Before going on a Ttukseom picnic, my boyfriend and I stopped by for lunch around Sinchon. It was close to Sinchon Gyeongui–Jungang Line Station and Ewha Womans University, and the restaurant was set up as a neat dining space.

It looked good for eating together, and the solo seats also seemed to make it less intimidating to visit alone.

We ordered the 36-hour-aged butadon and the 36-hour-aged spicy butadon. They arrived neatly in individual bowls, and the guide suggested spooning up rice and topping each bite with the prepared ingredients rather than mixing everything together.

The meat felt tender and had a grilled flavor. My companion, who likes meat, enjoyed it too.
