The 69,000-won-per-person summer course ran from a pea and sweet shrimp apple tart through Korean melon (chamoe) scallop salad, chogye cold pasta, corn soup and sous vide chicken breast steak to peach mousse cake and tomato granita. Between the summer produce and the low-lit black-and-gray room, Hado is a solid pick for an anniversary date. ## Good to know - **Summer course**: 69,000 won per person - **Basic course**: 45,000 won per person - **Main swap**: Sous vide chuck flap steak, 21,000 won extra - **Seating**: Bar seats in front of the open kitchen - **Parking**: Public parking lot in the building right next door - **Price reference**: ₩69,000 ≈ $49.5 · ₩45,000 ≈ $32.5 · ₩21,000 ≈ $15 (2026-09-20) *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* While hunting for an atmospheric course-dining spot in Haenggung-dong, Suwon, I ended up at Hado HADO. ![Hado HADO, a course-dining restaurant in Haenggung-dong, Suwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-01-129xz-900.webp) It felt like the kind of quiet place where you could really enjoy a course meal, so it seemed perfect for anyone searching for a Haenggung-dong date restaurant. ![Quiet interior view of Hado](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-02-1iw3m-708.webp) ## What Hado looks like inside, and where to sit The vibe practically overflows starting from the exterior ✨ ![Exterior of Hado restaurant on Hyanggyo-ro](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-03-ub55f-900.webp) The inside was just as sleek and calm, decorated mainly in black and gray. ![Hado's interior in black and gray tones](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-04-195ek-900.webp) There are also bar seats set up in front of the open kitchen, so you can watch the cooking happen right in front of you. ![Bar seats in front of Hado's open kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-05-gh1zf-900.webp) Overall it's low-lit and pretty quiet, which made it great for a slow meal for two — and with the atmosphere in mind, I'd definitely recommend it as an anniversary or Haenggung-dong date restaurant! ![Low-lit table seating at Hado](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-06-1q9lw-900.webp) ## Hado course prices: 69,000-won summer course, 45,000-won basic course Left - Summer course (₩69,000 per person) Right - Basic course (₩45,000 per person) ![Hado's summer course and basic course menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-07-avilf-827.webp) This time I had Hado's summer course. From starter to salad, pasta, soup, main, and dessert, the whole lineup was built around seasonal, summery flavors. ![Hado's summer course table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-08-7pmbx-900.webp) ## Starters: pea tart and sweet shrimp apple tart Pea tart & sweet shrimp apple tart The meal opened with two kinds of bite-sized tarts. ![Pea tart and sweet shrimp apple tart starters](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-09-dmbu7-900.webp) The pea tart screamed summer just from its bright green look. The pea's subtle sweetness and grassy flavor paired with the crisp tart shell for great texture too. ![Bite-sized pea tart](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-10-2xbfz-900.webp) The sweet shrimp apple tart felt a bit fresher — soft, sweet shrimp with crunchy apple made for a nice balance of sweetness and tang. As a first course, it was a light, appetite-opening bite. ![Close-up of sweet shrimp apple tart](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-11-1tvex-900.webp) ## Korean melon (chamoe) scallop salad Melon scallop salad Next up, the melon scallop salad, which really nailed the summer season. Thinly sliced melon and scallop came with herbs, and the plating alone was gorgeous ✨ ![Plating of melon scallop salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-12-k3qw4-900.webp) The melon's cool sweetness and the scallop's soft texture worked together more naturally than I expected. Not a combination you see often, so it stood out as one of the most memorable dishes of the summer course. ![Salad with melon, scallop and herbs](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-13-1b8gx-900.webp) ## Chogye cold pasta and corn soup Chogye cold pasta The dish that matched the "summer course" name best — chogye cold pasta. Pasta noodles and chicken sat in a clear, cool broth, like a twist on chogye guksu (cold chicken noodles in a tangy chilled broth). The refreshing, clean flavor went down easy even on a hot day. ![Chogye cold pasta in clear broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-14-3vn0h-900.webp) Corn soup Next came corn soup, served in a small bowl — smooth, nutty, with the corn's natural sweetness coming through. The corn kernel topping made for fun texture along the way. If the earlier dishes were cool and refreshing, the corn soup marked a slight shift in tone. ![Corn soup topped with corn kernels](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-15-wb617-900.webp) ## Main course: sous vide chicken breast steak Sous vide chicken breast steak For the main I went with the sous vide chicken breast steak. You can switch to the sous vide chuck flap steak for an extra ₩21,000! ![Hado's sous vide chicken breast steak main](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-16-bofe5-900.webp) Chicken breast usually makes me think of dry, chewy texture, but cooking it sous vide left the inside moist and tender. ![Sous vide chicken breast with grain topping and carrot sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-17-1t8vu-1200.webp) A generous crunchy grain topping on top gave a nice textural contrast with the soft chicken breast. The carrot sauce and roasted garlic were also delicious. It turned a plain chicken breast into a genuinely impressive main course. ![Roasted garlic and carrot sauce on the main plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-18-1offv-900.webp) ## Desserts: peach mousse cake and tomato granita Peach mousse cake After the main, a free dessert of peach mousse cake arrives. Soft mousse with a crunchy crumble — sweet yet light, it was great for clearing the palate after the main. ![Free dessert of peach mousse cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-19-jltif-900.webp) Tomato granita Last up, tomato granita. As the ice crystals melt away, a cool, refreshing flavor spreads, and the tomato's tang leaves your mouth feeling clean. A fitting way to close out the course 👍 ## Is Hado worth it, and where to park in Haenggung-dong ![Tomato granita closing the course](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-20-8w7so-m-900.webp) What impressed me about Hado's summer course was how ingredients that evoke summer — melon, chogye, corn, peach, tomato — were woven through the whole meal. The plating felt carefully considered for every single dish, which made it fun to photograph each course as it arrived, and combined with the calm interior and open-kitchen vibe, it's a great pick for a special occasion! If you're looking for a Haenggung-dong date restaurant that also nails the atmosphere, I really recommend this place! For parking, just use the public parking lot in the building right next door! ![Table at Hado after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-21-10jwl-900.webp) ## Where it is - Hado (하도) - 138 Hyanggyo-ro, 1st floor, Paldal-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 수원시 팔달구 향교로 138 1층 하도 - 37.2730549, 127.0150466 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%98%EB%8F%84/@37.2730549,127.0150466,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@pyeongtaek-late-spoon/hado-suwon-haenggung-summer-course-9c9e/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
