At this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot you can use a self-bar! There's a big rice cooker with black rice made from healthy new-crop rice.

It was the dish I loved so much on my visit last year that I'd already decided on soft tofu jjamppong rice in my mind before even coming to this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot haha. It's hearty but not aggressively spicy, so I felt comfortable in my stomach afterward. ![Black rice served alongside the soft tofu jjamppong rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-07-oa0k9-480.webp) It came with black rice, and instead of noodles you get protein from the soft tofu! If you want jjamppong even while watching your diet, don't hesitate — try the soft tofu jjamppong rice at this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot. ![Old-style Jijon jjajangmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-08-rmldq-480.webp) ## Jijon jjajang at 7,000 won for the 5th anniversary Jijon jjajang has the look and taste that reminds me of old-school jjajangmyeon. When I visited, jjajangmyeon was on sale for ₩7,000 to mark this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot's 5th anniversary! ![Jijon jjajangmyeon mixed with black bean sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-09-x6o2x-480.webp) It'd been such a long time since I had jjajangmyeon, and the jjajang sauce was so delicious! ![Jjajang rice made by spooning sauce over rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-10-1xri2-480.webp) I prefer rice to noodles, so I made it into jjajang rice and it was really delicious haha. ![Crispy fried Jijon sweet and sour pork (small)](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-11-165zk-480.webp) ## Jijon sweet and sour pork (small): sauce on the side on request Jijon sweet and sour pork (small) is the chef's recommended dish — crispy and savory. ![Sweet and sour pork served with sauce on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-12-91qxb-480.webp) You can have the sauce poured over or ask for it separately — I like to dip, so I asked for the sauce on the side! ![Cross-section of the sweet and sour pork's crispy coating](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-13-y8yu1-480.webp) The pork itself is so good that it's tasty even without sauce, ![A piece of pork dipped in sweet and sour sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-14-1h0vq-480.webp) and it's also really delicious paired with the onions and sauce that come alongside! ![Onions and sauce served with the sweet and sour pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-15-1bamt-480.webp) The Jijon sweet and sour pork also came with two pieces of fried sweet potato, and my husband said they were really delicious! ![Fried sweet potato served with the sweet and sour pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-16-1asp7-480.webp) ## Sweet and sour pork with soft tofu jjamppong rice: how they taste together Eating the sweet and sour pork and then having a bite of the hearty soft tofu jjamppong makes such a great combination! Last time too I visited this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot on a rainy day, and this time I came on a slightly overcast day again — maybe that's why the jjamppong felt even more delicious. ![Table set with sweet and sour pork and soft tofu jjamppong rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-17-t5cg4-480.webp) The soft tofu jjamppong rice at this Sinjung-dong jjamppong spot has a hearty-feeling broth but isn't actually spicy hot, so it's perfect for people who can't handle spicy food! ![A spoonful of soft tofu jjamppong broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-18-1xm4h-480.webp) The broth isn't harsh, so it's tasty just spooned up, and it's also really good poured over the black rice that comes with it! ![Black rice poured into the soft tofu jjamppong rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-19-pypjd-480.webp) There's also quite a lot of seafood in it, so eating it together gives a nice chewy texture too! ![Seafood ingredients inside the soft tofu jjamppong rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap/bucheon-sinjungdong-sundubu-jjamppong-bap-20-4mlcl-480.webp) The quail eggs in the soft tofu jjamppong really go well with it!!
