Dongwon Sundae House 동원순대집
Jeonju · Seohak-dong, Jeonju Stream & Hyoja · Meal
Dongwon Sundae House serves sundae-gukbap, a pork blood sausage soup with rice, in a plain, hearty style that suits a cold day. The broth is milky and mild, with sausage slices, offal and sometimes noodles. Add salted shrimp, chives and chili to taste.
It is a no-frills local spot, so expect simple seating and quick service. Prices are moderate and may change. If you are not sure about offal, ask for sausage only.
Staff may speak little English, so point at the menu to order.
