Yaksuteo Sikdang in Yangseong-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do has built its reputation on a single dish, beef gopchang jeongol, since opening in 1994. When the hot pot arrives at the table, an intense garlic aroma fills the air as the broth, enriched by melted fat from the intestines, delivers a deeply savory flavor. Despite using frozen gopchang, the restaurant maintains a remarkably clean taste and tender texture free of any off-putting odor. Even the small-sized order comes generously packed with intestines, rice cake, and udon noodles, leaving most diners satisfied with the portion. The finishing fried rice is essential, prepared with ssukgat and a special seasoning, then stir-fried in perilla oil to capture every last bit of savory goodness from the pot. The overall seasoning runs on the salty side, which is something to keep in mind for those sensitive to sodium. The restaurant occupies a large building with an expansive parking lot, making it fully accessible by car, and the kitchen turns out orders quickly. The clientele skews toward group gatherings, including senior outings and motorcycle clubs, and the spacious hall fills rapidly on weekend lunchtimes, so early arrival or a late afternoon visit is recommended. Some reviews mention that the serving staff tend toward a rough manner, but the prevailing assessment is that the gopchang jeongol itself is accomplished enough to justify a drive of ninety kilometers or more. For anyone passing through the Anseong area, this restaurant merits serious consideration as a meal stop.
