Usijang Gukbap 우시장국밥
Gongju · Geum River & Sinkwan-dong · Meal
A gukbap shop in Sinkwan-dong, a few minutes from the intercity bus terminal, which makes it a convenient first meal when you step off the bus from Seoul or Daejeon. The beef broth is hearty and mild, with rice already in the bowl, and kimchi and pickled radish come on the side. Prices are low and service is quick, so it suits a quick refuel before sightseeing or a warm dinner on a cold evening.
The dining room is plain, with table seating, and the menu is simple enough to order by pointing. Travelers who avoid spicy food can order it without the chili seasoning. Hours vary, and it may close early on slow days.
