We shared Couple Set B with abalone cream risotto, pizza, and pasta, and appreciated the baby tableware. A lovely pick for a leisurely brunch with children. ## Good to know - **Address**: 37 Suwan-ro 106beon-gil, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, South Korea (전남광주통합특별시 광산구 수완로106번길 37 1층) - **Seating**: Tables for 2, 4, and 6, plus bar seating - **For children**: High chairs and baby tableware available - **Parking**: Street parking in the alley in front is relatively convenient - **Couple Set B**: Salad, pasta or rice, pizza, and two drinks *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* It had been ages since I’d had brunch, so my hubby, our little guy, and I headed out to Bueokgan Suwan Branch (부엌간 수완점) in Suwan District. Right beside Sumun 1 Park, it’s a nice spot for both a meal and a park stroll. That day, we set out a delicious Italian-style spread in this pretty space and enjoyed a relaxed brunch together. ![Brunch meal with green views](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-01-1la9w-966.webp) ![Bueokgan brunch meal in Suwan District](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-02-er50r-966.webp) ## Bueokgan Suwan Branch: the basics ![Bueokgan Suwan Branch basic information](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-03-109mc-966.webp) ![Bueokgan Suwan Branch restaurant information](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-04-qxn5t-966.webp) It’s a little removed from Suwan District’s busy dining alley, so parking in the alley in front of the restaurant is relatively easy. ## An interior welcomed by green views Set beside Sumun 1 Park, Bueokgan Suwan Branch reminded me of a little European restaurant from its exterior alone, with its large awning and brickwork. ![Brick exterior with a large awning](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-05-6q7vc-966.webp) There was a waiting table outside, and once inside, the wood furniture, pretty lighting, and charming little decorations created a calm atmosphere. ![Restaurant interior with wood furniture](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-06-1q28s-966.webp) ![Interior with lighting and decorative details](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-07-1uef8-966.webp) ![Restaurant space with a calm atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-08-eoj3m-966.webp) What stayed with me most of all were the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. The lush trees outside made it feel as though nature was close by, even indoors. ![Floor-to-ceiling window overlooking park trees](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-09-1nnco-966.webp) ![Indoor view of green trees](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-10-2fn35-966.webp) ![Green view beyond the large windows](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-11-1h2d8-966.webp) There were tables for two, four, and six, along with bar seating. They also had a place to hang coats and high chairs ready to go. ![Dining area with a variety of tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-12-nuael-966.webp) ![Restaurant seating with a high chair](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-13-xxf6e-966.webp) When we said there would be three of us including a child, they showed us to our table and brought baby tableware too. Such a welcome bit of consideration for us visiting with a little one. ## Already bustling before noon We arrived just before 12, but the restaurant was already bustling with diners. Orders are placed at the table, and there was a notice saying food might take a while because of backed-up orders. ![Table-ordering information](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-14-1te52-966.webp) We decided to wait leisurely, but the food was served faster than expected. Couple Set B includes a salad, a pasta or rice dish, a pizza, and two drinks. ![Couple Set B menu selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-15-i83s9-966.webp) We chose the garden salad, shrimp rosé pasta, basil Margherita pizza, iced batch brew coffee, and lemonade, then added the abalone cream risotto. It was a great selection for the three of us to share several dishes. ## Garden salad to wake up the appetite The drinks and garden salad arrived first. Fresh greens and tomatoes were topped with Parmesan cheese and served with a tangy dressing. The crisp vegetables and bright dressing freshened up my palate whenever I had some between bites of pasta and pizza. The iced batch brew had its own fragrant aroma and acidity, which went beautifully with the Italian-style food. ## Basil Margherita pizza our little guy loved Next up was the basil Margherita pizza. ![Basil Margherita pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-16-vc2ly-966.webp) ![Pizza topped with cheese and arugula](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-17-qdndw-966.webp) This wood-fired Margherita pizza came topped with cheese, basil sauce, and arugula. The nutty crust, soft cheese, and basil’s distinctive fragrance worked so well together. ![Margherita pizza with a clean-tasting crust](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-18-10iog-966.webp) More than anything, our little guy absolutely loved it—perhaps because the crust was savory and clean-tasting. When dining out with a child, what the adults enjoy matters too, but having at least one dish the child eats well makes mealtime so much more relaxing. This pizza really did the job that day. ## Abalone cream risotto full of nutty flavor One bite of the abalone cream risotto we added to the order, and its nutty flavor spread all through my mouth. ![Abalone cream risotto](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-19-wekac-966.webp) ![Risotto topped with fried enoki mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-20-11m41-966.webp) It was creamy while still carrying abalone’s distinctive flavor, and it even reminded me a little of abalone miyeokguk (seaweed soup). The fried enoki mushrooms on top of the risotto were a special treat. ![Golden-fried enoki mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-21-k2rup-966.webp) As we ate the golden-fried enoki mushrooms, they somehow tasted a little like squid, which my hubby and I both found fascinating. The contrast between the soft risotto and chewy mushrooms was quietly fun too. ## Silky rosé cream and chewy fresh pasta While we were eating the pizza, the shrimp rosé pasta arrived. ![Shrimp rosé pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-22-1wko3-966.webp) ![Fresh rosé pasta with shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-23-1gg05-966.webp) The shrimp rosé pasta had plump shrimp, and its rosé sauce leaned more toward smooth cream than tomato. I especially liked the pleasantly chewy texture of the fresh pasta. The sauce coated the noodles softly, so every twirled forkful had a creamy richness. The shrimp were nicely plump too, and it was a mild, easy dish to share with a child. ![Brunch spread with pizza, pasta, and risotto](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan-24-1q07b-1200.webp) From the salad to the pizza, pasta, and risotto, the three of us happily cleared our whole brunch spread. I was especially pleased that our little guy ate the pizza and pasta so well. With green views and a relaxed setting for a meal, it’s a lovely place to try for a family brunch with children or an easygoing meal out. On a day when you want delicious pasta and pizza in Suwan District along with a slightly slower meal, enjoy a warm bite at Bueokgan Suwan Branch :) ## Where it is - Bueokgan Suwan Branch (부엌간 수완점) - 37 Suwan-ro 106beon-gil, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, South Korea (전남광주통합특별시 광산구 수완로106번길 37 1층) - 전남광주통합특별시 광산구 수완로106번길 37 1층 - 35.1940376, 126.8322486 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B6%80%EC%97%8C%EA%B0%84%20%EC%88%98%EC%99%84%EC%A0%90/@35.1940376,126.8322486,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-soup-spoon/suwan-kids-brunch-bueokgan/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
