Tojong Gopchang Cheolsan Main Branch

Overview

If you're looking for an authentic and delicious gopchang (grilled beef intestines) experience, look no further than Gwangmyeong Tojong Gopchang's main branch in Cheolsan. This place is a local favorite, known for its high-quality ingredients and bustling atmosphere.

The Main Event: The Gopchang

The moment the platter of gopchang arrives at your table, you know you're in for a treat. It’s grilled to perfection, with a perfectly crispy exterior and a wonderfully chewy, juicy interior. The "tojong" (local, authentic) name lives up to its promise—the freshness of the intestines is simply outstanding, with no unpleasant aftertaste.

A Full Experience

• Grilled Vegetables: The gopchang is grilled alongside fresh vegetables like chives (buchu) and kimchi, which soak up the savory flavors and add a great textural contrast.
• Dipping Sauce: The simple yet flavorful dipping sauce enhances the taste of the gopchang without overpowering it.
• Fried Rice Finale: A visit here isn't complete without ordering the bokkeumbap (fried rice). Cooked on the same pan with the leftover oil and spices, it's the perfect, savory end to the meal.
