Kyunghee Sikdang (경희식당)

Kyunghee Sikdang is a Korean table d'hote restaurant with 70 years of history, located at the entrance to the Beopjusa Temple in Songnisan Mountain. The dishes are prepared with ingredients sourced from Songnisan Mountain, vegetables grown by the restaurant, and in-house sauces. They come with nearly 40 side dishes, such as sogogi pyeonyuk (boiled beef slices), dureup namul (fatsia shoot salad), gosari (bracken), gam jangajji (pickled persimmons), ssari beoseot (coral mushroom), meowi namul (butterbur salad), pyogojeon (pan-fried battered golden oak mushrooms), bam jorim (braised chestnuts), and deulkkae songi twigak (young perilla branch chips). The restaurant’s mustard sauce and gangdoenjang (seasoned soybean paste) are made according to its secret recipe.
