It's well known as a top kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) spot in Anjung, so I went in with high expectations. ![Exterior and interior of Songdam Kalguksu in Anjung, Pyeongtaek](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-01-12ynj-1200.webp) *Exterior and interior photos* ## Location and atmosphere at Songdam Kalguksu If you go straight in from Suksudae on the left, you'll find Songdam Kalguksu. The place marked "Songdamjeong" is Songdam Kalguksu. The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating, so it's great for group gatherings too. The tables are spaced quite far apart, and even with a lot of customers, it never felt loud or chaotic thanks to the size of the place. ## Menu board — hot pot kalguksu and weekday shabu-shabu ![Songdam Kalguksu's hot pot kalguksu and shabu-shabu menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-02-xe7vn-966.webp) *Menu board* The signature menu includes hot pot kalguksu dishes: fresh clam hot pot kalguksu, beef hot pot kalguksu, vegetable hot pot kalguksu, and meatball dumpling hot pot kalguksu. There's also a shabu-shabu menu available on weekdays only — fresh clam shabu-shabu, beef shabu-shabu, and octopus shabu-shabu, all of which include kalguksu noodles. They also serve red bean kalguksu, red bean ongsimi (rice dumpling soup), and kongguksu (cold soybean noodle soup). There's a wide range of add-ons too, like extra clams, meat, or octopus. ### Today's order - Beef shabu-shabu — ₩11,000 - Extra beef — ₩7,000 ![Songdam Kalguksu's spacious dining hall and seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-03-2ef9n-966.webp) ![A table inside Songdam Kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-04-1eh61-966.webp) ![Songdam Kalguksu's self-serve corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-05-fwqvi-966.webp) At the self-serve corner, you can help yourself to extra kimchi, garlic, cheongyang chili peppers, and broth. ![Self-serve corner with kimchi, garlic, and cheongyang chili peppers](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-06-1gu06-966.webp) You order through the table order system, and every dish comes with barley rice and corn bread included.

The savory, spicy smell hit my nose right away. The crunchy yeolmu kimchi paired really well with the spicy gochujang — a nice light bite before diving into the shabu-shabu. ### Starting with vegetables in the sanghwang mushroom broth I put the vegetables into the homemade sanghwang mushroom broth first and let it boil. There was a great variety — mushrooms, napa cabbage, bok choy, and white wood ear mushrooms. Once it had boiled for a while, I added the beef, along with the meatball dumplings. ![Beef and meatball dumplings being cooked in the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-17-sjubi-966.webp) ![Pot of beef shabu-shabu boiling](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-18-gtfwi-966.webp) Once the meat was cooked, I ate it together with the vegetables. There wasn't a hint of gamey smell, and the broth was so clean and delicious. The beef was tender and delicious, and it paired really well when dipped in the sauce. ![Dipping cooked beef into sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-19-ylm8w-966.webp) The meatball dumplings were packed full inside, and they were great dipped in the sauce as a side. ![Cross-section of a meatball dumpling packed full inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-20-1edj8-966.webp) The beef was so good that we added more. We put in extra meat and kept eating! ![Adding extra beef to the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-21-dqj67-m-966.webp) ### Finishing with handmade chive kalguksu We finished off with the handmade chive kalguksu noodles. They really lived up to being handmade — so chewy. Adding the noodles to the beef-infused broth made for a rich, satisfying finish. ![Chive kalguksu noodles boiled in the rich broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-22-jpzd6-966.webp) ![Kalguksu noodles lifted out of the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-23-7p625-966.webp) Just so you know, they also sell puffed rice snacks, yeot (Korean taffy), corn bread, and kongguksu broth separately if you want to buy some to take home! ![Corner selling puffed rice snacks, yeot, and corn bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu/pyeongtaek-anjung-beef-shabu-kalguksu-24-1hicq-966.webp) To finish, you can even have a coffee.
