Kim Young-ae Sundubu Bonjeom is a long-standing Sokcho establishment specializing in soft tofu. The restaurant focuses on a single-item menu, Sundubu Baekban, and remains open only until lunchtime. Priced at 12,000 won, the tofu features a crumbly texture with the pure nuttiness of soybeans. Its mild profile makes it suitable for breakfast. Adding the seasoned soy sauce sharpens the flavors. A side of biji-jjigae, or okara stew, accompanies the meal. This stew uses an anchovy stock base to create a thick consistency that pairs well with white rice. Side dishes like seasoned dried pollack and cucumber salad contain perilla seeds for added savoriness. Located at 183 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Nohak-dong, the restaurant uses domestically sourced ingredients and high-quality rice. Food arrives quickly after stating the number of diners, ensuring high turnover. A spacious parking lot with staff facilitates access. Visitors often find that the appreciation for these fundamentals of Korean cooking grows over time.
