Hanppong's signature mountain-high galbitang is capped at 130 servings a day and arrives with rib bones jutting out of the stone pot, meat that pulls apart in tender strands, and a rich beef bone broth that begs for a bowl of rice stirred in. For a Dunsan-dong lunch or a hearty restorative meal, Hanppong Dunsan is the answer. ## Good to know - **Name**: Hanppong Dunsan - **Address**: 1st floor, 27 Dunsan-ro 74beon-gil, Seo-gu, Daejeon (near City Hall Station Exit 2) - **Hours**: 10:50 - 20:30 - **Break time**: 15:00 - 17:00 (last order 20:10) - **Closed**: Every Sunday - **Menu**: Mountain-high galbitang, herbal bak kut teh, doganitang (ox knee soup), Korean beef ox head gukbap, bone broth pork gukbap, ox blood haejangguk - **Price range**: From 9,000 won - **Daily limit**: 130 servings a day - **Amenities**: Groups welcome, takeout, reservations, high chairs - **Price reference**: ₩9,000 ≈ $6.5 (2026-09-19) *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* What did everyone pick for lunch today? I recently went to a brand new restaurant in Dunsan-dong, Daejeon — a hotspot for office workers and packed with good eats. I'd been eyeing this place every time I walked past because of its jaw-dropping visuals, and I finally made it there: Hanppong Dunsan!! ![Exterior view of Hanppong Dunsan in Dunsan-dong, Daejeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-01-1c8pe-1200.webp) If you love gukbap (rice soup) and galbitang (short rib soup), this post is going to make you want to run over right now. Let's get into my vivid review of a broth so rich and a portion of meat so massive it left me gasping!! ## Where is Hanppong Dunsan, and how far is it from City Hall Station? Hanppong Dunsan is about 470m on foot from Exit 2 of City Hall Station. A clean, sleek white-toned sign catches your eye right away. True to the phrase on it — 'a galbitang and gukbap specialist made with care' — the entrance already has a certain presence. There's also a standing sign out front that reads 'Limited to 130 servings a day,' which sent my expectations through the roof — clearly a place putting everything on the line for flavor!! ![Standing sign reading 'limited to 130 servings a day'](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-02-1ejdg-900.webp) ## Hanppong Dunsan menu and prices Right by the entrance stands a large banner showing all the signature menu items at a glance. From mountain-high galbitang to herbal bakute, doganitang, Korean beef ox head gukbap, bone broth pork gukbap, and ox blood haejangguk, it's packed with hearty, restorative dishes. Prices start from ₩9,000, so it's a great combo of value and substance!! ## Inside Hanppong Dunsan: does it work for groups? Step inside Hanppong Dunsan and you're greeted by spacious, clean wood-toned tables. The seating is roomy and comfortable enough to work well for group gatherings or company dinners. A large menu board is mounted on the wall, so you can browse comfortably from your seat. ![Interior of Hanppong Dunsan with wood-toned tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-03-1yokt-900.webp) Overall, the place is kept spotlessly clean, so you can eat with total peace of mind. ## The signature mountain-high galbitang: why the name? Finally, the main dish I ordered — mountain-high galbitang — arrived bubbling away in a stone pot!! ![Mountain-high galbitang served in a stone pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-04-1x0l3-900.webp) ![Large rib bone jutting out of the stone pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-05-1ikoe-900.webp) ![Galbitang broth topped with plenty of green onion](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-06-1sjjc-900.webp) ![Close-up of the mountain-high galbitang stone pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-07-3w7w2-900.webp) ![Full table spread with galbitang](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-08-qisln-900.webp) ![Rib meat lifted up with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-09-7h7ch-900.webp) ![Galbitang meat pulling apart along the grain](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-10-6lct8-900.webp) ![Rib meat lifted out of the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-11-eum9a-900.webp) ![Rib meat dipped in the special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-12-t49nj-900.webp) ![Spoonful of bone broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-13-1vbf4-900.webp) ![Inside the pot showing the mountain-high galbitang packed with meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-14-2mgq5-900.webp) ![Galbitang bubbling in the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-15-skrqp-900.webp) ![Galbitang served with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-16-1gcgg-900.webp) ![Close-up of thick rib meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-17-gdcfg-900.webp) ![Vertical shot of the mountain-high galbitang](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-18-ru8pr-900.webp) ![Lifting the rib bone out of the mountain-high galbitang](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-19-12txk-900.webp) ![Cross-section of the mountain-high galbitang meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-20-47s72-900.webp) The moment it came out, I understood exactly why it's called 'mountain-high.' A massive, heavy rib bone juts straight out of the stone pot, and the sheer visual was too much not to photograph!! On top of the clear, deep-looking broth sits a generous pile of finely sliced green onion, pushing the appetizing factor to the max. Lifting the giant rib with chopsticks reveals thick, tender meat clinging to it that steals your attention completely. It's been simmered so long that it's not chewy at all — it pulls apart smoothly along the grain. There's not a hint of gamey smell, just a savory meaty aroma drifting up that made my mouth water uncontrollably!! Digging through the broth, more and more meat kept turning up — genuinely moving. Taking a sip of the broth first, the deep, rich flavor of the bone broth spreads through your whole mouth, and it feels like your entire body just melts. The seasoning is spot on — clean yet substantial — and I couldn't put my spoon down. ## Stirring rice into Hanppong's rich bone broth After dipping the tender rib meat into the special sauce, I poured a generous scoop of white rice into the remaining rich broth. ![White rice before being mixed into the galbitang broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-21-6dgsa-900.webp) ![Rice mixed into the rich broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-22-1bobb-900.webp) The hot broth seeps right into every grain of rice, completing the perfect bowl of gukbap. ![Finished bowl of galbitang gukbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-23-1afj5-900.webp) ![Galbitang table spread with kkakdugi and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch/hanppong-dunsan-sandeomi-galbitang-lunch-24-19dkm-900.webp) Top it off with a piece of well-fermented kkakdugi (radish kimchi) or kimchi, and you'll feel the ultimate satisfaction that washes away a whole day's fatigue. ## Final verdict and Hanppong Dunsan details - Name: Hanppong Dunsan - Address: 27 Dunsan-ro 74beon-gil, Seo-gu, Daejeon, South Korea, 1st floor (near City Hall Station Exit 2) - Hours: 10:50 - 20:30 (break time 15:00-17:00, last order 20:10) - Closed: Every Sunday - Features: Group seating, takeout, reservations, high chairs available With generous portions and a deep, rich broth, Hanppong Dunsan is a must-visit if you're looking for a Dunsan-dong lunch in Daejeon or a hearty, restorative meal.
