A family of three with a 7-year-old arrived for an early dinner just before 5pm, ahead of the early close when ingredients sell out, and ordered black garlic boiled pork ssambap for two plus an extra black garlic squid stir-fry. The many non-spicy side dishes made feeding the child easy, and the sweet garlic sauce at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap was reason enough to return. ## Good to know - **Address**: 9 Dojeon 2-ro, Danyang-eup, Danyang-gun, Chungbuk - **Hours**: Daily 10:30–20:00 - **Break time**: 14:30–16:00 - **Last order**: 19:20 - **Menu**: Black garlic squid stir-fry ssambap, black garlic stir-fried pork ssambap, black garlic boiled pork ssambap - **This order**: Black garlic boiled pork ssambap for 2 + added black garlic squid stir-fry - **Visit time**: Before 5pm (closes early once ingredients run out) *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![A full table spread of black garlic boiled pork ssambap at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-01-adfz0-1200.webp) Hi, this is Cat Cheesemom. This past weekend I went on a one-night trip with my family to Danyang, Chungbuk. Let me tell you about our visit to Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap, the hottest spot near Danyang's Gyeonggyeong Market. ![Exterior of Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap near Gyeonggyeong Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-02-oqjnd-900.webp) ![Entrance signage at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-03-1qkej-900.webp) ## Why go to Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap early in the day Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap usually has a wait and closes early once ingredients run out, so we went for dinner before 5pm. I'd heard this place specializes in handmade black garlic sauce, garlic rice, and garlic dishes — it's known as a Danyang restaurant with a reputation, so waiting is common. ## The menu at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap The menu has just three items: black garlic squid stir-fry ssambap, black garlic pork ssambap, and black garlic boiled pork ssambap. My family is three people — my spouse, our 7-year-old, and me. With only three options, there wasn't much to agonize over, which was perfect for someone like me who struggles with decisions haha. All three use black garlic in the cooking, which makes them a distinctive Danyang restaurant menu. Since our 7-year-old can't handle spicy food yet, we ordered two servings of the black garlic boiled pork ssambap that the child could eat too. And since we figured we'd miss out on something spicy, we added the squid stir-fry for the adults, thinking — we're in Danyang, might as well eat freely :) ![Side dishes set on the table at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-04-l5n43-900.webp) ## Side dishes that work for eating with kids Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap basically has a really wide, generous side dish spread — every dish felt carefully made. Along with the wrap greens, there were plenty of mild sides like quail eggs, stir-fried seaweed stems, and stir-fried mushrooms, which made feeding my child so much easier. (When you're with a kid, having side dishes they can actually eat matters so much!) ![A plate of mild, non-spicy side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-05-1lb9j-900.webp) ![Stir-fried seaweed stems and quail egg side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-06-131r9-900.webp) ![A spread of side dishes including stir-fried mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-07-1mmre-900.webp) ![Side dishes served alongside wrap vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-08-1f5yn-900.webp) ## How do the black garlic boiled pork ssambap and squid stir-fry taste? We didn't wait long after ordering before the delicious Danyang black garlic ssambap arrived along with the squid stir-fry. Oh... aside from the variety of wrap greens, the spicy doenjang jjigae (fermented soybean stew) and the tender, soft boiled pork! And the garlic sauce on top was genuinely so good. ![Black garlic boiled pork topped with garlic sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-09-cw892-900.webp) ![The extra order of black garlic squid stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-10-v06dg-900.webp) ![Spicy doenjang jjigae with wrap greens](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-11-zievm-900.webp) I knew Danyang was famous for garlic, but I hadn't realized just how delicious this garlic sauce would be alongside the tender boiled pork — that sweet yet deep garlic aroma was so good. And the pork was boiled so perfectly, I wanted to know the secret. The garlic sauce was sweet without being too spicy, so even our child had no trouble eating it :) And I loved that it was only drizzled over half the dish! The squid stir-fry was spicy, with black garlic sauce drizzled on top too, and it was so good. I can't handle spice well, but I ate it happily even with my nose running. That sauce is truly the best!!!! ![A wrap topped with thick soybean paste and boiled pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-12-4iezl-900.webp) We wrapped rice with the thick soybean paste and greens, sometimes adding the boiled pork too — and even the plain doenjang jjigae was enough to make you eat extra rice. There were so many delicious sides I didn't know where to point my chopsticks next :) ![Black garlic rice and side dishes on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-13-1jujl-900.webp) ![The table spread partway through the meal at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-14-17x94-900.webp) ## Is Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap worth it for a family trip meal? Between the garlic rice, side dishes, and main dish all tasting so good, I totally understood why there's a weekend wait. It's a great place with kids and just as good for taking your parents. If you asked me for a Danyang restaurant recommendation from this trip, I'd strongly recommend this Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap near Gyeonggyeong Market! If we come back to Danyang, I'd want to revisit this place. ![The table after finishing the meal at Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner/danyang-black-garlic-ssambap-family-dinner-15-gm628-900.webp) That wraps up my review of Danyang Heukmaneul Ssambap, a great Danyang black garlic spot.
