There are lots of dishes to add if you still feel a little hungry after the eel, so it seems easy to have a full meal here, haha. ![Basic side dishes for the grilled eel table](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-08-1qezm-900.webp) ![Variety of basic side dishes included in the ₩3,000 table setting fee](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-09-1a6ld-900.webp) The table setting fee is ₩3,000 per person, because the basic side dishes come in such a wide variety!! The ₩3,000 wasn't a waste at all, haha. ![Side dish self-serve bar at Jangsuchon](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-10-cm7vn-900.webp) If you run out of side dishes, just grab more from the self-serve bar :) ![Charcoal for grilling eel brought to the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-11-b4ikr-900.webp) ## How was the 1.5kg salt-grilled eel for three? The three of us ordered the salt-grilled eel, 1.5kg (₩89,000). Eel tastes best grilled over charcoal, right? The exciting charcoal arrives! In one corner of the restaurant you can even see a staff member firing up the charcoal. ![The ordered 1.5kg salt-grilled eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-12-3al1b-900.webp) ![1.5kg salt-grilled eel on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-13-19y2y-900.webp) Outside the restaurant there's an eel tank full of eels, and they looked totally lively and fresh, which raised my expectations. I took a photo but it felt kind of creepy so I didn't post it,, haha. Jangsuchon serves only 100% domestic eel and keeps certificates of origin in the restaurant, so I could eat with confidence bb ![Domestic eel being salt-grilled over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-14-11a1l-1200.webp) The staff sprinkle on purple salt made with Gochang bokbunja (black raspberry), then grill it deliciously from start to finish 👏 ![Eel grilling with bokbunja salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-15-lva1p-900.webp) The eel turns golden brown~ The skin was wonderfully chewy and the flesh so tender. So good. They also grill rice cake (tteok) on top of the cooked eel, and said they'd bring more if we asked. I wanted more but was too full, so I passed,, 😭 The slightly golden-crusted look made my mouth water,,, I want to eat it again,, ![Golden-brown eel with grilled rice cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-16-1esby-900.webp) Perilla leaf with eel sauce + ginger strips, the classic stamina-boosting combo~ It's healthy and tasty, and personally I think those three together are the best combination, haha. ![Perilla leaf wrap with eel, sauce and ginger strips](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-17-1u7tf-900.webp) ## Eel soup, review-event shrimp and eel juice: what comes with the meal? At Jangsuchon near Bongcheon Station, you even get an extra eel soup per person. The soup has eel and loach in it, so it's richer than chueotang (loach soup), and mixing in a bowl of rice made it a hearty, perfect meal in no time. ![Eel soup served per person](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-18-cmyt7-900.webp) ![Eel soup with eel and loach, and a bowl of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-19-8ubog-900.webp) The shrimp from the review event..!! Normally the review event gives 5 shrimp, but for the 3 of us they gave 6 so we could share 2 each. Such a thoughtful touch, I was so moved. ![Shrimp received for the review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-20-znm1d-900.webp) ![Six review-event shrimp shared by three people](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-21-1ypwm-900.webp) After the meal, they gave each of us an eel juice to restore our energy! A perfect course, haha. Even the water isn't plain water but yeokwanmun (angelica) tea,, :) ![Eel juice and yeokwanmun tea served after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course-22-f7p3j-900.webp) The restroom is inside on the 2nd floor, with separate men's and women's rooms. ## Verdict: is Jangsuchon a good group eel restaurant in Bongcheon? At Jangsuchon Bongcheon Station branch, it was a perfect meal: starting with yeokwanmun tea, then eel, eel soup, and finishing with eel juice. The staff were all friendly, and since they grill the eel from start to finish, you can enjoy it without a worry, haha. With group seating available, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a group restaurant in Bongcheon-dong!! 100% I'll be back. ## Where it is - Jangsuchon Pungcheon Eel Direct Store (장수촌풍천장어직판장) - 382 Bongcheon-ro, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 관악구 봉천로 382 풍천장수촌 - 37.483029, 126.9420815 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9E%A5%EC%88%98%EC%B4%8C%ED%92%8D%EC%B2%9C%EC%9E%A5%EC%96%B4%EC%A7%81%ED%8C%90%EC%9E%A5/@37.483029,126.9420815,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@night-rail-gyeonggi/bongcheon-eel-group-dinner-course/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
