Korean course meal with kids near Sejong Arboretum: Bapkkot Hansang

Bapkkot Hansang is a course-style hanjeongsik (Korean set-meal) restaurant on Doum8-ro in Sejong, close to Sejong Arboretum and Sejong Lake Park. On a family outing with a child, the writer booked ahead, parked in the building's underground garage and ordered the Bapkkot Special for two, which came out course by course from salad and perilla cream noodles to vegetable pancake, herbal medicinal pork, tteokgalbi (grilled short rib patties) and gangdoenjang (thick soybean paste stew). Bapkkot Hansang gets long waits, so a reservation means sitting down and eating right away.

With easy building parking and a private room, Italy Shabu Kalguksu works for both family meals and group gatherings.
