Euljiro 3-ga Japanese restaurant: soft omurice & ramune date, Hurato

I visited Hurato Sikdang Euljiro (후라토식당 을지로점), a Euljiro 3-ga restaurant 😋✨ I was wondering what to have for lunch and ended up here, and we got in right away with no wait, which was so convenient haha. We ordered a steak bowl, omurice (rice omelet), and a Ramune Sangaria marble soda. The lineup was really satisfying 🍽️

Where is Hurato Sikdang Euljiro?

Hurato Sikdang Euljiro is in the basement level 1 of the Tower107 building, near Euljiro 3-ga Station. Besides Hurato, the building has a cluster of other restaurants. Even the hallway downstairs feels brand new, the building is clean and the restrooms are spotless, so we ate in total comfort. When you're walking around Seoul on foot, you want to sit back and relax at mealtime, and the Tower107 restaurant floor is perfect for that.

Walking up to the shop, the standing sign showed Hurato's signature dishes looking delicious. The entrance was neat and tidy too, so it stood out at a glance even from far away 💡

Inside Hurato Sikdang Euljiro: seating and atmosphere

The interior is dark-toned wood, which caught my eye 🤎 It feels clean and organized, so it's nice for a calm meal with conversation ✨

Our seat was near a big glass window, so it didn't feel stuffy and had an open feel. I loved it 🪟

Every table was neatly set, so it was easy to sit down comfortably 👍

How do you order at Hurato Sikdang Euljiro?

Once you sit down, you tag your phone on the table and the order screen pops up right away. No need to tap a separate tablet, so ordering from my phone was really convenient haha. We ordered the steak bowl and the omurice, and also! There was ramune on the menu! It looked so fun that we ordered one too haha.

What does the Ramune Sangaria marble soda taste like?

The Ramune Sangaria marble soda I ordered as a drink tasted most like Ppongtta (a Korean popsicle with a soda flavor). The fun part is pressing the marble on top of the bottle to open it 😆 Honestly, it didn't just pop open, it took more force than I expected lol. My boyfriend slammed the marble down so hard the whole table shook, bang! It felt like a little event made out of a single ramune, like we'd traveled to Japan, and it was so fun haha.

When I drank it, the closest taste really was Ppongtta! It tasted just like Ppongtta. It was so nice to sip something cold in between bites! If there's ramune next time, I'm definitely ordering it haha. Highly recommend 👍🏻

Side dishes at Hurato Sikdang Euljiro

The sides served with the main dishes were kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), danmuji (pickled yellow radish), pickled chili peppers, pickled ginger, cabbage salad, and a clear soup. The sweet-and-sour kkakdugi and danmuji went well with the mains 👍

The pickled chili peppers and pickled ginger were clean-tasting too and got my appetite going 🍃

The cabbage salad with a fresh dressing was nice and light 🥗

The warm clear soup was perfectly seasoned, great for sipping between bites 🥣

How good is the steak rice bowl at Hurato Sikdang?

The steak bowl comes generously topped with meat, an onsen egg (soft-poached egg) and wasabi. When it finally arrived, I gasped at how it looked ✨ So appetizing 😋

The meat was really tender with a smoky grilled aroma, and the rice, sauce and juices came together for a savory depth that was just amazing 😭 👍 Breaking the yolk and eating it together made it even smoother and tastier!!

The topping combination was perfect, so I cleaned the bowl to the very end 🤤

How soft is the omurice at Hurato Sikdang?

The omurice at Hurato Sikdang Euljiro arrives with a fluffy, billowy blanket of egg on top, and you cut it in half with a knife to reveal the inside. I was so excited for an omurice with that fluffy egg blanket 🍳

You cut the omurice in half with a knife and the inside is revealed. It was so soft that when I split it, the omurice spread open with a swoosh 🤩 Then I poured on plenty of the special sauce to finish it ✨

When I scooped it with a spoon, the omurice~~ the omurice~~ was not of this world! No exaggeration, this is the softest omurice I've ever had!!

It was so soft that I kept marveling with every bite hahaha. It was such a happy meal ☺️ I fully admit this is a legit Japanese omurice spot in Euljiro~~

Would I go back to Hurato Sikdang Euljiro?

It was such a happy day, a date with my boyfriend and tasty Japanese food after a long time 😄 I loved the combo of Hurato's steak bowl and omurice, so I'm definitely going back!! 😋✨
