That day I ordered the seasonal grilled fish set for two (₩40,000) and added Korean blue crab soy sauce marinade (₩12,500). The base set was already quite generous. According to the menu it included sotbap, six seasonal side dishes, salad, cabbage buckwheat pancake, a seasonal soup, and leafy greens, so I was excited from the start. ![Sign for the signature seasonal grilled fish set](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-07-ivsog-966.webp) ![Menu board listing the set composition](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-08-7bfjs-966.webp) ### Banchan and self-bar After we sat down, salad, leafy greens, cabbage, ssamjang, and other neat side dishes were set out one by one — nothing overly strong-flavored, just comforting like home cooking 😊 There was japchae (glass noodle stir-fry), various kimchi, and namul (seasoned vegetables), all great for whetting the appetite before the grilled fish arrived. ![Neat table setting with leafy greens and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-09-duk36-966.webp) ![Japchae and other seasonal side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-10-1a4io-966.webp) You could grab more of any side dish you liked from the self-bar, which made it even more satisfying. The savory cabbage doenjang soup was especially good — mild and clean, tasting like something a grandmother in the countryside would make. The salad bar was also very clean and well maintained. ![Clean, well-maintained banchan self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-11-w4t13-966.webp) And here's a fun detail — the food arrived via a serving robot! More and more restaurants are using this system these days, and it's clean, convenient, and a point that kids especially love haha ![Serving robot delivering food](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-12-rsbid-966.webp) ### Cabbage buckwheat pancake This cabbage buckwheat pancake was a surprisingly nice specialty 🤎 Thin and soft, not heavy at all, and dipped in the sauce it tasted clean yet savory — a nice light bite before the main dish arrived. ![Thin cabbage buckwheat pancake with dipping sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-13-elt4z-966.webp) ## How was the Korean blue crab soy sauce marinade? The Korean blue crab soy sauce marinade I added was also delicious. ![Added Korean blue crab soy sauce marinade](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-14-p73tw-966.webp) The crab meat was soft and plentiful, and the soy sauce wasn't too salty but had a rich savoriness — a real rice thief 😎 ![Close-up of crab meat-filled soy sauce crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-15-5s2ys-966.webp) My son, a soy sauce crab killer, kept his hands busy the whole time hahaha ![Child's hands eating the soy sauce crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-16-14brf-966.webp) ### Sotbap The sotbap (hot-pot rice) was also great. ![Freshly served sotbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-17-y5sxd-966.webp) It had that glossy, warm quality of freshly cooked rice, with grains that were fluffy but held just enough stickiness — it paired really well with the grilled fish. ![Fluffy sotbap scooped out](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-18-170x9-m-966.webp) ## The main event: seasonal grilled fish Finally, the star of the meal — seasonal grilled fish! ![Golden-brown seasonal grilled fish spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-19-1reqg-966.webp) You could tell at a glance the fish was fresh — the outside was nicely browned while the inside stayed moist, cooked just right. ![Plate of flaked fish meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-20-jfw47-966.webp) My husband carefully picked out the meat for us. A generous portion of seasonal grilled fish that never seemed to run out no matter how much we ate 😋 ![Generous portion of grilled fish on a plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-21-1ec7i-966.webp) Soft, nutty, moist 😌 Even after we were full, we kept reaching for more. ![White fish flesh with distinct layered texture](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-22-1x9ts-966.webp) Once you flake it apart, you can see the flesh is white with tight, distinct layers — not dry at all, really tender. The seasoning wasn't overly salty either, so you could really taste the fish itself, which was exactly my style 😊 ![Homemade sikhye served at the end of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce-23-o7w8u-966.webp) ## Why this is a great place to take your parents We finished the meal with refreshing homemade sikhye (sweet rice punch). Overall, I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a good restaurant in Seongsa-dong, or a satisfying, well-put-together Korean lunch near Hwajeong Station. What I loved most was being able to properly enjoy grilled fish as the main dish, along with such a generous spread of side dishes. If you enjoy a clean, well-arranged Korean meal, Min Cook Apbadang Seongsa is worth a visit ☺️ It seems especially satisfying for a family outing or a meal with your parents 💛 Oh, and if you visit with your parents, they'll pack you seasoned crab to take home for free 🦀 ## Where it is - Min Cook Apbadang Seongsa (제철생선구이 민쿡앞바당 성사) - 60-1 1F, Heungdo-ro 415beon-gil, Deogyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 고양시 덕양구 흥도로415번길 60-1 1층 - 37.6398847, 126.8480076 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EC%B2%A0%EC%83%9D%EC%84%A0%EA%B5%AC%EC%9D%B4%20%EB%AF%BC%EC%BF%A1%EC%95%9E%EB%B0%94%EB%8B%B9%20%EC%84%B1%EC%82%AC/@37.6398847,126.8480076,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-rice-bowl/minkook-apbadang-seongsa-crab-soy-sauce/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
