How to walk to Ganaandeok from Bakchon Station Exit 1

Ganaandeok Gyeyang Branch has a decent amount of parking space in front of it! You can park without any stress, which is handy for families or anyone driving haha. It's also about a 5-minute walk from Exit 1 of Bakchon Station, so walking there is great too!!

Inside Ganaandeok Gyeyang Branch: spacious and comfortable

The interior was really spacious! Each grill has its own ventilation unit installed, so smoke doesn't build up thick while you're grilling and the space stays comfortable. The tables are also spaced far apart, so you can focus on your meal comfortably haha. Outside there's a claw machine and seating too.

Tablet ordering and prices: whole raw duck 700g for 56,000 won

You order easily through the tablet installed at your table. The first order must be a whole duck (half + half), and here's what we ordered this time:

• Raw duck charcoal grill, whole (700g): ₩56,000
• Rice (2 bowls): ₩2,000
• Total paid: ₩58,000

Side dishes and the self-serve corner at Ganaandeok

These are the basic side dishes. Along with wrap vegetables like lettuce and perilla leaves, there was a nice variety of banchan (side dishes) — pickled radish, chive salad, cabbage salad, seasoned bean sprouts, pickled onion, kimchi, and more!! On top of that, at this duck restaurant in Gyeyang-gu, Incheon, you get one roasted sweet potato per person for free! So you can put the sweet potato in the charcoal to roast, enjoy the duck first, and then finish off with dessert sweet potato for a complete course haha.

On one side there's a self-serve corner with a solid variety. If you run out, you can easily refill.

I liked how well-kept it was, and there was even warm seaweed soup, which felt great on the stomach haha.

How did the 700g charcoal-grilled raw duck taste?

The raw duck we ordered passed the visual test right away, with bright red meat and a good ratio of fat.

Since it's a whole 700g portion, it came out piled generously on the plate haha.

When you put the duck meat and whole garlic on the heated grill grate together and grill them~~~ the fat drips down and the charcoal aroma naturally soaks into the surface of the meat!

Duck meat is best taken off the grill when it turns golden rather than cooked all the way through. It can burn easily, so keep moving it around with your tongs!!

The taste of the meat, need I say more~~ When you bite in, there's no dryness, the texture is chewy, and there was no gamey smell at all. If you like, wrap the grilled duck, garlic, and crunchy bean sprout salad or chive salad in perilla leaf or lettuce for a bite where the crunch of the vegetables and the savoriness of the meat come together nicely.

Even just dipping it lightly in basic ssamjang (dipping sauce) or salt lets the clean flavor of the meat itself shine, and it's total rice-thief material!! Duck restaurant in Gyeyang-gu, Incheon, approved~

Free duck mung bean porridge with every order

They give you duck mung bean porridge for free here too,,,,

Topping the porridge served alongside with a well-grilled piece of duck makes for a soft, clean combination that's perfect to have midway through the meal!!

Dessert: sweet potatoes roasted over the charcoal

As the meal was wrapping up, they took the grill off and pulled out the roasted sweet potato! It's this place's specialty. Peel the foil off the well-cooked sweet potato and it's golden yellow inside, moist, with a sweet aroma rising up!

The sweet potato wasn't dry at all, it was soft, and topping it with the well-ripened napa cabbage kimchi from the self-serve corner made for a refreshing, crunchy contrast against the sweetness — a clean, non-cloying way to end the meal haha.

There's coffee too, and they even sell bead ice cream...!! A truly happy way to wrap up the day!
