I tried the ₩12,000 Special Curry and Sarugak Curry with tonkatsu, plus ₩3,500 sweet potato cheese croquettes. Sarugak20 is a filling, good-value lunch spot. ## Good to know - **Special Curry**: ₩12,000 - **Sarugak Curry**: ₩12,000 - **Sweet Potato Cheese Croquettes**: 2 pieces, ₩3,500 - **Frozen curry**: Cream, spinach, miso, and beef curry; around ₩10,000 - **Refills**: Ask for more rice or sauce if needed - **Water**: Self-service - **Seating**: Counter tables, regular tables, and bar seats *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* I was craving curry for lunch in Jeonpo-dong, so while looking around, I visited Sarugak20, a well-known curry spot in Jeonpo-dong. Sarugak20, a great lunch place in Jeonpo, Busan. ![Visit photo of Sarugak20, a popular curry restaurant in Jeonpo-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-01-13v07-900.webp) ## Sarugak20 near the Jeonpo-dong Community Service Center Here is the entrance to Sarugak20, a popular curry restaurant in Jeonpo-dong~ It is close to the Jeonpo-dong Community Service Center.ᐟ.ᐟ ![Entrance to Sarugak20 in Jeonpo-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-02-1wj4l-900.webp) Before going in, I gave the menu board at the entrance a quick look ⋆ฺ｡*:･ ![Menu board at the Sarugak20 entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-03-iboii-900.webp) ![Sarugak20 entrance menu information](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-04-yfbvc-900.webp) This is the second location of Moru Sikdang, the formerly famous curry restaurant in Jeonpo-dong. I never visited Moru Sikdang myself, but it had such a reputation that many people may know Moru Sikdang even if they do not know Sarugak20. Lots of people were sad when Moru Sikdang disappeared, but now you can head to Sarugak20 instead 🫪💜💜 ![Information about Sarugak20 and Moru Sikdang](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-05-ua5lw-900.webp) ## Can you take home frozen curry? I also loved that frozen curry is available to take home. There are four kinds: cream curry, spinach curry, miso curry, and beef curry. They are all priced around ₩10,000 haha 🍀💚💚💚💚 When you make curry at home, you have to prep all the vegetables and it takes quite a while to cook, so I think it is so nice that you can simply buy it ready-made 👍👍👍 ![Frozen curry takeaway information at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-06-y5jb0-900.webp) ## Inside Sarugak20 > Inside Sarugak20 ![Interior space at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-07-1yhvi-900.webp) ![Tables inside Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-08-1sl1n-900.webp) There are counter tables and regular tables, haha.

Sarugak20 is a cozy, warm curry spot in Jeonpo-dong *̥❄︎‧˚₊✧*｡*̥❄︎‧˚₊✧*｡ It seems just right for couples, coworkers, or friends: the prices are not burdensome, and the atmosphere is lovely too, haha. ![Wood interior at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-09-173wc-900.webp) ![Cozy interior at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-10-vnbpk-900.webp) ![Regular table seating at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-11-1qvlo-900.webp) ![Counter table seating at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-12-19qr3-900.webp) There are bar seats too. ![Bar seating at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-13-4i8n5-900.webp) As soon as we sat down, they brought out spoons and cups; the water was self-service. ![Spoons and cups at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-14-1q73u-900.webp) ## Special Curry with a soft egg, sausage, and cheese Personally, I really enjoyed the Special Curry. It comes with a soft egg, sausage, and cheese, and it was so, so good. It is only ₩12,000 too—isn't that such a reasonable price? If you run short on rice or sauce, you can ask for a refill. ![Special Curry with a soft egg, sausage, and cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-15-h8z8q-883.webp) It also comes with kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) as a side dish. ![Sarugak20 Special Curry with kkakdugi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-16-11yih-900.webp) Sarugak20's Special Curry is a popular menu item, so please do try it haha. ![Sarugak20's popular Special Curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-17-1o298-900.webp) ## Sarugak Curry for dipping tonkatsu Next came the Sarugak Curry. It is ₩12,000, and curry plus tonkatsu (Japanese pork cutlet) for dipping is just unbeatable, right? ☆⋆₊° ☆⋆₊° ☾ ♡⋆‘ ・ ₊ ° * ゜・♡ I ordered it because Sarugak Curry includes tonkatsu and cabbage, so it felt like a good way to get both something tasty and something wholesome. Both curries had their own charm, so it was hard to pick a winner. .ᐟ.ᐟ ![Sarugak Curry with tonkatsu and cabbage](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-18-2pv4p-900.webp) ![Sarugak Curry at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-19-19640-900.webp) ## Freshly fried sweet potato cheese croquettes Sweet potato cheese croquettes: 2 pieces for ₩3,500. They lay cabbage underneath, and these croquettes have a sweet potato base with cheese inside. They fry them right in front of you, so you get to eat them piping hot. Personally, I recommend dining in rather than taking the curry away, because you can eat the freshly made, hot curry right away. ![Sweet potato cheese croquettes and cabbage](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-20-1sl0g-900.webp) The sweet potato cheese croquettes—gocheeke—please, please order them. They are such a special treat, seriously⠂⠁⠈⠂⠄⠄⠂⠁⠁⠂⠄⠄⠂⠁⠁⠂ ![Sweet potato cheese croquettes at Sarugak20](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-21-lzf6y-900.webp) I will explain with the photo instead of words. Scraping every last bit clean, hahaha. ![A meal with every last bit of curry scraped clean](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette-22-16tbl-900.webp) ## A filling curry meal for lunch in Jeonpo-dong I had such a delicious, satisfying meal at Sarugak20. When I visited at lunch, lots of people were coming and going, hehe. It seems perfect for a lunch meal that is simple yet filling, haha. For lunch in Jeonpo-dong, the prices are very reasonable and not expensive, so it does not feel burdensome at all. I recommend this curry spot for everyone—men and women alike. ## Where it is - Sarugak20 (사루각20) - B1, 78 Seojeon-ro 68beon-gil, Busanjin-gu, Busan, South Korea (부산광역시 부산진구 서전로68번길 78 지하1층) - 부산광역시 부산진구 서전로68번길 78 지하1층 - 35.1542862, 129.0671581 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%AC%EB%A3%A8%EA%B0%8120/@35.1542862,129.0671581,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@portside-rice-bowl/jeonpo-curry-sweetpotato-croquette/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
