While looking for lunch in Gwacheon, I visited Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch (비비삼 과천본점). It is near Exit 11 of Government Complex Gwacheon Station and is on the building's first floor. Its mostly white exterior and red-lettered sign made it easy to find. ![Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch exterior near Government Complex station](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-01-43ghv-966.webp) There was also a public parking lot behind the restaurant, and I used the public lot in front of Grace Hotel. It was fairly spacious and convenient, and the restaurant was close by once I crossed the street. The original post lists the hours as 11:00–22:00. ## Were the seating and self-service bar convenient? The restaurant had only recently opened when I visited, so the interior was neat. The seating was fairly spacious, making for a comfortable meal, and I thought it would also be fine for a solo lunch. ![Neat interior and dining seats at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-02-16z1k-966.webp) ![Fairly spacious seating area at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-03-14m93-966.webp) It is introduced as a restaurant specializing in torim bibimbap, a style in which rice is rinsed or warmed in broth before mixing. Baekkimchi (white kimchi) and clear soup were set out at the self-service bar. ![Dining area and self-service bar at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-04-5c1ns-966.webp) ![Baekkimchi and clear soup self-service bar at Bibisam](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-05-7i7et-966.webp) The bibimbap came with sesame oil as standard, and I could add more at the self-service bar. If I needed more gochujang, I could ask a staff member. The baekkimchi and clear soup tasted clean, so I went back for more a few times. ![Self-service bar and interior atmosphere at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-06-z6dxf-966.webp) ![Traditional-style interior at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-07-16t72-966.webp) The traditional-style lighting also suited the bibimbap restaurant atmosphere. Being close to the station, I thought it would be convenient for nearby office workers stopping in for lunch. ![Information area inside Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-08-djr0g-966.webp) ## How much were the bibimbap dishes and sets I ordered? ![Bibimbap menu information at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-6dfe/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-09-dl77z-1200.webp) The prices I recorded for the dishes I ordered are below.

The Hwangdeung torim vegetable bibimbap had generous amounts of bean sprouts, seasoned shredded radish, lettuce, and more. ![Hwangdeung torim vegetable bibimbap set at Bibisam](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-11-ootco-966.webp) ![Vegetable bibimbap with bean sprouts and seasoned radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-12-10rwv-966.webp) I topped it with the prepared seaweed flakes. With its variety of vegetables, it was a neat and filling meal. ![Hwangdeung torim vegetable bibimbap with seaweed flakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-13-8oyqm-966.webp) ![Bibisam vegetable bibimbap and set accompaniments](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-14-3iwyt-966.webp) For this set, I could choose between Korean pork and Korean beef griddle-cooked tteokgalbi (grilled minced-meat patty). I paid an extra ₩1,000 for the Korean beef option. It came with tteokgalbi and an egg, and the tteokgalbi was good alongside the bibimbap. Considering what was included, I was satisfied with the price. ![Side dish served with a Bibisam bibimbap meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-15-1odds-966.webp) ### How was the mini Namdo cockle dish from the review event? When I visited, I joined a Naver receipt-review event and had mini Namdo cockles for ₩500. The seasoning was right for my taste, and I liked their springy, chewy texture. ![Mini Namdo cockles tried through Bibisam's review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-16-qyto5-966.webp) ## How were the ingredients and texture of the stone-pot octopus bibimbap? The stone-pot octopus bibimbap had generous amounts of octopus and flying-fish roe. ![Stone-pot octopus bibimbap at Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-17-nxves-966.webp) ![Stone-pot bibimbap with octopus and flying-fish roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-18-bfm35-966.webp) The generous amount of ingredients made it satisfying for the price. Sprinkling on seaweed flakes added a nutty flavor, which went well with the tender octopus. ![Bibisam stone-pot bibimbap with generous octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-19-axvhp-966.webp) ![Stone-pot octopus bibimbap served with seaweed flakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-20-28eao-966.webp) ## How did I eat the stone-pot albap set? The stone-pot albap, a rice dish with flying-fish roe, was topped generously with roe. For this set as well, I added ₩1,000 and chose the Korean beef griddle-cooked tteokgalbi. ![Bibisam stone-pot albap set topped with flying-fish roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-21-131ew-966.webp) I added the egg that came with the set to the albap and mixed it in. ![Stone-pot albap mixed with the egg from the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-22-1qx89-760.webp) With seaweed flakes on top, it was nutty and mild. Being able to eat the tteokgalbi and egg together made it filling. ![Bibisam stone-pot albap meal and accompanying dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-23-2nobu-966.webp) ![Side dishes and seasonings served with Bibisam bibimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-24-klss6-966.webp) I went back for more clear soup and baekkimchi, and asked a staff member for extra gochujang. The generous bibimbap ingredients and neat accompaniments stayed with me. It felt like a good place to stop for a filling Korean lunch in Gwacheon. ## Where it is - Bibisam Gwacheon Main Branch (비비삼 과천본점) (비비삼 과천본점) - 10-13 Saesulmak-gil, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (1F, Unit 101) - 경기도 과천시 새술막길 10-13 1층 101호 - 37.4286993, 126.990907 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B9%84%EB%B9%84%EC%82%BC%20%EA%B3%BC%EC%B2%9C%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.4286993,126.990907,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@restaurant-by-restaurant/bibisam-gwacheon-bibimbap-lunch-6dfe/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
