Arriving right at opening, the writer tried the 2-person Set No. 1 (pork cutlet + charcoal-grilled octopus rice bowl + 2 fried shrimp) and the grandma-style udon, finding the thick cutlet, smoky octopus rice, and anchovy-broth udon all satisfying. The place fills up fast at lunchtime, so getting there early is key. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Last order**: 20:20 - **Parking**: Building basement parking, up to 1.5 hours free with meal - **Location**: 2nd floor of Jeil Pungyeongchae Centum (above Starbucks Uijeongbu Millak Town branch) - **Ordering**: QR code at each table - **Amenities**: Baby chairs available, aprons provided, self-serve bar (side dishes, broth) - **Order**: 2-person Set No. 1 (Yangchonri pork cutlet + charcoal-grilled octopus rice bowl + 2 fried shrimp), grandma udon *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* ![Table spread of pork cutlet at Yangchonri Donkaseu Millak Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-01-uzyn9-1200.webp) Yangchonri Donkaseu is an authentic Western-style pork cutlet (donkaseu) restaurant that started in 1986 in Muan, Miryang, Gyeongnam, founded by grandmother Oh Sun-ja. Her youngest son carried on the tradition, and now her granddaughter has taken over — making it a third-generation business.

The clean interior and bright lighting gave off a vibe that promised good food too. We did an open-run — arriving right at opening — and although delivery riders came and went a lot, we were the first dine-in customers. I'd heard Yangchonri Donkaseu Millak Branch is a lunch hotspot in Millak, Uijeongbu, and sure enough, the moment lunchtime hit, the place filled up with customers fast.

The sauce was smooth and flavorful, with a fruity note that kept it from feeling greasy — really tasty. ![Charcoal-grilled octopus rice bowl packed with octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-17-tg2ah-900.webp) ### Charcoal-grilled octopus rice bowl This is a single serving of the charcoal-grilled octopus (jujukmi) rice bowl, and it came packed with octopus. ![Close-up of the octopus rice bowl before mixing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-18-1kwli-900.webp) ![Mixed spicy octopus rice bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-19-1rft2-840.webp) Mixing it all together, my mouth was filled with smoky char flavor and spiciness, haha. The octopus was plump and the vegetables were stir-fried just the right amount, giving it a great texture. Adding in the bean sprouts, which help balance out the spiciness, gave it a whole different kind of satisfaction. ![Spoonful of octopus rice bowl topped with bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-20-1g0si-900.webp) ### Grandma udon The moment the grandma udon arrived at the table, a rich anchovy broth aroma wafted up. ![Bowl of grandma udon in anchovy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-21-1d2aq-900.webp) ![Grandma udon broth topped with crown daisy](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-22-2dmp2-900.webp) ![Chewy udon noodles lifted with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-23-1ixfq-900.webp) The anchovy broth paired with crown daisy (ssukgat) made for a refreshing soup 🫢 The noodles were nice and chewy too — completely my style. ![Two pieces of fried shrimp included in the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set-24-1jtel-900.webp) ### 2 fried shrimp The fried shrimp included in the 2-person Set No. 1 seemed like a premade item, but it was crispy and nutty-tasting — enjoyed it 🦐 ## Where it is - Yangchonri Donkaseu Millak Branch (양촌리돈가스 민락점) - 196 Omok-ro, 2nd floor Unit 2-020, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 의정부시 오목로 196 2층 2-020호 - 37.7443948, 127.0987045 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%96%91%EC%B4%8C%EB%A6%AC%EB%8F%88%EA%B0%80%EC%8A%A4%20%EB%AF%BC%EB%9D%BD%EC%A0%90/@37.7443948,127.0987045,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-order-rounds/yangchonri-donkatsu-minrak-udon-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
