Dwiungbak Goeul 뒤웅박 고을

Thousands of earthenware sauce jars line the grounds of this traditional jang (fermented sauce) theme park at the end of a quiet country road in Jeondong-myeon, Sejong, and its restaurant serves hanjeongsik, a multi-course Korean set meal. Dishes come out one at a time so nothing sits and cools, and the house-made doenjang and soy sauce underpin even the basic side dishes. The Seong course is the standard option with the fuller Jeong course above it, and weekday and weekend menus differ. The sauce museum and garden are free to visit; afterward, a cafe at the front serves tea, and a short walk passes statues of the twelve zodiac animals. Cars are kept away from the area in front of the restaurant, which makes it easier with children, but the remote location means driving is the practical way in.
