## In short

Sip Sam Dae is an aged ugalbi (long-cut beef rib) and hanwoo beef restaurant in Guwol-dong, Namdong-gu, Incheon, just behind the emergency room of Gachon University Gil Hospital. Three adults ordered the Premium Ugalbi B Set at 118,000 won, which brings 500g of ugalbi, 500g of marinated beef short rib and a large doenjang (soybean paste) rice, all grilled at the table by the owner.

The scorching heat has finally passed and the autumn sunshine and breeze feel great these days. But with the change of seasons my immunity's been dipping, my allergies are kicking up, and for some reason I've just been collapsing onto the couch the moment I get home from work. Times like this call for a big plate of meat to power back up — so let me introduce Sip Sam Dae (십삼대), a beef restaurant in Guwol-dong I found.

Sip Sam Dae, in Guwol-dong, is a beef restaurant behind the ER of Gachon University Gil Hospital, serving aged ugalbi as well as hanwoo, wagyu and other meat dishes. It's also a go-to spot for residents of the big Guwol-dong apartment complex, Hillstate Lotte Castle Gold. (The name struck me as unusual, so I asked the owner — turns out a cow has 13 rib bones, and that's where "Sip Sam Dae" — literally "13 generations/ribs" — comes from.) They've been running this same spot for 14 years, surviving even the COVID years, so this is a certified real deal 👍👍

> Parking is free in the building's underground lot or the rear lot (park in front of the restaurant or in the lot, then call the restaurant to have the underground barrier opened). Or use the paid Guwol parking lot, a 2-minute walk away.

## Sofa seats and private rooms for family meals and work dinners

The inside of Sip Sam Dae is spacious and clean, with comfortable sofa seating and private rooms, making it a good pick for family gatherings, work dinners, or a meal out for a special occasion.

## What's on the menu: ugalbi, hanwoo, wagyu and black pork

Sip Sam Dae's menu covers everything from ugalbi, hanwoo, and wagyu to black pork, so both beef and pork are on offer. The ugalbi set in particular comes with doenjang (soybean paste) rice for a hearty meal, and there's a good range of sides too, like cheese potato pancake and homemade cream cheese. The owner handles the meat prep himself and puts it through several careful stages of aging before serving.

## Why the charcoal sits on only one side of the grill

One quirky detail unique to Sip Sam Dae: the charcoal is piled up on only one side of the grill. After grilling the meat on that side, they move it over to the side without charcoal, so it stays gently warm all the way through — a thoughtful touch from the owner 👍👍👍

## The Premium Ugalbi B Set for three adults, 118,000 won

## Tableside grilling service by the owner

At Sip Sam Dae, the owner does the grilling for you. Honestly, with charcoal-grilled ribs, someone usually has to stay focused on the grill so nothing burns, which makes it hard to relax and just enjoy the meal. Here, the owner grills the meat himself and even recommends how to eat it, so we could just focus on savoring the flavor. He sears the surface lightly to seal in the juices, cuts it into bite-sized pieces, and briefly covers it with the stainless steel cup you see in the photo to infuse it with charcoal aroma. Listening to him explain the process and watching it unfold at a relaxed pace was such a comfortable, enjoyable experience.

## How the ugalbi tastes with salt, house sauce and vegetables from Jindo

He set down a small dish of salt and told us to try the perfectly grilled meat with just a light dip of salt first, so we could taste it on its own. Following his advice, a light dip in salt, a bite 😗 — the moment I chewed, the springy surface gave way with a chewy texture and the juices burst out ⚡️⚡️ The more you chew, the more that clean, savory flavor comes through.

Next, a bite dipped into the house sauce he mixes himself — the sharp garlic aroma and the soy sauce base, neither too salty nor too sweet, worked together without overpowering the meat, actually making it shine even more. Loved that sauce 👍 It also paired beautifully with the scallion shreds and beet-pickled radish. Most of the ingredients used here — the lettuce, radish, scallions and so on — are grown by the owner's parents in Jindo and sent up to the restaurant. Parents' love really has no limits 💕💕 That's exactly why the lettuce, scallions, and pickled radish tasted unusually fresh and delicious.

## Marinated beef short rib that is barely sweet

Next up, the marinated beef short rib ~~ compared to typical yangnyeom galbi it's barely sweet at all, so it doesn't get cloying. Definitely try it with the grilled pineapple served alongside.

Of course the marinated ribs call for a lettuce wrap — lettuce, a bit of scallion shreds, meat, and a dab of wasabi, then a big bite. Tear off a piece of the juicy, tender king oyster mushroom and eat it with the meat too — I couldn't put my chopsticks down 🥢

## Doenjang rice made with meat picked off the rib bones

Partway through the meal, he took the rib bones we'd picked the meat off of, pulled off the bits still clinging to them, and used it to make doenjang (soybean paste) rice for us. A doenjang base with little chunks of rib meat in every bite — this stuff is downright bewitching 😍😍

## Ending the meal with homemade cream cheese canapés

And then, the homemade cream cheese — you really, really have to try this one. Made by the owner himself, it's thick yet melts smoothly, with just a touch of sweetness balanced against a nutty richness. Made into a canapé on a biscuit with blueberry compote the owner reduces himself, it's the perfect ending. If you want to enjoy great meat in a relaxed setting while feeling properly taken care of, head to Sip Sam Dae in Guwol-dong!!!
