I shared 36-hour-aged butadon, spicy butadon, and soboro galbi rice; the standard aged butadon was the better choice for me because I do not handle spice well. ## Good to know - **Location**: 2nd Floor, 78 Ihwayeodae-gil, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, South Korea - **Access**: Introduced as about a 2-minute walk from Sinchon Station Exit 1 and about a 5-minute walk from Ewha Womans University Station - **Order and prices**: 36-hour-aged butadon ₩9,500; 36-hour-aged spicy butadon ₩10,000; two soboro heaping galbi rice bowls ₩19,000; two canned soft drinks ₩5,000 - **Ordering**: Contactless ordering via a tablet at each table - **Conveniences**: Side dishes, soup, and extra rice available at the self-service bar; takeout available - **Hours notice**: At the time of the original post: Mon–Sat 10:30 AM–8:30 PM; break 3:30–5 PM; last order 8 PM; closed Sundays *as written by the visitor on May 13, 2023* ## Is this a convenient spot for rice bowls in Sinchon? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-01-yry0e-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-02-x9ndu-966.webp) Sunhui Dining (순희다이닝) was introduced as being about a two-minute walk from the above-ground Exit 1 of Sinchon Station. It was also about a five-minute walk from Ewha Womans University Station, so it was convenient to meet my younger sibling for a meal without a car. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-03-ojrp9-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-04-1fb8f-966.webp) The restaurant felt spacious, with wide gaps between the tables. I noticed decorative items that added to the atmosphere, and it looked suitable for gatherings or work dinners. However, I heard there can be a wait during peak hours. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-05-8xfnb-966.webp) ## How did ordering work, and what rice bowls were available? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-06-57mh0-m-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-07-1yejc-966.webp) There was a tablet at every table, so I ordered contactlessly. The meal options were 36-hour-aged butadon (Japanese pork rice bowl), 36-hour-aged spicy butadon, and soboro heaping galbi rice, and I could help myself to side dishes, soup, and extra rice at the self-service bar. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-08-1haw1-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-09-gdw4x-966.webp) > Two soboro heaping galbi rice bowls ₩19,000 · 36-hour-aged spicy butadon ₩10,000 · 36-hour-aged butadon ₩9,500 · two canned soft drinks ₩5,000 ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-10-kixxq-966.webp) My younger sibling and I ordered the standard aged butadon, spicy butadon, and heaping galbi rice. Since I cannot eat spicy food well, I chose the standard butadon and heaping galbi rice. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-11-1g7b8-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-12-gxymf-966.webp) ## What did the 36-hour-aged butadon taste like? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-13-gy3kx-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-14-sfhom-966.webp) It was a rice bowl generously topped with aged pork. Adding wasabi brought out more flavor, and I could taste the crisp vegetables alongside the smoky flavor of the meat. Rather than mixing it all together, I ate it by placing the toppings over the rice like side dishes. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-15-1v4m0-966.webp) ## What should you choose if spicy food feels overwhelming? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-16-vdkdo-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-17-1ucwt-966.webp) The spicy butadon was grilled pork in a spicy sauce, served with green onion, onion, garlic flakes, and more. It was fairly spicy for me, so if you do not handle spice well, the standard aged butadon would be a better choice. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-18-1hsfz-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-19-1b0ym-m-966.webp) ## How was the soboro heaping galbi rice different from butadon? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-20-1c17c-966.webp) The soboro heaping galbi rice included ground meat and stir-fried kimchi. It differed from the butadon, and the lightly sweet meat tasted refreshing with kimchi. ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-21-7shyb-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-22-uxixv-966.webp) ## What stood out after the visit? ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-23-w28l7-966.webp) ![Seodaemun rice bowl restaurant: 36-hour butadon at Sunhui Dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining-24-1kvub-966.webp) I remember the atmospheric interior, spacious seating, and kind service from the staff. Its proximity to Sinchon Station made it convenient to reach by public transit for a meal, and takeout was also listed as available. ## Where it is - Sunhui Dining (순희다이닝) - 2nd Floor, 78 Ihwayeodae-gil, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 서대문구 이화여대길 78 2층 순희다이닝 - 37.5592711, 126.944065 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%88%9C%ED%9D%AC%EB%8B%A4%EC%9D%B4%EB%8B%9D/@37.5592711,126.944065,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@warm-bowl/sunheedining-sinchon-butadon-dining/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
