I ate out, I went looking for a Hwajeong restaurant and found this place. It's a Japanese restaurant that's held its spot in Hwajeong for a whopping 25 years. It's even got the "Hundred-Year Store" title. Hwajeong Station restaurant, Hwajeong lunch spot: Min Cook Dasima (민쿡다시마) 37 Hwasin-ro 260beon-gil, Deogyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. *Group seating available, takeout, delivery, reservations, Wi-Fi, separate men's/women's restrooms, waitlist available, corkage fee applies, parking. Daily 11:00 AM – 9:00 PM / Break time 3:00 PM – 4:50 PM / Last order 2:30 PM and 8:30 PM. ## Where is Min Cook Dasima, and where do you park? ![Exterior of Min Cook Dasima on the 2nd floor of a building across from Hwajeong E-mart](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-02-1dt4b-900.webp) Min Cook Dasima is located across from the Hwajeong E-mart, and you can see the shop on the 2nd floor. Since the 1st and 2nd floor shops have similar names, I guess it's the same owner! ![Building entrance with parking information for Min Cook Dasima](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-03-8zu1e-900.webp) If you park at E-mart, you get 1 hour supported. We were 1 minute over... and paid an extra ₩1,000 fee🥲 ![A phrase about pride in ingredients posted at the 2nd floor entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-04-16yo2-900.webp) ![Entrance sign listing the three rice principles](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-05-1qoge-900.webp) ![Entrance sign noting only 100 servings of sushi are made per day](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-06-c53ct-900.webp) ![Information sign at the 2nd floor entrance of Min Cook Dasima](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-07-v97ms-900.webp) At the 2nd floor entrance, there are phrases that make you feel their pride in taste and ingredients. There are three rice principles too, and apparently they only make sushi for 100 servings a day. ![Sign noting acceptance of Goyang Pay and government subsidies](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-08-1ubth-900.webp) ![Blue Ribbon award marker at the restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-09-4ig21-m-900.webp) Goyang Pay and government subsidies are accepted too. It's a restaurant that received the Blue Ribbon award in 2024 and 2025. Seems like there's a waitlist sometimes. I got in right away, lucky me 👍 ## Inside Min Cook Dasima: seating and how to order by QR code ![Spacious hall seating at Min Cook Dasima](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-10-cgdmk-900.webp) ![Interior with 2-person tables and large group tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-11-5x8iq-900.webp) The restaurant was bigger than I expected? They have everything from 2-person tables to large group tables, so it seems great for couples, friends, or families to visit😆 ![Small plates and forks by the self-serve bar near the window decor](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-12-lgcrc-900.webp) At the self-serve bar you can grab whatever you need — small plates, forks, and so on. Isn't the view outside so pretty?! The little decor pieces were so cute I had to take a photo💜 ![QR code ordering instructions on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-13-12eof-900.webp) You can check the menu by scanning a QR code. You order through this and pay when you leave — a post-payment system. There were a lot of menu items, but looking at it via QR made it convenient. ## What we ordered: salmon bowl set meal, Korean pork cutlet and flounder sushi - Sake-don set meal - Korean pork sirloin cutlet - Aged flounder sushi (3 pcs) - Zero-sugar cola As an appetizer, egg porridge. It kept going down with a savory oil smell! It's been a while since I had this, and it was delicious😍 ![Table setting with sake-don set meal and pork cutlet together](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-14-adar5-900.webp) Oh, I was surprised by how good the quality was!! The cutlet quality was really good too 👍 I really made the right call ordering the set meal, hahaha ### The sake-don salmon bowl: thick slices with no fishy taste ![Sake-don topped with thickly sliced salmon](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-15-ovd0n-900.webp) They cut the salmon into big chunks, and it had zero fishy taste — the more you chewed, the more savory it got 👍 the salmon quality was high. ![Close-up of thick raw salmon slices](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-16-1p4yn-900.webp) ![Egg pudding served alongside the sake-don](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-17-rqa2f-900.webp) Can you see how thick the salmon is?! There was also an egg pudding? That was soft too and just slid right down, hahaha ### Korean pork (Handon) sirloin cutlet and three pieces of aged flounder sushi ![Crispy fried Korean pork sirloin cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-18-dj0ur-900.webp) Crispy outside, juicy inside, no pork smell at all, it was delicious. It paired perfectly with the sauce too 👍 ![Three pieces of aged flounder sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-19-1xppm-900.webp) ![Close-up of the flounder sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-20-ndu8q-900.webp) The sushi tastes different from other places. It's definitely free of that fishy taste and has a savory depth. The quality was clearly different 😆 ### The set meal sides: cabbage in fruit sauce, clear soup and tempura ![Cabbage salad topped with fruit sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-21-17vg3-900.webp) ![A bowl of savory miso-style soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-22-12ziy-900.webp) They put fruit sauce on top of the cabbage and this was genuinely delicious 👍 It didn't taste like a store-bought sauce. I honestly wanted to ask for the recipe, hahaha. The soup was savory and hit the spot too😍 ![Assorted tempura with sweet pumpkin and shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-23-1qj6e-900.webp) ![Close-up of crispy tempura batter](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set-24-84fvk-900.webp) The tempura had sweet pumpkin, shrimp, and okra? I think. The batter outside was extremely crispy, so the texture was great 👍 I think it tasted even better because it was warm, hahaha ## Where it is - Min Cook Dasima (화정맛집민쿡다시마) - 37 Hwasin-ro 260beon-gil, Deogyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 고양시 덕양구 화신로260번길 37 - 37.6325316, 126.832759 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%99%94%EC%A0%95%EB%A7%9B%EC%A7%91%EB%AF%BC%EC%BF%A1%EB%8B%A4%EC%8B%9C%EB%A7%88/@37.6325316,126.832759,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-lakeside-spoon/hwajeong-station-minkook-dashima-sakedon-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
