On an evening when the Joseon Moonlight Market (조선달빛장) was open, we browsed the Haenggung-dong trinket shops and stopped in for the steak pizza, which arrives with the steak and burrata cheese piled on separately, and the shrimp tomato pasta, with radish and carrot pickles to cut the richness. The European Haenggung Main Branch works well as a Haenggung-dong outing that combines a walk and a meal in one. ## Good to know - **Ordered**: Steak pizza, shrimp tomato pasta - **Served with**: Radish and carrot pickles - **Restaurant features**: Wood-fired pizza oven, firewood stacked out front, hanok-style interior with red curtains and chandeliers - **Location**: 1F, 21-1 Haenggung-ro, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do *as written by the visitor on Sep 14, 2026* ![Cover image of the visit to The European Haenggung Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-01-ft8py-900.webp) ![An outing photo of The European Haenggung Main Branch in Haenggung-dong, Suwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-02-dny1l-1200.webp) ## Where to eat in Haenggung-dong on Joseon Moonlight Market night Good season for a stroll, so I visited The European Haenggung Main Branch, a restaurant near Suwon Hwaseong, on a day the Joseon Moonlight Market was running. It's gotten nicely cool lately, so evenings are perfect for walking. On days like this, going out somewhere nearby to look around and eat something good beats staying home, hands down. This time I heard the Joseon Moonlight Market was on near Suwon Hwaseong, so I went for both reasons at once~~ The Haenggung-dong area is packed with cute little shops, plenty to look at, plus trendy restaurants where you can try something new — great for a date or a family outing. ![View of the Haenggung-dong alley during the Joseon Moonlight Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-03-b99h6-900.webp) ![Street of cute little trinket shops in Haenggung-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-04-15hju-900.webp) Every time I go to Haenggung-dong I notice the same thing — every alley is full of cute little sights~~ Lots of pretty shops for the younger crowd, and not too crowded on weekdays, so it's great for wandering. Walking around like that, your stomach empties out fast haha. As they say, even Geumgangsan is best seen after a meal, so eating was non-negotiable — but choosing what took some thought. Do I get something I always love, or try something totally new? That's the real question. Splitting the difference, I picked The European Haenggung Main Branch. ![View of the Joseon Moonlight Market night market near Suwon Hwaseong](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-05-jun1c-900.webp) ![Vertical photo of the trinket shops lined along the Joseon Moonlight Market street](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-06-fpb4s-m-900.webp) ![Evening scenery of the Joseon Moonlight Market outing](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-07-qj9xk-m-900.webp) First, a few shots of the Joseon Moonlight Market scenery near Suwon Hwaseong~~ Trinket shops lined up in front of the restaurant, so many things to look at that time just flies~~ Looked like there was a performance the next day too... a bit of a shame I missed that, but this alone was plenty to enjoy~~ ![Firewood for the wood-fired oven stacked in front of The European Haenggung Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-08-1ldq5-900.webp) ## Hanok with chandeliers: inside The European Haenggung Main Branch Out front of The European Haenggung Main Branch, a restaurant near Suwon Hwaseong, there's firewood stacked up everywhere~~ Makes sense, since it's a wood-fired pizza place~~ The front area and the interior further in have really different, distinctive vibes. ![Interior of The European Haenggung Main Branch blending hanok and European styles](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-09-1islg-900.webp) The charm is in how East and West come together... ![Store interior with red curtains and chandeliers](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-10-1nv9n-900.webp) ![Seating and lighting inside The European Haenggung Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-11-truwd-900.webp) A hanok-style space with red curtains and soft chandelier lighting felt distinctive~ Nice atmosphere, and the main menu is pizza and pasta. Perfect timing to sit down and eat comfortably after a long walk — glad I stepped in. ![Table setting with steak pizza and shrimp tomato pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-12-u47fh-900.webp) ![A whole wood-fired pizza topped with steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-13-1ld8p-900.webp) ## How did the steak pizza and shrimp tomato pasta taste? That day at The European Haenggung Main Branch I ordered steak pizza and shrimp tomato pasta, and honestly the presentation looked pretty unusual. The wood-fired pizza is baked plain, then the toppings go on separately — and the pasta felt similar, with seafood laid on top of the basic cooked pasta. A bit different from your typical pizza or pasta place. Starting with the pizza — a hearty look, with way more steak piled on than a typical pizza. One slice comes with meat too, so it's plenty filling on its own. Enjoying the burrata cheese's richness alongside the pizza almost made me feel like I was in Europe~~~ ![Thinly sliced radish and carrot pickles](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-14-16cwg-900.webp) Radish and carrot come thinly sliced as pickles~~ The sweet-and-sour combo of the two works like magic against the richness! ![Shrimp tomato pasta topped with shrimp and mussels](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-15-9cvml-900.webp) ![Seafood toppings on the tomato sauce pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-16-5527q-900.webp) ![Vertical photo showing the chunky shrimp in the pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-17-vmn9t-900.webp) A pasta loaded with seafood feels quite luxurious~~~ Enjoying the tomato sauce's tangy, deep flavor together with the shrimp~~ Mussels come in generous amounts too~~~ Vegetables mixed in add a distinctive touch~~ Big chunky shrimp give it a satisfying bite, and the tomato sauce's signature tanginess blends in without being overwhelming. ![A plate with a slice of pizza and pasta together](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-18-1h4u3-900.webp) ![A pizza slice topped with steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-19-vy34e-900.webp) ![Eating the pizza and pasta together](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-20-18imt-900.webp) After a few slices of pizza, things can start to feel a bit rich, right? That's when the tomato pasta and pickles come in for a refreshing reset! ![Table scene near the end of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-21-vsgan-900.webp) ![Vertical photo of the meal at The European Haenggung Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-22-22u8s-m-900.webp) ![Closing scenery from the Haenggung-dong outing](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market/suwon-haenggung-european-moonlight-market-23-kmwci-900.webp) ## Is The European worth it on a Haenggung-dong outing?
