We came for lunch, and it's an ocean-view place where you can see both Seongsan Ilchulbong and Udo at a glance. The big parking area is a real plus, especially if you're travelling by rental car! Parking in Jeju can be a surprisingly annoying thing, so I liked this. ![Surroundings and parking area of Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-04-1oiv7-m-900.webp) ![Photo from a visit to Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-05-16typ-900.webp) ![Seating inside Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-06-jg4rb-m-900.webp) The inside is clean with plenty of seats, so it looks good for families and groups too. ![Interior of Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-07-mem0p-966.webp) ## What are the side dishes like? Homemade kimchi and wild rock seaweed The restaurant puts a lot of care into its side dishes, like homemade kimchi and natural rock seaweed (dolmiyeok). They say the kimchi is made in-house rather than imported from China, and the other sides are homemade too. The natural rock seaweed is the signature side. They say it's a treat dipped in the house chogochujang (sweet-and-sour chili sauce), made with 25 years of know-how plus three kinds of fruit. ![Spread of homemade side dishes at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-08-1lmic-900.webp) ![Natural rock seaweed with homemade chogochujang](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-09-j5b65-900.webp) And the seaweed soup is self-serve with unlimited refills! It's made with broth simmered for 3 hours, so it was really rich and tasty. ![Self-serve unlimited seaweed soup at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-10-gmr2l-900.webp) ![Seaweed soup and side dishes at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-11-car27-900.webp) ## Mixed braise prices and the grilled cutlassfish bonus The signature dish is the mixed braise, where you get both cutlassfish and mackerel: ₩39,000 for 2 people, ₩59,000 for 3 and ₩79,000 for 4. You get Jeju cutlassfish along with plump Norwegian mackerel. - ✔ 2 people ₩39,000 - ✔ 3 people ₩59,000 - ✔ 4 people ₩79,000 The most surprising part: order the mixed braise and you get a grilled whole Jeju cutlassfish for free! Even a single cutlassfish braise in Jeju isn't cheap, so this is pretty good value, right? ![Mixed braise menu at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-12-boco5-900.webp) ![Grilled whole cutlassfish served with the mixed braise](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-13-1obd7-900.webp) ## How does the braise for two taste? Thick cutlassfish, bones removed for you Ta-da, the braise for two has arrived! With the mixed braise you get cutlassfish and mackerel in one go, so there's no agonizing over what to order. They deboned the cutlassfish for us in advance, which I loved haha The cutlassfish is thick and soft, and the flesh comes off with just a light touch of your chopsticks. It's clean and savory with no fishy taste, and the spicy, zesty sauce soaks right in. The sauce isn't overly harsh but has great depth, so with the fish on top of white rice it was a total rice thief 🤤 ![Cutlassfish and mackerel braise for two](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-14-utgcy-1200.webp) ![Braised cutlassfish flesh on white rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-15-bcwhl-900.webp) They say the braise is made with broth simmered for 3–4 hours and a secret sauce aged 15 days in the fridge. The sauce is spicy yet deep, a dish that makes you think of white rice right away. ![Sauce of the mixed braise at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-16-yj4ub-900.webp) ![Wrapping up the meal at Seongsan Bada Punggyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch/seongsan-mixed-braised-cutlassfish-lunch-17-1w01z-900.webp) ## The restroom and the owner The restrooms are inside the restaurant, which was convenient, and they're separate for men and women. The owner said that not only the cutlassfish but he himself is from Jeju, and I burst out laughing ㅋㅋㅋ 😂 ## Is it worth adding to your Seongsan Ilchulbong and Udo route? They've served cutlassfish braise and grilled whole cutlassfish for 25 years, so it's a good pick when you're craving Jeju local food. If you're planning a Seongsan Ilchulbong or Udo trip, I'd recommend adding it to your route!
