Sundae Silrok Daehakro Bonjeom 순대실록 대학로본점

Sundae Silrok Daehakro Bonjeom is a Korean sausage restaurant on the first floor of 113 Dongsung-gil in Jongno-gu, Seoul, serving sundae soup, griddled sundae steak, sundae and intestine stir-fry, and buckwheat noodles. Sundae-guk places sausage and pork organ cuts in a moderately concentrated broth, presenting the traditional rice-soup format one bowl at a time in a bright, orderly room. Tasting broth and sausage before adding condiments preserves the base salinity. Salted shrimp or sauce can then be applied in small amounts to individual pieces instead of changing the entire soup. Sundae steak takes boiled sausage and grills it again on an iron plate, creating a thin, crisp exterior. The interior is densely filled with black glutinous rice, bean sprouts, carrot, and meat. Casing tension, sticky grain, and vegetable crunch therefore appear in one cross-section. A piece eaten immediately from the griddle has a firmer surface, while one left briefly on the plate softens as interior moisture moves outward. Sundae-gopchang-bokkeum combines two types of sausage, intestine, chewy wheat rice cakes, and perilla leaves in a red stir-fry seasoning. Perilla aroma lowers the weight of offal and chile sauce, while the wheat cakes absorb seasoning and give a more elastic chew than the sausage. A bowl of sundae broth beside the stir-fry inserts hot liquid between spicy bites. Makguksu coats buckwheat noodles in a sweet and tangy seasoning, creating a cooler, lighter course after griddled sausage or intestine stir-fry. Slushy kettle makgeolli brings chilled crystals and grain flavor against the fat and red seasoning. A solo diner can take one bowl of sundae soup at a partitioned seat. Two or more diners can place steak and stir-fry in the center, then add makguksu or makgeolli. The large interior also includes outdoor seating. The useful order separates soup, crisp griddle cooking, spicy stir-fry, and cold noodles rather than repeating several forms of the same sausage.
