The writer and her husband ordered the basic course (₩45,000 per person) — pea tart, sweet shrimp apple tart, minari yuja bisque pasta, vongole pasta, sous vide chicken breast steak, and Earl Grey ice cream — and both picked the vongole as their favorite. With a black-toned open kitchen, coat hangers, blankets, and even phone chargers, it's a great pick for dates and blind dates. ## Good to know - **Address**: 138 Hyanggyo-ro, 1st floor, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi, South Korea - **Course**: Hado basic course ₩45,000 per person (Hado summer course has more menu items and a slightly higher price) - **Hours**: Mon 16:00-21:30 / Tue-Sun 11:00-21:30 - **Break time**: 14:20-16:00 (except Monday) - **Last order**: 20:00 - **Parking**: Gyodong Public Parking Lot right next to the restaurant, first hour free, then ₩300 per 10 minutes - **Payment**: Local currency vouchers, Naver Pay, easy pay - **Notes**: Corkage allowed (fee applies), open kitchen and bar seating, coat hangers, blankets, and chargers provided *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* I finally went back to Haenggung-dong, a neighborhood I used to visit all the time~ I stopped by Hado, which is perfect for dates and blind dates, and had their course meal! ![Signature photo of Hado's course meal in Haenggung-dong, Suwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-01-1ka9m-1200.webp) You can order à la carte or go for the course here, and it's a place that nails both looks and taste. The vongole pasta especially is unforgettable haha.

It's SO close it almost feels like the restaurant's own lot haha. (The ❤️ mark shows where Hado is.) Gyodong Public Parking Lot is free for the first hour, and paid after that, but since it's a public lot it's not expensive! This is a photo of the storefront I took again on my way out because it looked so pretty — the streets of Haenggung-dong get even prettier at night! The evening atmosphere with the lights on was so lovely 😍 ## Black interior, open kitchen, and the restaurant vibe Now let's step inside Hado~ ![Table inside Hado](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-07-fjhw3-900.webp) ![Cozy interior of the Hado dining hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-08-cz54n-900.webp) It's compact but has quite a few tables, and the cozy atmosphere really suits course dining and Western food~ ![Hado's black-toned interior design](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-09-zn3hp-900.webp) ![Hado's open kitchen and bar seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-10-9x08p-900.webp) ![Seating layout inside Hado](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-11-1hk8m-900.webp) It's decorated all in black overall, which made the mood even better~ There's bar seating too — is this basically front-row seats to the kitchen? Haha. Hado has an open kitchen, so even from your table you can watch the cooking happening from a distance haha. ![Tableware set up at a table in Hado](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-12-nvn96-900.webp) Once seated, they set out the tableware for us~ The attention to detail in the table setting?! The little touch on how the spoon was hung was so pretty 📸 ![Decorative detail with the spoon in the table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-13-2fruu-900.webp) Hado has two types of course meals (Hado Summer Course / Hado Basic Course), and we ordered the basic course~ The Hado Summer Course has a bit more menu items and is slightly pricier~ ![Turntable and charger in a corner of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-14-1ol4l-900.webp) And in one corner, a turntable! There's also a charger provided so you can charge your phone while eating~ There was even a CD player?? Looked like disposable earphones were prepared too~ The owner's sense of style, wow 🫢 ![Corner with coat hanger and blankets provided](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-15-1wcak-900.webp) There's a coat hanger for hanging up your clothes, and blankets are provided too, just so you know! If you search 'Hado' on Naver and download the coupon, you can get a free ade drink~ And if you write a Naver receipt review, they'll prepare a takeaway cup of rooibos apple lemon tea for you on your way out after the meal! ## Hado basic course (₩45,000 per person): what's included ### Pea tart & sweet shrimp apple tart I was really hungry that day, and we started the meal with a gorgeous-looking appetizer~~ 😍❤️ 🫛 Pea tart — this had an almost salad-like fresh feel to it haha ![Pea tart and sweet shrimp apple tart appetizer](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-16-1t0po-900.webp) 🦐 Sweet shrimp apple tart — this had a lovely springy, chewy texture from the sweet shrimp, and it paired surprisingly well with the crisp texture of the apple~ Perfect dishes for whetting the appetite~ ### Minari yuja bisque pasta ![Minari yuja bisque pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-17-1xzsi-900.webp) You can choose from several pastas, and the most basic one is the 'minari (water dropwort) yuja bisque pasta.' So that's the one I ordered! It's a pasta with a subtle hint of shrimp guts flavor coming through — you'd think 'cream pasta' means heavy and thick, but this had a light, fresh(?) feel instead~ ### Vongole pasta ![Hado's vongole pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-18-vq0er-900.webp) Everyone, this pasta is insane! They say vongole pasta only really shows its true colors when made by a place that's genuinely good at it — and this vongole here is seriously amazing. I want to come back and order it à la carte next time!🥹 > Of everything we ate that day, both my husband and I picked the vongole as our number one!! If you visit here, I highly recommend the vongole ⭐️ ### Sous vide chicken breast steak ![Plated sous vide chicken breast steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-19-jhb6l-900.webp) I didn't know chicken breast could turn into such a beautiful dish..?? ![Sous vide chicken breast over carrot purée](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-20-vnv5d-900.webp) It was plated beautifully like a work of art haha. What's underneath is carrot purée — it tasted more like potato and not too much like carrot, and it was delicious haha. Being sous vide, the chicken breast was so tender~ The tender chicken breast met some ingredient on top I don't know the name of that gave a crisp(?) texture, making the whole thing even more fun to eat~ ![Carrot purée remaining on the plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-21-13l35-900.webp) The carrot purée was so tasty I scraped the plate clean haha. ### Earl Grey ice cream ![Earl Grey ice cream dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-22-jm5v6-900.webp) And this one was also seriously delicious!! ![Cross-section of Earl Grey ice cream with crumble underneath](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-23-1hfjh-900.webp) There's crumble laid underneath the ice cream~ Eating this together with the ice cream is a texture jackpot 🫢 like eating a Dwaejibar ice cream bar! I thought it was chocolate at first, but it felt more like cookie! It has a strong, rich Earl Grey flavor that I don't think anyone could dislike. The portion was just right too, perfect for dessert👍 I usually don't finish dessert ice cream, but this one was so good~ ![Mouthwash provided after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner-24-1giiu-900.webp) ## How was it as a Haenggung-dong date/blind date spot? When we were about to leave after eating, they even had mouthwash ready for us — what a nice touch😍 - ✔️ Haenggung-dong date spot - ✔️ Haenggung-dong blind date spot Hado was exactly that~ (Make sure you order the vongole~❤️) ## Where it is - Hado (하도) - 138 Hyanggyo-ro, 1st floor, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi, South Korea - 경기도 수원시 팔달구 향교로 138 1층 하도 - 37.2730549, 127.0150466 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%98%EB%8F%84/@37.2730549,127.0150466,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@warm-napkin-gyeonggi/haedo-suwon-haenggung-course-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
