Shops between Hapjeong and Sangsu tend to change pretty often, and this one seemed fairly newly opened too. ![Visiting Champpoppo Jjokgalbi in Hapjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-01-1g1pu-1200.webp) Inside, there are about 10 four-person tables, with round tables fitted with overhead exhaust hoods. ![Tables inside Champpoppo Jjokgalbi Hapjeong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-02-s8ys6-966.webp) ![Round tables and overhead exhaust hoods](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-03-1iv7k-966.webp) ## The pasta set and banchan The menu unusually has pasta, and since we were hungry, we ordered the pasta set. The jjokgalbi (pork ribs) are relatively affordable, but your first order has to be at least three servings; the set looked like a good combination. ![Champpoppo Jjokgalbi menu and pasta set](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-04-3b5ei-966.webp) ![Pork rib set order](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-05-18bvn-966.webp) Once you order, they set out all these banchan (Korean side dishes) like this. ![Basic side dishes served after ordering pork ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-06-1h86z-966.webp) There were three sauces: a spicy sauce, garlic sauce, and curry powder. ![Spicy sauce, garlic sauce, and curry powder](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-07-8bycw-966.webp) They also brought out corn cheese with the charcoal. ![Corn cheese served with charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-08-1vd0f-966.webp) They said the ribs are par-cooked as soon as they are ordered, so it would take a little time to bring them out. In the meantime, they gave us pork skin and potatoes to snack on. It is a small thing, but I really like touches this thoughtful. It was nice to have a drink while waiting too. ![Pork skin and potatoes served while waiting for par-cooked ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-09-v1a3b-966.webp) And there was chicken porridge too..! They really give you quite a lot of different things as basic sides. ![Chicken porridge served as a basic side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-10-f3ii8-966.webp) I immediately knocked back a drink. The chicken porridge was nicely seasoned and tasty too. ![Chicken porridge enjoyed with alcohol](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-11-y8fch-966.webp) Meanwhile, the pork skin turned beautifully golden, and the potatoes got a little charred,, I tend to prefer them cooked about that much. ![Golden grilled pork skin and potatoes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-12-1sase-966.webp) ## A great tip: wrap pork ribs with cream pasta Our three servings of pork ribs arrived. Think about four to five bones per serving? A staff member came over and explained that we should grill them with the bones facing down. ![Pork ribs grilled with the bones facing down](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-13-j1wql-966.webp) We grilled them up deliciously right away, and Sojjang and I happily gnawed away at them together. ![Grilled pork ribs ready to gnaw off the bone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-14-gc5g0-966.webp) As we were eating, the cream pasta arrived. Pasta at a pork rib place was a combination I had literally never seen before, but I was surprised by how good the quality was. ![Cream pasta in the pork rib set](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-15-1gn4e-966.webp) This was Sojjang's great tip: cut the pork ribs with scissors, then wrap them up with the cream pasta like this. Apparently it is delicious. ![Pork ribs paired with cream pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-16-1yagl-966.webp) As we were getting close to finishing, Sujjang gave the cream pasta a little charcoal aroma and mixed it with the corn cheese. Bread grilled over the charcoal is seriously delicious too. I recommend it. ![Cream pasta with charcoal aroma and corn cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-17-rjeik-966.webp) ![Bread grilled over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-18-1mhd3-966.webp) ## Finishing with honeycomb pork skin and yeolmu kimchi noodles You cannot skip pork skin, basically the dessert course at a Korean barbecue restaurant, right? The pork skin they gave us to eat while waiting at the start was tasty, so we ordered another portion. ![A bowl of yeolmu kimchi cold noodle soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-19-byrf9-966.webp) *Yeolmu kimchi cold noodle soup, ₩7,000* We also ordered kimchi-mari-guksu (cold noodle soup with kimchi) to settle our stomachs as things started to feel a little rich. A cool broth really does make for a clean finish. ![Information about the review-event offer](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set-20-zovsk-966.webp) These days, I guess it is becoming a trend for review events to provide items according to the number of people, in this kind of format. ## Good-value pork ribs in Hapjeong This was a good-value pork rib restaurant in Hapjeong. The Hapjeong, Sangsu, and Hongdae triangle is hugely popular with both foreigners and young people, so places there tend to be expensive with small portions. But Champpoppo Jjokgalbi Hapjeong Branch gives you lots of basic snacks, including chicken porridge, corn cheese, and a taster of pork skin, which feels nice; at ₩14,000 per serving, it is easy to enjoy without feeling burdened. That said, the marinade is not very spicy, so for the cream pasta set, I think ordering the Buldak-style flavor could be good too. Around Hapjeong, I recommend this good-value pork rib place for dinner and drinks as a first stop for two, or as a perfect second or third stop for three to four people! ## Where it is - Champpoppo Jjokgalbi Hapjeong Branch (참뽀뽀쪽갈비 합정점) - 77 Yanghwa-ro 6-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 마포구 양화로6길 77 1층 - 37.5485844, 126.9185489 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B0%B8%EB%BD%80%EB%BD%80%EC%AA%BD%EA%B0%88%EB%B9%84%20%ED%95%A9%EC%A0%95%EC%A0%90/@37.5485844,126.9185489,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-one-glass/hapjeong-ribs-cream-pasta-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
