This visit covered osam-duruchigi (stir-fried squid and pork belly), ₩11,000, and a potato cheese pancake, ₩9,000, served with self-serve side dishes, a complimentary fried egg and injeolmi (sweet rice cake) ice cream for dessert. The sweet-spicy sauce kept the white rice coming, so Sammi-jip works well for a meal alone. ## Good to know - **Osam-duruchigi (squid and pork belly stir-fry)**: ₩11,000 - **Sammi kimchi platter + doenjang (soybean paste) stew**: ₩73,000 - **Kimchi stew**: ₩10,000 - **Potato cheese pancake**: ₩9,000 - **Minari (water parsley) pancake**: ₩9,000 - **Injeolmi (sweet rice cake) ice cream**: ₩5,000 (free with the receipt review event) - **Hours**: Daily 10:30 AM–10:30 PM - **Parking**: 4–5 cars in front of the restaurant - **Solo dining**: Single-portion menu available - **Price reference**: ₩11,000 ≈ $8.2 · ₩9,000 ≈ $6.7 · ₩73,000 ≈ $54 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 5, 2026* ![Exterior of Sammi-jip in Cheongna](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-01-19z19-1200.webp) It really felt like fall had arrived today!!! The weather was so nice I wanted to get out, so I went looking for good restaurants in Cheongna and ended up at Sammi-jip's Cheongna branch! There are 4-5 parking spots right in front of the restaurant, so no worries about parking :) ![Entrance and signage at Sammi-jip Cheongna branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-02-fis8k-900.webp) ## Sammi-jip Cheongna hours and parking Sammi-jip's Cheongna branch operates daily from 10:30 AM to 10:30 PM, with 4-5 parking spots in front.

They also gave one fried egg per person as a free extra!! 👏 👏 👏 ## Osam-duruchigi, ₩11,000: squid and pork belly grilled in the kitchen Sammi-jip's osam-duruchigi (₩11,000) comes out already grilled and ready to eat. Here it is! Being able to dig in right away was so nice!! 👍 ![Sammi-jip's osam-duruchigi served already grilled](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-11-powc3-900.webp) The second it arrived, that spicy-sweet sauce smell hit me and really got my appetite going!! 😃 First off, the squid was so plump and tender — passed the test! It wasn't chewy in a tough way, more bouncy and springy, and the pork belly had just the right amount of fat, getting more savory with every bite! Eating the two together, this place felt like heaven~~~~ 🌟 ![Close-up of plump squid and pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-12-6fgg6-900.webp) ![A plate of osam-duruchigi coated in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-13-uc5z4-900.webp) The sauce is honestly insane... it's not heavy or cloying, just spicy with a subtle sweetness trailing behind, so you keep reaching for more hahaha ![Osam-duruchigi piled on white rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-14-gwzro-900.webp) ![A spoonful of stir-fry eaten with fried egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-15-bbytl-900.webp) Piled onto plain white rice with a bite of fried egg — ahhhh I want it again already ㅜㅜㅜㅜ ![Visual of Sammi-jip's potato cheese pancake](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-16-ufxbn-900.webp) ## Potato cheese pancake, ₩9,000: the green chili is the kick Sammi-jip's side dish, the potato cheese pancake, is ₩9,000 and comes with pepper mixed in. Here's the side dish — look at that visual hahahaha, look at all that cheese hahaha But here's the kick — potato and cheese alone could get greasy, but they added pepper in there? That's the trick that makes it totally addictive! ![Cross-section of the potato cheese pancake with stretchy cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-17-11ks9-900.webp) ![A piece of potato cheese pancake with pepper inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-18-bn8sr-900.webp) The savory potato flavor mixed with the salty, soft richness of the cheese was more addictive than I expected!!! And it was even better warm, when the cheese was melted soft ❤️ ![Table with osam-duruchigi and potato cheese pancake together](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-19-10l2c-900.webp) Alternating a spicy bite of osam-duruchigi with a savory bite of potato cheese pancake made everything taste even better! 🍯 ![Zero-sugar cola ordered with the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-20-sf87n-900.webp) Also ordered a zero-sugar cola to cleanse the palate! ![Sammi-jip's side menu item, injeolmi ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-21-1ln4r-900.webp) ## Injeolmi ice cream for dessert, free with the receipt review event Sammi-jip's injeolmi (sweet rice cake powder) ice cream is ₩5,000, but you can get it free through their receipt review event. After finishing the meal I noticed they sell injeolmi ice cream as a side — my kid saw the visual and wanted it so badly I ordered it right away~~~ And wow, this was amazing too... generously loaded with vanilla ice cream and injeolmi, truly the best combo! Perfect for dessert! ![Injeolmi and vanilla ice cream dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-22-1b4y4-900.webp) You can get this free through the receipt review event, so don't order it separately like I did — write a review and get it free!!! hahaha ![Emptied plate of osam-duruchigi](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-23-18pi9-900.webp) ![Table at Sammi-jip after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi-24-my86r-900.webp) ## Is one order enough food for a solo diner? Eating the osam-duruchigi and potato cheese pancake together, the portions were big enough that we couldn't even get to fried rice. It all tasted so good I cleaned my plate! I wanted to finish with fried rice but the portions were bigger than I thought and I felt like I'd burst, so I couldn't make it that far....ㅠㅠ Next time for sure!!!! This Cheongna restaurant, Sammi-jip, is also famous for its grilled pork belly! Next time I'm definitely going for the pork belly! ## Where it is - Sammi-jip (삼미집) - 18 Cheongnakaeneol-ro 233beon-gil, 1F, Seohae-gu, Incheon, South Korea - 인천광역시 서해구 청라커낼로233번길 18 1층 - 37.5292096, 126.6428885 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%BC%EB%AF%B8%EC%A7%91/@37.5292096,126.6428885,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@quiet-cafe-stops/cheongna-samigip-ojingeo-samgyeop-duruchigi/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
