Kid-friendly Japanese diner in Kkachisan: pork rib bowl, Hekbap

Today I'm sharing a very satisfied review of Hekbap Kkachisan Branch, a great spot near Kkachisan Station. It has lots of good-value dishes, plus a roomy space with seats for solo diners all the way up to big groups, and I'd really recommend it for a date too. Okay, let me tell you about this meal I enjoyed so much~

Hekbap signature dishes

• Rice bowls (donburi): The restaurant says the meat is pan-seared at 200 degrees the moment you order and finished with Hekbap's own sauce. Choose from smoky, flavorful steak bowls and beef intestine bowls to generous bowls of fresh salmon, depending on your taste.
• Ramen: A hearty bowl of deep, rich broth simmered long in the traditional Japanese way, with chewy noodles.
• Curry and katsu: There's also curry made Hekbap's own way, and thick, crispy katsu (breaded cutlet) dishes.

Pork jowl bowl set: with mini udon, fried chicken karaage and rice cake

The first dish is the pork jowl bowl set I chose. It came with a nice variety of sides: mini udon, fried chicken karaage and rice cake~ And above all, doesn't the pork jowl bowl look so, so delicious? haha

Pork rib bowl: our child finished a whole bowl alone

The second dish is the pork rib bowl our child chose. It's a dish that can hardly be bad, but our child really ate it so well, lol. Finishing a whole bowl alone says it all, right?^^ Seeing our child eat so well made me so happy, and I thought we definitely have to come back!

Diner-style giant pork cutlet + extra mini udon

The third dish is the diner-style giant pork cutlet with extra mini udon that my husband chose. A really big cutlet!! It was generous and tasty, just like the nostalgic flavor you remember~ My husband added the mini udon too and had a proper good meal, haha
