Sambaekjip
삼백집
A bean sprout soup rice shop founded in 1947. It is named for selling only 300 bowls a day in the past, and it opens at 6 a.m.
Sambaekjip was founded in 1947 by Lee Pung-sun, who originally sold only 300 bowls of bean sprout soup rice a day. When they sold out, she closed, so customers called it Sambaekjip, the House of Three Hundred. This is the boiled-style bean sprout soup rice, in which the seasoning and egg are cooked together in the broth, unlike the poured-style soup rice of the southern markets. The menu also includes Hanwoo blood sausage hot rice (seonji-onban) and mojoo, a traditional sweet rice drink. Bean sprout soup rice costs about 9,000 won. The shop is on Jeonju Gaeksa 2-gil near the Gaeksa, with two parking lots. Weekend lunches are busy, while breakfast is calmer.
