What I ordered: Fire-Grilled Steak Bibim Poke and Grilled Chicken Thigh Rice Wrap
- Fire-Grilled Steak Bibim Poke ₩13,900 (557kcal)
- Grilled Chicken Thigh Rice Wrap ₩7,900 (615kcal)
Super satisfied with how colorful and hearty it looked! The bowl was packed with a variety of ingredients — vegetables, corn, meat — and the rice wrap was stuffed full too, so even though it's a healthy meal, it never felt bland.
Grilled Chicken Thigh Rice Wrap, 7,900 won
This is a rice wrap with sous-vide-cooked chicken thigh, moist and tender, then fire-grilled once more for extra smoky flavor and savoriness. Inside, it's packed full with chicken thigh, brown rice and barley, crunchy vegetables, and corn, so even one on its own is surprisingly filling.
The moist chicken thigh, crunchy vegetables, and a slight kick of spice all came together really well. Unlike a typical tortilla wrap, this one has rice inside too, so it works fine as a full meal, not just a snack.
Fire-Grilled Steak Bibim Poke, 13,900 won: choosing the base and sauce
The steak poke is made with tender grilled ribeye sirloin steak, piled generously into a bowl with various vegetables and superfoods. You can choose the base between brown rice & barley or whole wheat pasta, and if you want something lighter, you can go vegetables-only or swap to an egg sheet for a keto-friendly version — easy to customize to your diet or taste!
For the sauce, I went with the recommended sweet soy sauce — savory with a subtle sweetness, and it paired surprisingly well with the savory steak.
The tender meat was delicious, and once I mixed everything together with the vegetables and rice, it wasn't bland at all, but also not too intense — the seasoning was just right. Getting protein while managing my diet like this makes it a perfect pick when I'm craving a good salad menu in Chungju.
Is Salad Ring in Chungju worth a visit? Final verdict
Salad Ring in Chungju really delivered on taste and fullness — with so many poke varieties and the option to choose your base and sauce, it's a great spot when you're dieting or just want a healthy meal. If you're looking for a good restaurant near Chungju Terminal, or craving a good salad or poke in Chungju, I recommend Salad Ring, Chungju Terminal Branch 😊
