Roomy eel all-you-can-eat in Suwon for tired parents: Songnim Bok

Songnim Bok Jangeo Freshwater Eel All-You-Can-Eat Suwon Main Branch (송림복장어 민물장어 무한리필 수원본관) is a newly opened all-you-can-eat restaurant near Suwon City Hall Station in Gwonseon-gu, Suwon, serving freshwater eel, pork belly and chicken neck. Two parents worn out by childcare and the midsummer heat came to recharge, took eel, meat and side dishes from the self-serve bar and grilled them over charcoal; the eel was clean, mild and nutty with no fishy taste. With roomy table spacing and plenty of seats, Songnim Bok Jangeo suits family meals as well as company dinners and group gatherings.

Yeongtong conveyor-belt sushi with no wait and futomaki: Teukbyeolhan

Teukbyeolhan Chobap is a ₩1,890 flat-rate conveyor-belt sushi restaurant on the second floor of a building on Cheongmyeongnam-ro in Yeongtong, Suwon. Evenings here usually mean a wait, but this visit went straight in, with solo dining at the bar seats facing the rail and off-rail orders of shrimp tempura, futomaki (thick sushi roll) and udon. The rice-to-fish ratio is well balanced and the fish stays clean and fresh, making Teukbyeolhan Chobap an easy choice for casual sushi in Yeongtong.

Old Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Gonjiam Branch is a sundaeguk (pork and blood sausage soup) and pork gukbap restaurant in Gonjiam-eup, Gwangju, Gyeonggi, right on the route between Gonjiam Resort and Hwadamsup Garden. After a night at the resort, the writer checked out and had a late breakfast here: a basic sundaeguk, a meat-only sundaeguk, and the set that comes with sliced boiled pork and chapssal sundae, all in a clean, rich broth with no gamey smell and generous sundae and meat. Old Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Gonjiam Branch is an easy stop for a hot bowl of soup at the end of a trip.

Dongtan cockle jjamppong takeout reheated at home: Bultina

Bultina Kkomak Jjamppong Dongtan Namgwangjang Branch is a cockle jjamppong (spicy seafood noodle soup) specialty Chinese restaurant at Namgwangjang square in Dongtan, Hwaseong, Gyeonggi. On this visit the writer ate a jumbo jajangmyeon in the dining room and took a level 1 cockle jjamppong home, simmering it once more in a pot, which made the broth richer and let it double as jjamppong rice with a scoop of rice stirred in. For anyone spice-shy, level 1 at Bultina Kkomak Jjamppong is the right call.
