Hi everyone! I'm a food blogger always on the hunt for a good meal. 😊 Some days you just crave something warm and hearty but still easy on the stomach, instead of anything too spicy or heavy. ^^ This time I visited Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang, which is known for serving proper seafood nurungji-tang (scorched rice soup) in Pyeongtaek.

What really caught my eye was the moment the soup started bubbling away in a 300-degree stone pot. The abalone emperor nurungji-tang I had let me taste the refreshing seafood flavor and the nutty, toasty flavor of the scorched rice all at once, which made it a great dish to share with my parents.

## Where is Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang, and is there parking?

Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang is located at 160 Bijeon 4-ro, Building B, 1st Floor, in Pyeongtaek. The exterior gave off a welcoming vibe that felt comfortable for families to visit. Even before choosing what to order, I was already a little excited wondering what kind of nurungji-tang would come out.

![Parking area in front of Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-02-1ms1f-900.webp)

The first thing I noticed as soon as I arrived was that parking wouldn't be a worry! There's a spacious parking area here, which made it easy to visit by car. If you're looking for a family dining spot in Pyeongtaek, this kind of detail turns out to matter a lot.

If you're searching for a lunch spot in Pyeongtaek that works for a family visit, it's worth checking the parking situation too. So I'd say this is worth considering for anyone looking for a family outing spot along Manse-ro for lunch as well.

## Inside Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang: private rooms for family gatherings

![Main hall seating inside Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-04-1skn8-m-900.webp)

![Room-style seating good for family gatherings](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-05-1ixcn-900.webp)

Once inside, the space felt more spacious than I expected. What stood out most was that there's room seating available. It seemed like a good spot for family gatherings, birthday meals, dining out with parents, or even work dinners and group meetups. When a lot of people gather, an enclosed private space is often more comfortable than an open one.

When eating with parents, conversations tend to drift from the food to all kinds of family stories, so being able to sit comfortably and take your time felt like a real plus. They say the menu is designed with three generations in mind, and honestly the food itself seemed like the kind that wouldn't split opinions much. If you're looking for a family gathering spot among Bijeon-dong restaurants, this kind of room seating could be a pretty appealing point.

For a restaurant that mainly serves seafood, hygiene and cleanliness matter, and this place gave off a sense of care in that regard. They say they use top-grade seafood and focus on hygiene management, which raised my expectations for the food itself. As someone eating there, these basics quietly matter a lot. ^^

## What comes with the abalone emperor nurungji-tang for two?

![Menu board at Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-06-1w7ac-900.webp)

![Menu listing showing the abalone emperor nurungji-tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-07-fnkl6-900.webp)

What I ordered this time was the abalone emperor nurungji-tang for two! With 'emperor' right there in the name, I expected something hearty, and once the dish arrived I understood why it was named that.

The seafood nurungji-tang includes abalone, shrimp, webfoot octopus, squid, and conch, all simmered in a broth made from a variety of vegetables and meat over a long time. And here's the key point — it uses 100% jumbo-size abalone from Wando. As someone who loves abalone, my expectations were already through the roof at this point. Hahaha.

This isn't just scorched rice with a bit of seafood on top — the broth itself carries deep flavor, and the dish brings out both the refreshing taste of seafood and the toasty flavor of the glutinous rice nurungji, making it feel like a satisfying meal. When you're looking for lunch in Pyeongtaek, sometimes something too heavy or too spicy feels like a lot, but eating too lightly feels unsatisfying too. This kind of nurungji-tang hits that middle ground perfectly.

![Side dishes served with the nurungji-tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-09-lpjrs-900.webp)

![Neatly plated side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-10-x4d5k-900.webp)

### The side dishes: mild, not spicy or salty

Since the main dish is nurungji-tang, the side dishes felt designed to complement it cleanly without overpowering the main flavor. Since the seafood nurungji-tang itself is all about the broth, seafood, and scorched rice coming together, side dishes that are too intense could easily overshadow the main dish.

![Close-up of the side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-11-7udb2-900.webp)

![Mild, non-spicy side dish spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-12-vu9kc-900.webp)

![Table set with side dishes and chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-13-yz2bl-900.webp)

So actually I liked this style. Take a spoonful of nurungji-tang, follow it with a bite of a side dish, then another spoonful of broth. Before you know it, going slow like this, the bowl empties out. Hahaha.

