There's no separate break time, and takeout is available too! Solo dining is also fine, so I went by myself :) ## Inside Ganghan Sushi and how the table is set Self parking registration is available at the store entrance. Don't forget to register your parking after eating! High chairs are also ready, so it seems like a good place to bring kids too! ![Parking registration sign at the entrance of Ganghan Sushi Cheonan Buldang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-04-1s9rx-966.webp) ![Extra waiting chairs placed by the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-05-i2mub-966.webp) There are extra chairs by the entrance so you can sit and wait for a bit.

The atmosphere was clean and quiet too. The inside of Ganghan Sushi Cheonan Buldang Branch isn't huge, but...! Customers kept coming in steadily haha ![Table with napkins, soy sauce dish, and paper cups](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-11-1fe8i-966.webp) Napkins, small soy sauce dishes, tableware, and paper cups are all right there at the table! Check below and you'll find the utensil holder. ![Sign explaining the ₩500 receipt review event menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-12-1bsz5-966.webp) ### The 500 won receipt review event lineup at Ganghan Sushi They're also running a receipt review event!

The mini udon was great for filling up a bit before the sushi arrived :) Even as a 'mini,' it actually had quite a lot of noodles. ![Mini udon with a generous amount of noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-15-1ll13-966.webp) Soy sauce, pickled radish, and ginger are all right there on the table, so you can scoop some onto your plate while you wait for the sushi. There were a lot of customers, so I think I waited around 10 minutes. ## How was the 23,000 won 12-piece omakase sushi set? The sushi looked incredibly fresh. ![A full plate of the 12-piece omakase sushi at Ganghan Sushi Cheonan Buldang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-16-nxgdu-966.webp) The raw fish wasn't cold and the rice wasn't hard, so it was easy to eat! There's no wasabi tucked inside the sushi, so you have to add it yourself. ![Omakase sushi eaten with wasabi added separately](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-17-18rcy-966.webp) Kimchi came out as a side dish alongside the sushi too. The tuna and salmon sushi felt especially delicious :) The abalone came with its innards, and the yukhoe (beef tartare) sushi was topped with gamtae (a type of seaweed) :) ![Close-up of tuna and salmon sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-18-10tc7-m-966.webp) ![Abalone sushi served with its innards](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-19-2nok1-966.webp) ![Yukhoe sushi topped with gamtae seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-20-11r6s-966.webp) ![A single piece from the omakase sushi set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-21-1wf0p-966.webp) Next time I'd like to try adding some items à la carte too haha ## Adding 3 pieces of fried shrimp to the omakase set The 3 pieces of fried shrimp came out freshly fried, so they were piping hot. Dipped in the accompanying sauce and eaten alongside the sushi, they went together nicely. ![Three pieces of fried shrimp served with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura-22-sd1hs-966.webp) If you're looking for a good sushi restaurant in Cheonan's Buldang-dong, be sure to check out Ganghan Sushi Cheonan Buldang Branch! ## Where it is - Ganghan Sushi Cheonan Buldang Branch (강한초밥 천안불당점) - 111, 67-12 Buldang21-ro, Seobuk-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea - 충청남도 천안시 서북구 불당21로 67-12 111호 - 36.8136358, 127.1083873 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B0%95%ED%95%9C%EC%B4%88%EB%B0%A5%20%EC%B2%9C%EC%95%88%EB%B6%88%EB%8B%B9%EC%A0%90/@36.8136358,127.1083873,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@sungsimdang-side-alley/gangan-sushi-cheonan-buldang-shrimp-tempura/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
