Traveling Jeju with a baby, the writer stopped by in the early evening and took out the best-selling Jejju Lunchbox, which packed a smoky octopus rice bowl, salmon and shrimp sushi, a fish cutlet and fried shrimp into one box.

A few days into traveling with my baby, sitting down to eat at a restaurant every single meal was surprisingly hard. So this time I decided to eat comfortably at the accommodation instead, and stopped by nearby Jejju Donghong Branch (제쭈 동홍점) to pick up a lunchbox to go. I went in the early evening and got it right away with no waiting, which made things so much easier. ## Where is Jejju Donghong Branch, and how does parking and takeout work? Jejju Donghong Branch is a lunchbox and sushi restaurant on Donghongjungang-ro in Seogwipo, in a first-floor glass-front space that's easy to spot from the street. Since we were getting takeout, we parked briefly behind the building and headed straight in. ![Exterior of Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-01-1lvzf-900.webp) I'd assumed Jejju Donghong Branch was just a plain lunchbox shop, but it turned out to have a spacious dining area too — great for eating out with family, not just takeout. We went a bit early in the evening, so we could grab our takeout order quickly with no wait. ![First-floor glass-front dining area of Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-02-1qr8u-900.webp) ![Entrance and sign of Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-03-fehor-900.webp) ![Spacious seating inside Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-04-1p2nm-900.webp) Seeing the certified good-price business sign posted near the entrance gave me a bit more confidence. There was clearly a reason the portions felt so generous for the price. ![Certified good-price business sign at Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-05-1j40d-900.webp) *Certified good-price business :)* ## The Jejju Donghong Branch menu: sushi, rice bowls and lunchboxes Looking at the menu at Jejju Donghong Branch, there was quite a variety — sushi, rice bowls, and lunchboxes. The wall also had prices posted separately for a 3-piece sushi set, which seemed like a good option for anyone wanting something lighter. ![Menu board listing sushi, rice bowls, and lunchboxes at Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-06-147ku-900.webp) ![3-piece sushi set price posted on the wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-07-1u0cy-900.webp) I picked the Jejju Lunchbox without a second thought. It's the best-selling menu item after all, so my expectations were high. ![Takeout box of the Jejju Lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-08-2cjp2-966.webp) ![Takeout bag and lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-09-6v9ky-966.webp) ## How much do you get in the Jejju Lunchbox? The Jejju Lunchbox packed salmon sushi, shrimp sushi, crispy fried fish cutlet and fried shrimp, plus a sweet-seasoned main dish, all filling up one box with no gaps to spare. The moment I opened the takeout bag, the whole spread caught my eye. The compartments made it fun to eat too — picking off one thing at a time was satisfying. ![Full compartmented spread of the Jejju Lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-10-1nrmk-900.webp) ![Jejju Lunchbox with sushi and fried items](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-11-15yul-966.webp) > Best-selling menu: Jejju Lunchbox — it's so good. You can tell right from the first bite why it's the best seller~ Looking at these photos again makes me want to eat it all over again... ![Best-selling Jejju Lunchbox laid out](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-12-g0czr-1200.webp) ![Close-up of the main dish in the Jejju Lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-13-1o23f-966.webp) The basic side dishes included seasoned greens, radish pickle, and pickled cucumber, and the soup was a clear burdock-and-fried-tofu broth that was mild and easy to eat. For a single lunchbox, having this much packed in felt really generous. ![Basic side dishes including seasoned greens and radish pickle](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-14-1g1l5-966.webp) ![Clear soup with burdock and fried tofu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-15-pkina-966.webp) ### The smoky octopus rice bowl in the Jejju Lunchbox The Jejju Lunchbox also included an octopus rice bowl besides the sushi, which made it feel really substantial and thoughtfully put together. I'd never had such a thoughtfully made lunchbox even in Seoul, so it felt great to have one like this here in Jeju. The octopus rice bowl had a smoky char flavor and was so generously portioned that my husband loved it. If you're after smoky octopus, I really recommend this one. ![Smoky octopus rice bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-16-1mq6m-966.webp) ![Close-up of the generously portioned octopus rice bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-17-1ve58-966.webp) ### Salmon sushi and shrimp sushi The salmon sushi looked fresh even from its color, and biting into it, it was soft and clean with no fishy taste. The shrimp sushi also had a firm, springy texture that kept my chopsticks coming back for more. ![Salmon sushi and shrimp sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-18-1tc3q-966.webp) *Sushi* ![Close-up of sushi in the lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-19-11rq9-966.webp) ### Are the fish cutlet and fried shrimp still crispy once cooled? The fish cutlet and fried shrimp had a thin, crispy coating. Even after cooling down, they didn't get soggy, and the texture held up well for the whole trip back to the accommodation. There was a light glaze of sauce with a salty-sweet flavor that was quietly addictive. ![Crispy fish cutlet and fried shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-20-zswgj-966.webp) *Fish cutlet and fried shrimp* ![Cross-section of the sauced fish cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-21-29r42-966.webp) ![Close-up of the fried shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-22-k7nm3-966.webp) ![Jejju Lunchbox laid out for eating at the accommodation](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-23-wq4kt-966.webp) ![Final shot of eating the Jejju Lunchbox](https://img.superchart.com/images/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox-24-1bs8a-966.webp) ## Traveling Jeju with a baby? Take the lunchbox back to your stay We laid out the Jejju Donghong Branch lunchbox comfortably once we got back to the accommodation, and it was exactly the kind of meal you can quietly enjoy after putting the baby to sleep. The portion was generous enough to be a full meal, and the balance between the side dishes and main dish meant we enjoyed it all the way through without getting tired of it. I'm giving this 5 stars without hesitation, and I think I'll be picking up another one the next time I'm in Seogwipo. ## Where it is - Jejju Donghong Branch (제쭈 동홍점) - 58-8 Donghongjungang-ro, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do, South Korea - 제주특별자치도 서귀포시 동홍중앙로 58-8 제쭈 - 33.2556091, 126.5726332 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EC%AD%88%20%EB%8F%99%ED%99%8D%EC%A0%90/@33.2556091,126.5726332,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@jeju-tide-table/seogwipo-jejju-donghong-takeout-lunchbox/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
