The writer ordered the jjusam set for 2 with drink at 35,000 won in medium spice, and the staff stir-fried the octopus at the table, followed by cheese steamed egg, self-made rice balls and fried rice at the end, all enjoyed at an outdoor table.

There's a menu board out front too, so you can check the menu before you go in👍 ![Menu board in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-02-1ci6w-814.webp) ![Entrance of Jju Baksa Magok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-03-dne78-900.webp) Inside there are about 8 four-person tables, so it seems great for work dinners, get-togethers or dates, and in weather like this, eating outside is just perfect, right‼️ They have outdoor terrace tables too, so you can enjoy it al fresco! There are a lot of flight attendants around Yangcheon Hyanggyo, and maybe that's why there were noticeably lots of pretty people around haha. Guess this is a spot that flight attendants come to a lot too hahaha ![Interior and outdoor terrace seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-04-1kjl9-900.webp) ![Tables inside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-05-fc5hm-900.webp) Not just flight attendants—plenty of famous celebrities must have come through too, because the walls are covered in autographs! Officially a legit good restaurant👍 On top of that, the kitchen is open so you can watch the food being made, which made me trust it even more. ![Autographs on the wall and the open kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-06-105d7-966.webp) ![Open kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-07-r13vl-966.webp) ![Autographs on the restaurant wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-08-s1zgn-966.webp) ![Inside the webfoot octopus restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-09-adftg-966.webp) ![Kitchen of the webfoot octopus restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-10-ciqvd-966.webp) ![Interior of Jju Baksa](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-11-dikg0-966.webp) ![Side dishes served with the webfoot octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-12-l5qtg-966.webp) ## Ordering the jjusam set for 2 with drink The sides come out as the perfect match for jjukkumi👏 Perilla leaves, pickled radish wraps, cheonsachae (glass noodle salad), bean sprouts, corn butter and more, all great for eating alongside the spicy octopus. ![Perilla leaves and pickled radish wraps on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-13-wy03e-849.webp) I ordered the set menu with drink🤗 Jjusam (webfoot octopus with pork belly) for 2 = steamed egg + self-made rice balls + corn butter + 15 g flying fish roe + 1 drink. All that for ₩35,000—great value, right!? You can pick mild, medium or spicy, and just in case, I went with medium! 🤗 ![Jjusam set for 2 with drink](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-14-1r39c-966.webp) While waiting for the food to cook, time to squish together some rice balls! ![Making self-made rice balls](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-15-1ds6y-900.webp) The cheese steamed egg was fluffy and soft with a generous layer of cheese on top, so rich and savory🧀🥚 Eating it with the spicy octopus tamed the heat too—great combo👍 ![Cheese steamed egg on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-16-183xl-900.webp) ![Cheese steamed egg and webfoot octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-17-1razb-839.webp) ## Medium-spicy jjukkumi stir-fried by the staff The staff stir-fry all the jjukkumi for you until it's ready to eat, so it's really easy! ![Staff stir-frying the webfoot octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-18-kgc56-900.webp) ![Webfoot octopus being cooked](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-19-ombxk-794.webp) So while we chatted and nibbled on the side dishes, before we knew it, it was deliciously done haha ![Finished webfoot octopus spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-20-ud5kt-900.webp) I ordered medium, and it was spicy but with the savory depth intact—really tasty. Put pickled radish on a perilla leaf, add the octopus and flying fish roe, then a little peanut sauce, and it's seriously heavenly⭐️ ![Webfoot octopus eaten in a perilla leaf wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-21-1qnp3-966.webp) The portion was bigger than I expected, which I loved! The outdoor seating is roomy too, so enjoying it outside on a nice day was just great!! ![Outdoor terrace tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-22-2aex9-837.webp) ## Finishing with fried rice After polishing off the jjukkumi, the finale is of course fried rice!!! The sauce is so good that the fried rice at the end was a real treat too🤗 ![Fried rice to finish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-23-1ecfn-849.webp) ![Fried rice and after-meal treats](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa-24-13dv4-900.webp) There are candies for dessert, and thoughtfully, hair ties and dental floss too, which was a nice touch! If you want spicy food at an outdoor table, I recommend Jju Baksa near Yangcheon Hyanggyo Station👍 The portions are generous and the outdoor tables are roomy, so you can properly enjoy tasty food along with that open-air terrace vibe‼️ ## Where it is - Jju Baksa Magok Branch (쭈박사 마곡점) - 23 Magokdong-ro 10-gil, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (Daebang DMCity 2 Officetel, 1st floor, Unit 130) / 서울특별시 강서구 마곡동로10길 23 대방디엠시티2차오피스텔 1층 130호 쭈박사 마곡점 - 서울특별시 강서구 마곡동로10길 23 대방디엠시티2차오피스텔 1층 130호 쭈박사 마곡점 - 37.5689322, 126.8391317 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%AD%88%EB%B0%95%EC%82%AC%20%EB%A7%88%EA%B3%A1%EC%A0%90/@37.5689322,126.8391317,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-vanity-counter/yangcheonhyanggyo-jjukkumi-yajang-jjubaksa/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
