## In short

Choburi Kimchi Jjigae Gojan Main Branch is a kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew) restaurant near 25-Hour Water Plaza in Gojan-dong, Ansan, Gyeonggi. For lunch we ordered the 3-person jjigae set and buckwheat kimchi jeonbyeong (rolled kimchi pancake), which filled the table with golden gardenia stone-pot rice, a perilla oil fried egg and ramyeon noodles, plus unlimited rice refills at the self-serve bar. Dessert ice cream and fabric spray and hair ties by the door made Choburi an easy, generous lunch.

## Storefront and dining room at Choburi Kimchi Jjigae

Choburi's interior design really catches the eye haha.

![View around the roadside public parking line in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-02-2aknh-966.webp)

Parking was tough, so I parked right out front along the roadside public parking line before heading in.

![Restaurant interior with floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceiling](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-03-1lfr9-966.webp)

Once inside, the lighting, the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the high ceiling gave it a really airy feel.

![Spaced-out table layout at the kimchi jjigae restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-04-14tvi-966.webp)

The place is spacious with plenty of room between tables, so it looked great for eating alone without feeling self-conscious, and just as good with a group!

![Self-serve bar corner set up on one side of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-05-196f4-966.webp)

### Free rice refills at the self-serve bar

There's a self-serve bar set up along one side.

![Basic side dishes neatly arranged at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-06-t32gk-966.webp)

![Rice cooker at the self-serve bar with unlimited refills](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-07-17w5x-966.webp)

![Side dish containers and tongs at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-08-17ni5-966.webp)

Of course the basic side dishes are neatly arranged, but on top of that you can refill rice for free. Usually at jjigae places you have to pay extra for a rice refill... such a good deal, ugh.

![Framed art and interior decor on the restaurant wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-09-u7kjw-966.webp)

The framed art on the wall matched the space so well haha. It had that upscale-jjigae-restaurant vibe that anyone would enjoy being brought to.

## Menu prices and what the sets include

![Tablet kiosk menu screen at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-10-ltnbp-966.webp)

![Kimchi jjigae set menu composition guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-11-17319-966.webp)

![Menu board including a 1-person set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-12-1is7q-966.webp)

Each table has a tablet kiosk, so ordering is easy. As a kimchi jjigae specialty restaurant, kimchi jjigae is naturally the main dish, and ordering a set gets you a perilla oil fried egg, ramyeon noodles, and one soft drink included, which felt like great value haha. There's even a 1-person set, so it looked like a solid option for solo diners too.

## Ordering the 3-person jjigae set and buckwheat kimchi jeonbyeong

![3-person kimchi jjigae set with fresh Korean pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-13-1he4t-1200.webp)

Ta-da! Out came the kimchi jjigae generously loaded with chunks of grade-1 fresh Korean pork haha. The broth was pretty thick, almost like jjaglee (reduced stew) style, right? If you reserve through Naver, they give you a free side of vitamin-rich silver ear mushroom, so keep that in mind!

![A plate of buckwheat kimchi jeonbyeong side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-14-qcloz-966.webp)

This is the buckwheat kimchi jeonbyeong (kimchi pancake roll) I ordered as a side.

Crispy on the outside and spicy on the inside — the kind of flavor that kept me reaching for more haha.

![Perilla oil fried egg included in the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-16-u5gd4-966.webp)

The perilla oil fried egg was included in the set, and the perilla oil aroma was truly so nutty... the best...!

![A full table spread with kimchi jjigae and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-17-cfszc-966.webp)

Once everything I ordered arrived, the table was completely packed!!

![Close-up of the simmering kimchi jjigae pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-18-1aohy-966.webp)

![Golden gardenia-colored stone-pot rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-19-1k6vi-966.webp)

### Golden gardenia stone-pot rice and the sungnyung finish

The stone-pot rice also comes out — isn't that golden gardenia yellow color so pretty, ugh? Since it's freshly cooked right after you order, the rice had this glossy, sticky sheen.

![Sungnyung made by pouring water into the stone pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-20-zzb37-966.webp)

They pour water in to make sungnyung (scorched rice tea) for you lol.

Stone-pot rice paired with jjigae... that's love, ugh! The tofu was also cut into big chunky pieces that looked really appetizing.

![Perilla oil fried egg wrapped in roasted seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-22-t14su-966.webp)

My companion popped the yolk, wrapped it in roasted seaweed, and dipped it in seasoned soy sauce, saying it was so good... we even refilled the seaweed.

### Dessert ice cream, fabric spray and hair ties by the door

After eating, on the way out they had dessert ice cream ready to go? There was coffee too, but I went with the ice cream to round out the full course haha.

![Dessert ice cream corner enjoyed after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-23-7ukgb-966.webp)

![Fabric spray and hand cream set out at the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set/gojan-dong-kimchi-stew-lunch-set-24-q0mfs-966.webp)

Walking out full, I was impressed all over again by the thoughtful touches... fabric spray, hair ties, stain remover, even hand cream were all set out for guests.

## Is Choburi Kimchi Jjigae in Gojan-dong worth a lunch visit?

> From the heartfelt Korean pork kimchi jjigae to the golden gardenia stone-pot rice, self-serve bar, and dessert — a perfect kimchi jjigae experience in Gojan-dong.

This is a place in Ansan's Gojan-dong that I consider the real deal for kimchi jjigae, and I've been back a few times. The atmosphere is great and the food quality is solid too, so the friends I've brought along have always been happy, which is why I keep going back haha. They say they use 100% domestic kimchi, grade-1 fresh Korean pork, and only vegetable-based broth, which builds a lot of trust. Mixing the gardenia stone-pot rice with the meat-loaded kimchi jjigae was delicious and filling. The unlimited rice refills at the self-serve corner were great too, and having dessert ice cream and coffee on the way out made for a genuinely great lunch. If you're eating lunch in Gojan-dong, dining solo, or want a hearty meal with soup, this is a definite must-revisit kimchi jjigae spot!!
