Let me introduce a Chungju favorite near the Chungju bus terminal — the poke specialist Salad Ring, Chungju Terminal Branch.

What kind of place is Salad Ring, Chungju Terminal Branch?

Salad Ring, Chungju Terminal Branch isn't the kind of place that serves a light salad-style meal — it's a Korean-style bibim (mixed) poke salad specialist that gives you a hearty, healthy meal. Salad Ring offers this mixed-poke style in a generous format that isn't common in Korea.

Trying the Healthy All-in-One Bibim Poke to go

I ordered the Healthy All-in-One Bibim Poke and the sweet pumpkin chicken breast sandwich, and the moment I ordered, they made everything fresh and packed it up neatly for takeout.

The Healthy All-in-One Bibim Poke and sweet pumpkin chicken breast sandwich we brought home looked so generously portioned just from opening them up, and my wife and I decided to try the Healthy All-in-One Bibim Poke first.

The Healthy All-in-One Bibim Poke was piled high with smoked duck, chicken breast, and fried tofu alongside plenty of vegetables, so it felt really filling — and with the mild brown rice and barley base, it mixed beautifully with the Salad Ring dressing for a delicious bite.

The next morning: sweet pumpkin chicken breast sandwich

The next day, I had the sweet pumpkin chicken breast sandwich with coffee for breakfast — loaded generously with the special sauce, sweet pumpkin, chicken breast, and lettuce, it was really satisfying, and both the taste and the portion made for a great, energizing start to the morning.

After trying the Salad Ring bibim poke and sandwich, my wife immediately started searching on her phone.
