We wanted to fill up on something good before shopping, so while looking for a nice place to eat, we stopped by Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch, which has been getting hot as a Gomae-dong restaurant lately! From handmade noodle shabu kalguksu to minari (water dropwort) wraps and perilla oil kkakdugi (radish kimchi) fried rice, this was a great value full course. Let me walk you through it now! ## Where is Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch, and its hours and parking Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch is at 경기 용인시 기흥구 고매로 90 1층, open 10:30–21:00 with a break time from 16:00–17:00.

When I arrived, it was weekend lunch and the interior was completely packed with customers. 22 teams waiting, seriously..? It really lives up to being a famous restaurant near Lotte Premium Outlet Giheung! ![Waiting status board showing 22 teams during weekend lunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-03-b372h-966.webp) Still, since this store supports CatchTable, reserving ahead before you visit makes things much easier haha. There's also a separate waiting area where you can sit, and while you wait you can even eat nostalgic retro snacks! ![Waiting area at Jangwongap Kalguksu with retro snacks displayed](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-04-e98wu-966.webp) ![Nostalgic retro snacks displayed in the waiting area](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-05-fwbvw-966.webp) They even had cool, nutty misugaru (roasted grain powder) slush and coffee available, which was nice haha. ![Misugaru slush enjoyed while waiting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-06-1idp8-966.webp) ![Self-serve corner with misugaru slush and coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-07-msvak-966.webp) Since I'd already done remote queueing in advance through CatchTable, I got seated quickly without waiting long. ## Jangwongap Kalguksu menu and prices ![Menu board and prices at Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-08-1g5n8-966.webp) - Beef brisket minari wrap shabu kalguksu - ₩15,500 - Live abalone brisket shabu kalguksu - ₩22,000 - Shabu kalguksu - ₩12,000 - Basic kalguksu (no meat) - ₩10,000 - Whole shrimp seafood pancake - ₩13,500 - Jochiwon peach bibim mandu (limited to 20/day) - ₩9,900 ## Beef brisket and minari wrap shabu kalguksu in spicy red broth, 15,500 won You can choose between red broth, white broth, or mala broth (+₩1,000 per person), but shabu kalguksu has to be spicy, right? So I ordered the spicy broth without a second thought haha. ![Pot of shabu kalguksu ordered with spicy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-09-rhb6h-966.webp) Since it's premium wagyu brisket, the meat had a beautiful color and came out neatly plated with very fresh-looking minari wraps. ![Table setting of premium wagyu brisket and minari wraps](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-10-sq7dt-966.webp) Alongside it came top-grade 100% sesame oil and savory galchisokjeot (salted hairtail entrails), set up together haha. ![Sesame oil dipping sauce and galchisokjeot set up on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-11-e9tdp-966.webp) They also serve handmade kalguksu noodles made with clean water, nuruk salt, and the finest flour — kneaded a whopping thousand times, apparently! Depending on cooking time, you can enjoy five different textures: chewy (6 min), springy (7 min), bouncy (8 min), fluffy (9 min), and soft (10 min) haha. The kimchi, made with domestic Uiseong garlic, dried pollack, and Namhae anchovies, is apparently freshly made in-house at least 3 times a day :) ![Uiseong garlic kimchi made fresh daily](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-12-5sazf-966.webp) With such good ingredients, I figured it would only taste better! Each table has instructions on how to eat it deliciously, so even first-timers can follow along slowly haha. ![Instructions on how to enjoy the meal printed at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-13-c0qns-966.webp) I tried the broth and oyster mushrooms first. They use spring-autumn oyster mushrooms, and the texture was chewy and paired well with the broth, so it was delicious haha. I blanched the wagyu brisket lightly in the bubbling spicy broth and tried it — it was really tender! ![Wagyu brisket blanched in the spicy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-14-8p6ft-966.webp) It's delicious even plain, but dipping it in minari and top-grade sesame oil doubles the nuttiness. ![Brisket wrapped in minari and dipped in sesame oil](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-15-1xyul-966.webp) ![Beef brisket minari wrap dipped in sesame oil sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-16-1erum-966.webp) I also tried adding a bit of galchisokjeot on top, and it was a real treat. ## Adding the house-made kalguksu noodles: how was the texture? After filling up on the meat and vegetables, I finally dropped in the handmade kalguksu noodles I'd been looking forward to! They say not to pick up the noodles with tongs, just put them in as they are. After tasting them, I immediately understood why this place won the Food Master award haha. Totally chewy, soft, and delicious! ![Handmade kalguksu noodles dropped into the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-17-vufyl-966.webp) ![Chewy kalguksu noodles lifted out of the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-18-4et7a-966.webp) Eaten together with the domestic Uiseong garlic kimchi, it was an excellent Gomae-dong restaurant in Yongin that I couldn't stop eating. ![Uiseong garlic kimchi eaten alongside the kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-19-gmada-966.webp) ## Finishing with perilla oil kkakdugi (radish kimchi) fried rice Now it was time to try the perilla oil kkakdugi (radish kimchi) fried rice! They apparently use 100% perilla oil, well-ripened kkakdugi, domestic seaweed flakes, and top-grade domestic new rice. ![A bowl of perilla oil kkakdugi fried rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-20-1t7ns-966.webp) The perilla oil made the nuttiness spread through my whole mouth, so it was even more delicious haha. I recommend trying at least one bite even if you're already full! ![A spoonful of nutty perilla oil kkakdugi fried rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-21-nl7qh-966.webp) ### Whole shrimp seafood pancake, the side dish worth 13,500 won I also ordered the whole shrimp seafood pancake as a side dish, and it was crispy outside and moist inside, the definition of crispy-outside-tender-inside! ![Whole shrimp seafood pancake ordered as a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-22-zmbd8-966.webp) It was packed with big squid and tons of plump shrimp, so the texture was great and the flavor was rich and satisfying. ![Cross-section of the pancake packed with squid and whole shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-23-33xh8-966.webp) ![A piece of whole shrimp seafood pancake picked up](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue-24-sw2mp-966.webp) ## Is Jangwongap Kalguksu in Gomae-dong, Yongin worth the wait? From the award-winning handmade kalguksu noodles to the premium wagyu brisket minari wraps, perilla oil kkakdugi fried rice, and the crispy-outside-tender-inside pancake, everything was perfect at this Gomae-dong restaurant in Yongin haha. I loved that it was hearty and satisfying with such a varied spread! If you're heading to Lotte Premium Outlet Giheung for shopping, or looking for a tasty meal near Gomae-dong in Giheung, I recommend Jangwongap Kalguksu :) ## Where it is - Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch (장원갑칼국수 용인기흥점) - 경기도 용인시 기흥구 고매로 90 1층, South Korea - 경기도 용인시 기흥구 고매로 90 1층 - 37.2295313, 127.1186096 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9E%A5%EC%9B%90%EA%B0%91%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%EC%9A%A9%EC%9D%B8%EA%B8%B0%ED%9D%A5%EC%A0%90/@37.2295313,127.1186096,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@paju-riverside-spoon-3/yongin-gomae-kalguksu-remote-queue/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
