Instead of regular barley tea, it was labeled Jirisan sanghwang mushroom tea, which made me feel healthier just drinking it haha ![Water labeled as Jirisan sanghwang mushroom tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-13-19y3j-966.webp) ## Free rice refills and the self-serve side dish bar At Sumine Gukbap Iksan Mohyeon branch, if you run out of rice, you can help yourself for free at the self-serve corner in front of the kitchen. Maybe because the brand started from Kim Soomi's home-cooking philosophy, the generosity really showed 🥺 ![Free rice self-serve corner in front of the kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-14-1jmz1-966.webp) ![Self-serve bar with extra side dishes and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-15-cf2xf-966.webp) The self-serve bar has extra side dishes, peppers, and ssamjang, and the house-made kimchi is genuinely delicious!! .𖥔 ݁ ˖ Since it's precious food, take just as much as you'll eat so nothing goes to waste 😝 ![Seasoning sauces set out at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-16-n532u-966.webp) All the seasonings you need are set out here too! ## How the Naver receipt review event gets you a half plate of sundae 💚There's also a Naver receipt review event running! ![Naver receipt review event signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-17-bisby-m-966.webp) You could choose not just a drink but a side dish too!! Fried mandu (dumplings) or a half plate of sundae were both options, which was amazing ㅠㅠ We picked the half plate of sundae and enjoyed a really generous serving 🔥 ## How do Sumine Gukbap's osori gukbap and sundae gukbap taste? Everything's arrived! ![Table set with two bowls of gukbap and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-18-150xf-1200.webp) Milky white soup and perfectly ripened kimchi!! At Sumine Gukbap Iksan Mohyeon branch, fresh pork bones and lean meat are simmered for a long time into a rich broth, generously loaded with chewy sundae and organ meats for a really filling meal! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) ‹𝟹 The harmony of the broth — made using Kim Soomi's signature recipe and a variety of ingredients — with the rice is superb~ We ordered osori gukbap (left) and sundae gukbap (right)! ![Osori gukbap with milky white broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-19-jvfyt-966.webp) ![Sundae gukbap loaded with ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-20-q4cob-966.webp) The broth is very milky white and deep in flavor, so just adjusting the seasoning to taste makes it great!! ｡𖦹°‧ The organs were tender and really delicious! ![Gukbap seasoned with salted shrimp, dadaegi, and perilla powder](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-21-1u3xl-966.webp) You can grab salted shrimp, dadaegi, and perilla seed powder from the self-serve corner to make it even tastier ♥︎ Even though it's not the large size, the generous amount of ingredients is a work of art 🤤 My favorite part of sundae organs is osori gamtu (a specific organ cut), which is a specialty piece you don't often get to eat much of — but Sumine Gukbap Iksan Mohyeon branch has a gukbap loaded with just that, so I picked it right away!! ![Gukbap ingredients including osori gamtu organ meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-22-1vr9q-966.webp) Also, while other gukbap places usually use regular glass noodles, Sumine Gukbap Iksan Mohyeon branch used slightly thicker Chinese glass noodles!! That gave it a more distinctive chew~ ![Gukbap with thick Chinese glass noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-23-19nse-966.webp) ## The side order: half plate of sundae Here's the half plate of sundae we ordered as a side! Two kinds of sundae came out, and they were great dipped in vinegared gochujang or added right into the gukbap~ The sundae was packed full of meat, giving it a nice chew, and there was no gamey smell at all — really delicious ![Half plate with two kinds of sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate-24-1kg0q-966.webp) My companion added rice twice and finished it all 🤣🤣 If you're craving the taste of home-cooked care and effort, I recommend Sumine Gukbap Iksan Mohyeon branch, which packs simplicity and deep flavor into a single bowl of gukbap~ ## Where it is - Sumine Gukbap (수미네국밥) - 136 Baesan-ro, 103–104ho, Iksan-si, Jeonbuk-do, South Korea - 전북특별자치도 익산시 배산로 136 103호~104호 - 35.9497147, 126.9407293 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%88%98%EB%AF%B8%EB%84%A4%EA%B5%AD%EB%B0%A5/@35.9497147,126.9407293,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@namdo-salt-dish/iksan-mohyeon-sumine-gukbap-sundae-plate/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
