Over a couple's night out, Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao served yang kkochi (lamb skewers) with yuxiang eggplant, tomato egg soup and a free bean sprout stir-fry the owner sent to every table, and the auto-rotating grill meant no one had to watch the meat mid-conversation. With a roomy free basement parking lot in the building, it is an easy pick for a drive-in date or group dinner in Unjeong. ## Good to know - **Address**: Unit 205, 2nd floor, World Tower 3, 573 Chaekhyanggi-ro, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Hours**: Daily 16:00–02:00 - **Closed**: 2nd and 4th Monday of each month - **Parking**: Free in the building's basement parking lot - **What we ordered**: Yang kkochi (lamb skewers), yuxiang eggplant, tomato egg soup - **On the house**: Bean sprout stir-fry the owner sent to every table *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* Today I want to tell you about a night out with my husband — cold beer and golden, crispy lamb skewers at Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao, a Chinese restaurant in Unjeong, Paju that we hadn't visited in a while. ![Visiting Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao in Unjeong, Paju](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-01-11mjx-1200.webp) ![Area around the entrance of Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-02-kpnyj-900.webp) ![Signage for the lamb skewer restaurant on the 2nd floor of World Tower 3](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-03-it81g-m-900.webp) ![Vertical shot of the Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao storefront](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-04-180uh-900.webp) ## Is parking easy at Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao? Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao gives you free access to the basement parking lot of World Tower 3 at 573 Chaekhyanggi-ro. I usually avoid places where parking is a hassle, but the basement here was so spacious that there was zero stress from the moment we arrived. If you're driving in, you can relax and not worry about parking at all. ![Path from the building's basement parking lot to the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-05-xa57g-900.webp) ![Seating inside Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-06-1t000-900.webp) ![Interior with tables and grills set up](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-07-19vcz-900.webp) ![Full view of the dining hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-08-1tb7i-900.webp) ![Seating and walkway inside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-09-7mdih-900.webp) ![Table set before ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-10-1qi9q-900.webp) ## Grilling and flavor of the lamb skewers We sat down and ordered the main event: yang kkochi. The moment the meat arrived, its bright red color stood out, and as soon as the skewers hit the charcoal, a delicious smell started drifting up. ![Plate of raw, bright red lamb skewers](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-11-1fdj3-900.webp) ![Lamb skewers placed on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-12-2s8av-900.webp) ![Lamb skewers cooking on the auto-rotating grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-13-wru0a-900.webp) ![Close-up of lamb skewers as they cook](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-14-vsrot-900.webp) ![Lamb skewers turning golden brown](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-15-1gmyd-900.webp) What I loved most is the auto-rotating grill that flips the skewers on its own — so convenient! At most meat places my husband holds the tongs the whole time worrying about burning something, which makes it hard to actually talk. But since everything just turned by itself, he didn't have to think about the meat at all. That meant we could sip beer and finally catch up on things we hadn't had a chance to talk about, all while eating comfortably. ![A glass of beer alongside the lamb skewers](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-16-19e5k-900.webp) ![Fully cooked lamb skewers plated](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-17-1184o-900.webp) ![View of the rotating grill and table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-18-bqopb-900.webp) ![Close-up cross-section of grilled lamb skewer meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-19-c2vzc-900.webp) ![A hand holding a lamb skewer](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-20-1ndvb-900.webp) ![Dipping a lamb skewer into cumin seasoning](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-21-iiflp-900.webp) When I finally bit into a fully cooked skewer, there was absolutely none of that gamey lamb smell — just clean, mild flavor! The meat was tender rather than chewy, so it kept going in bite after bite. The table came loaded with cumin and various other spices and sauces, so it was fun mixing and matching to taste. ![Cumin and spices set out on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-22-kxxca-900.webp) ![A plate of seasonings mixed to taste](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-23-67653-900.webp) ## Yuxiang eggplant and tomato egg soup It felt like a waste to eat only skewers, so we ordered a couple of side dishes too — and honestly, I'd say you have to try these. The yuxiang eggplant (fried eggplant coated in a tangy, sweet, spicy yuxiang sauce) was crispy outside and moist inside, an unbeatable drinking snack. Even people who aren't big eggplant fans would fall for this one. ![A plate of yuxiang eggplant coated in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup-24-1ha4g-900.webp) We also ordered the tomato egg soup, and the fluffy egg combined with the deep umami of the tomato made for a warm, soothing, perfect little dish! Sipping it between bites of lamb skewer really refreshed the palate. ## Free bean sprout stir-fry sent to every table While we were deep into our meal, the owner sent a bean sprout stir-fry around to every table in the restaurant. I honestly didn't expect much from a freebie, but one bite in and my husband and I both looked at each other wide-eyed. The crunchy bean sprouts carried a subtle charcoal smokiness — it's not even on the menu, but it was so good that I found myself thinking, 'I'd pay for this separately without hesitation.' The owner's generosity and thoughtfulness made the whole meal that much more enjoyable. Chatting comfortably with my husband over odor-free, delicious lamb skewers and a glass of Qingdao made for a truly satisfying day. If you're looking for a date or gathering spot near Paju or Unjeong, I'd highly recommend this place! ## Store info - Address: 573 Chaekhyanggi-ro, World Tower 3, 2nd floor, unit 205, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - Hours: Daily 16:00–02:00 (Closed 2nd and 4th Monday of each month) - Parking: Free in the building's basement parking lot ## Where it is - Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao (산내마을양꼬치앤칭따오) - 573 Chaekhyanggi-ro, World Tower 3, 2nd floor, unit 205, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 파주시 책향기로 573 월드타워3 2층 205호 - 37.7277936, 126.7343815 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%B0%EB%82%B4%EB%A7%88%EC%9D%84%EC%96%91%EA%BC%AC%EC%B9%98%EC%95%A4%EC%B9%AD%EB%94%B0%EC%98%A4/@37.7277936,126.7343815,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-window-table/paju-lamb-skewers-eggplant-tomato-egg-soup/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