## The 300-degree stone pot performance at the table

And finally, the abalone emperor nurungji-tang arrives! If I had to pick the most memorable moment at Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang, it would be the 300-degree stone pot performance. As the food goes into the piping-hot stone pot, it bubbles up instantly, and seeing it happen right in front of me made it look far more appetizing than I expected. 🔥

![Seafood nurungji-tang bubbling in a 300-degree stone pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-14-fp9qu-966.webp)

Through the hot steam rising off the stone pot, the seafood comes into view as the broth boils, and the toasty scent of the scorched rice spreads out. That moment was almost too good to spend just taking photos. Hahaha. The bubbling sound plus the toasty nurungji aroma plus the visual of the seafood — all three hitting at once really brought my appetite roaring back.

There was also something fun about watching the scorched rice turn softer and richer as it met the broth inside the hot stone pot. I guess that's why they say you eat food first with your eyes, then with your nose, and finally with your mouth. You can practically feel the heat just from the photos, right? In person, the rising steam and the bubbling sound add to the effect and really stir up your appetite. Watching the crispy scorched rice soften as it met the warm broth was especially fun to see.

## How the seafood nurungji-tang tastes: clean broth, toasty glutinous rice

Even with all the seafood in it, there wasn't a strong fishy smell — instead, the clean, refreshing flavor typical of seafood came through first. Layered with the depth of a long-simmered broth, it felt quite different from a simple clear seafood soup.

But the biggest shift comes once the nurungji is in the mix. After the refreshing seafood flavor, the nutty, toasty taste of the scorched rice follows, and the combination worked really well together. The refreshing seafood broth and the toasty glutinous rice nurungji turned out to be a better pairing than I expected.

![Nurungji-tang filled with shrimp, squid, and other seafood](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang/pyeongtaek-bijeon-dong-abalone-nurungji-tang-16-1xpcr-900.webp)

### Abalone, shrimp, webfoot octopus, squid and conch: the texture of each

Eating each type of seafood one by one was fun too. The shrimp had a nice springy bite. The webfoot octopus and squid stayed tender even after simmering in the broth for a while, without turning rubbery, and I could still enjoy their distinct texture. The conch added a nice chewiness on top of that.

What's great about this kind of seafood nurungji-tang is that each spoonful brings something a little different. Hahaha. One spoonful comes up mostly nurungji, the next brings shrimp or squid, and another scoops up broth along with vegetables.

And with the jumbo-size abalone in there, it had a real presence just visually. Taking a bite, the abalone had a chewy yet springy texture, and eating it together with the seafood broth let its distinct flavor come through naturally. If you're bringing parents who love abalone, I think they'd be pretty satisfied.

### How the nurungji texture changes as you eat

Personally, the most interesting part of this dish was how the texture of the nurungji changed over time. At first, even mixed into the hot broth, the scorched rice still holds onto some of its toasty flavor and texture. Then gradually, as it soaks up more of the broth, it turns soft and rich.

The flavor at the beginning, middle, and end is subtly different. It starts off toasty and light, and by the end, the nurungji has soaked up the broth and turned soft, making the broth itself slightly thicker. So by the last few spoonfuls, it's no longer just broth — it becomes a rich spoonful of nurungji and seafood together. This is a point that people looking for a gentle, restorative meal would really appreciate.

## Why Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang works for a meal with parents

The first thing that came to mind after eating at Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang was a family meal. There's no shortage of delicious food these days, but when dining with parents, taste alone isn't the only thing that matters. You naturally start checking things like whether parking is convenient, whether the seats are comfortable, whether the food is too intense, and whether you can sit and chat for a while.

With all that in mind, Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang felt like a restaurant well-suited for family visits. With room seating and fairly generous parking, it seemed like a good option for family gatherings, birthday meals, or dining out with parents. So if you're looking for a Bijeon-dong restaurant to visit with your parents, these are the kinds of details worth checking carefully. And for families who love seafood and nurungji, this is a menu that works well across generations without any gap in preference.

## Final verdict on Hwanggeum Seafood Nurungji-tang

If you're weighing where to take your parents for lunch along Manse-ro, the spacious parking, room seating, and comfortable seats here are worth considering. And for anyone looking for a restaurant in Bijeon-dong, instead of just thinking 'seafood stew,' it's better to think of this as a dish where you also get to enjoy the toasty flavor of nurungji-tang finished off in a hot stone pot. ^^

The scorched rice aroma rising from the hot stone pot, the refreshing seafood broth, and the big chunks of abalone! This is a good place to remember on days when you want something hearty but not too intense, or when you want to sit and enjoy a relaxed meal with your parents. I'd love to come back again the next time I'm craving something warm. Hahaha.
