Today’s Sushi brought 10 pieces with thick fish and an extra-long eel nigiri, while the Raon King Pork Cutlet was hilariously basin-sized. Verdict: a thoroughly satisfying meal, from sushi to cutlet. ## Good to know - **Address**: 23 Aemakgol-gil 11beon-gil, Chuncheon-si, Gangwon State, South Korea (1F) - **Today's Sushi**: ₩21,000 - **Mini Udon**: ₩3,500 - **Raon Pork Cutlet (Raon King Pork Cutlet)**: ₩12,000 - **Hours**: 11:30–21:30 - **Break time**: Tue–Fri 15:00–16:30; none on Sat–Sun - **Regular closure**: Every Monday - **Seating**: Group seating available - **Parking**: Street parking in the alley; public parking lot five minutes away *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* For days now, my husband had been singing “Sushi~ sushi~ 🍣” until my ears practically developed calluses! He was mooping around like a starving polar bear who hadn’t had sushi, so today, at last, we set out to complete our sushi mission! Just in time, our dutiful son and daughter (?) announced they were off to a library event and vanished. A couple with a moment of freedom, acquired! But is this what kids in upper elementary school are like? They don’t want to hang out with their parents and just coolly head off, right...? I’m a little sad, but also secretly thrilled—what is this strange feeling? 🤣 ## Raon Sushi in Chuncheon’s Aemakgol: location and parking Today’s target for us was Raon Sushi (라온스시), known by word of mouth as a great sushi spot in Chuncheon’s Aemakgol! It is near the National Museum of Chuncheon, so it is really easy to find, too! ![Raon Sushi’s location near the National Museum of Chuncheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-01-7j8an-900.webp) Because it is in a food alley, parking in the alley can be a little tight! If there is no spot, don’t panic—just park comfortably at the public lot five minutes away. Bye-bye, parking stress~ 👋 ![Guide to the public parking lot near Raon Sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-02-5eq7i-900.webp) ## Group seating and a wide-ranging menu Once we stepped inside, the nicely spaced tables made it feel very pleasant and comfortable! There was also separate group seating, perfect for gatherings. ![Table seating inside Raon Sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-03-yx2dg-900.webp) ![Raon Sushi with group seating available](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-04-1ezb2-900.webp) It sits right across from Seven Eleven in the middle of the Aemakgol food alley, and there were visitors of all ages: solo diners seeking a good meal, families with children, and sweet couples on dates. ![Raon Sushi in the Aemakgol food alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-05-zlfym-900.webp) ![Raon Sushi’s varied menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-06-rm6g0-900.webp) Looking over the menu, it was variety itself—not only sushi, but sashimi, nabe (Japanese hot pot), pork cutlets, rice bowls, ramen, and chicken! At dinner, sashimi or chicken with sake or a chilled highball would be ahh... I could just tell this would make an excellent Chuncheon drinking spot 🍺✨ ## Ordering Today’s Sushi and the Raon King Pork Cutlet - Today's Sushi: ₩21,000 - Mini Udon: ₩3,500 - Raon Pork Cutlet (Raon King Pork Cutlet): ₩12,000 My husband ordered the Today’s Sushi he had been singing about, plus mini udon, while I strangely was not craving raw food that day, so I ordered the Raon Pork Cutlet! Me, ordering pork cutlet at a sushi restaurant... 😜 And the owner even gave us an adorable Double Choco Crack Cookie on the house—such an angelic detail! 🍪💖 ![Today’s Sushi and pork cutlet order at Raon Sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-07-pdrkv-900.webp) They did not serve sushi made in advance; they started preparing everything as soon as we ordered! Even so, they were quicker with their hands than I expected, and our food came out in no time ⚡ ![Food prepared after ordering at Raon Sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-08-ct0bs-1200.webp) ## Thick fish and extra-long eel sushi At last, Today’s Sushi arrived! It was arranged so neatly and solemnly on a long wooden board, with 10 substantial pieces including salmon, flounder, tuna, and eel! 🍣 ![Sushi with salmon, flounder, tuna, and eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-09-144mh-900.webp) ![Sushi served on a long wooden board](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-10-uqvul-900.webp) The fish was so thick and large—it looked incredibly appetizing. My husband’s review was that each piece melted softly in his mouth, haha. They also gave us plenty of wasabi separately, which was great for adjusting it to our tastes. Above all, both my husband and I were left open-mouthed by the overwhelming length and look of the eel sushi 😲! ![Impressively long eel sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-11-jev6c-900.webp) ![The look of Raon Sushi’s eel sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-12-rf3lf-900.webp) ![Thick fish and eel sushi assortment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-13-1ldfh-900.webp) ## The washbasin-sized Raon King Pork Cutlet First we were stunned by the eel, then came the second huge laugh at the size of my pork cutlet, haha. Well, I suppose you do not earn a reputation for pork cutlet in Aemakgol for nothing... This king pork cutlet was practically washbasin-sized!! ![Washbasin-sized Raon King Pork Cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-14-1gpnx-900.webp) ![Crisp king pork cutlet with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-15-ujril-900.webp) It was crisp on the outside and came generously covered in a sweet, savory sauce, but the size was so unreal that I shamelessly asked my husband to eat half of it. 🤣 Instead, I polished off my beloved cabbage salad—and very efficiently cleared every last bit of my husband’s cabbage salad, too! 🥗 ![A meal of cabbage salad and pork cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-16-15nbk-900.webp) ## Even a complimentary chocolate cookie I felt as though I might burst, but everyone knows there is a separate stomach for dessert, right? 😉 We happily munched through the sweet, crisp chocolate cookie the owner gave us on the house and finished a very satisfying meal! ![Complimentary Double Choco Crack Cookie](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-17-15e3o-900.webp) ![Sweet, crisp chocolate cookie enjoyed after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-18-153gl-900.webp) ![Dessert to finish a meal at Raon Sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet-19-o1m2t-900.webp) Raon Sushi had wonderfully fresh, thick fish on its sushi, and even the unexpected pork cutlet was perfect! I highly recommend it for lunch in Aemakgol, and I also strongly recommend it as a Chuncheon spot for a drink in the evening 👍 ## Where it is - Raon Sushi (라온스시) - 23 Aemakgol-gil 11beon-gil, Chuncheon-si, Gangwon State, South Korea (1F) - 강원특별자치도 춘천시 애막골길11번길 23 1층 - 37.8664291, 127.7523716 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%9D%BC%EC%98%A8%EC%8A%A4%EC%8B%9C/@37.8664291,127.7523716,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@side-dish-stop/chuncheon-aemakgol-sushi-porkcutlet/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
