The lunch-special sushi set meal (₩25,000) came with chawanmushi (Japanese steamed egg custard), flounder, sea bream, tuna belly, soy sauce shrimp and sea eel neta, kelp-aged sushi, assorted tempura and a savory soup. With partitioned seating and private rooms, it's a solid pick for a business lunch or a meal with parents. ## Good to know - **Address**: 37 Hwasin-ro 260beon-gil, 2F, Deogyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (Hwajeong-dong, Jinsol Plaza) - **Hours**: 11:00–21:00 (break time 15:00–17:00, last order 20:30) - **Closed**: Every Sunday - **Sushi Set Meal Special (lunch)**: ₩25,000 - **Set composition**: Premium special sushi + chawanmushi (steamed egg) + salad + assorted tempura + savory soup - **Parking**: 1 hour free at nearby Hwajeong E-Mart parking lot - **Transit**: 3-minute walk from Hwajeong Station Exits 1/2 - **Seating**: Partitioned seats, private room seating available *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* ![Main image of Min Cook Dasima, a Japanese restaurant near Hwajeong Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-01-bluom-1200.webp) Whenever I'm craving neat, refined Japanese sushi, there's one place that always comes to mind first.

With neta sourced fresh that day plus 20 years of kelp-aging expertise, my expectations for this premium sushi set were sky-high. ![Salad and Japanese steamed egg custard chawanmushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-04-6p3t5-m-966.webp) ### Salad and chawanmushi First we tried the refreshing salad along with the pudding-soft Japanese steamed egg custard (chawanmushi), and the subtle savory depth of the bonito broth warmed up our empty stomachs nicely. ![A spoonful of chawanmushi with shrimp and mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-05-4e6kl-966.webp) Taking a spoonful of the chawanmushi loaded with plump shrimp and mushrooms, the silky texture naturally got our appetites going. ![Sushi neta including flounder, sea bream, salmon, and tuna belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-06-1v3ic-966.webp) ### Premium neta lineup It was a full, premium neta lineup — from in-season white-flesh flounder and sea bream to glossy salmon, tuna belly, soy sauce shrimp, and sea eel. ![Plate of sushi topped with soy sauce shrimp and sea eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-07-qcx8h-966.webp) ## So how does kelp-aged sushi taste? Min Cook Dasima's core secret is its patented kelp-aging technique! ![Close-up of sushi made with the kelp-aging method](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-08-zjvjw-966.webp) Wrapping the fish in kelp to age draws out moisture while maximizing umami and chewy stickiness, so the moment a piece of sushi hits your mouth, it melts away with unbelievable softness. ![Picking up a piece of kelp-aged sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-09-nqwop-966.webp) ![Vertical shot of the Sushi Set Meal Special's sushi lineup](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-10-1a7py-966.webp) ### Assorted tempura and savory soup While we savored the sushi, freshly fried shrimp tempura and sweet pumpkin tempura, still crisp, arrived alongside a hot savory soup. ![Assorted tempura with shrimp and sweet pumpkin](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-11-6bmjv-966.webp) The moist shrimp meat under the crunchy batter was excellent, and the deep, refreshing broth paired perfectly with the sushi. Chewy raw-fish sushi ➔ soft salmon sushi ➔ crispy-outside-tender-inside assorted tempura ➔ refreshing soup ![Hot savory soup served with the sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-12-b34l7-966.webp) Following a piece of neat sushi with a sip of the warm broth cleared the palate completely, giving full satisfaction right down to the last bite. ## Sushi Set Meal Special price and composition - Sushi Set Meal Special (lunch): ₩25,000 - Composition: Premium special sushi + chawanmushi (steamed egg) + salad + assorted tempura + savory soup - Parking: 1 hour free at nearby Hwajeong E-Mart parking lot ![The sushi set meal spread near the end of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch/hwajeong-station-kelp-aged-sushi-lunch-13-1rihs-966.webp) In a single bite, I could taste exactly why this place has earned the steady love of the local community for 20 long years — it was a top-tier Japanese dining experience.
