Generous enough for two Eopu Kitchen's signature panne pasta showed up first haha ![Panne pasta served in a large oven dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-13-12v32-m-966.webp) It came in what you'd have to call a large bowl rather than a plate — a huge, hearty oven dish with a genuinely large portion haha It was more than plenty for two people, very satisfying!! Then the pork shoulder steak salad came out too, and the salad was also loaded with vegetables — and especially the pork shoulder portion was massive, so we got a proper protein boost too!! haha ![Panne pasta and pork steak salad set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-14-aodw3-966.webp) ![Pork shoulder steak salad loaded with vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-15-1ox9z-966.webp) ![Two Western dishes set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-16-1v6o3-m-966.webp) ### How the basil shrimp cream sauce option tastes Maybe because Eopu Kitchen is really serious about pasta, the noodles came out plump and cooked just chewy enough!! ![Plump pasta noodles coated in basil cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-17-hsb3x-966.webp) It was soaked in basil cream and genuinely delicious — a dish overflowing with the charm of chewy yet soft pasta haha There were also 5–6 plump, firm shrimp mixed in, so you got that springy shrimp texture alongside everything else!! The basil cream was so smooth and gently fragrant with basil it could pretty much be eaten on its own like a soup — good, good!! haha > If you love basil, I highly recommend switching to basil cream when you order the panne!! Dipping the bread generously into the moist cream and taking a bite filled my mouth with happiness!! haha ## Why you should add the pork shoulder steak salad Eopu Kitchen's pork shoulder steak salad has a genuinely huge portion and the pork shoulder itself is so generous that I really recommend ordering it alongside the pasta! ![Salad topped with smoky pork shoulder steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-18-g7wf4-1200.webp) ![Picking up a piece of pork shoulder steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-19-1r3yx-966.webp) Crisp, fresh vegetable salad topped with pork shoulder steak full of smoky char — it was properly done and I ate it so happily haha The combination of crunchy vegetables with the chewy, savory pork shoulder steak was absolutely the best!! haha ![Crunchy vegetables paired with pork shoulder steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-20-h18x4-966.webp) You also get tomato, pineapple, and roasted potato alongside it, which made for even more variety in flavor and texture! ![Tomato, pineapple, and roasted potato on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-21-1lups-966.webp) ## Is Eopu Kitchen in Incheon worth a visit? Eopu Kitchen is a place where you can properly taste a hearty variety of ingredients, and the pasta was really rich in flavor and delicious!! ![Dipping panne pasta bread into the sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-22-yf76c-966.webp) ![Basil cream panne pasta with shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta/appu-kitchen-incheon-panne-pasta-23-h827b-966.webp) The atmosphere is great and the staff are friendly, so I'm planning to come again with my parents next time!!
