A home-style baekban house in a Hwajeong-dong lane: grilled fish or braised pork rotate as the main, with banchan set by the day's market.
“Baekban has to change a little each day so people can come every day.”
In a Hwajeong-dong lane in Seo-gu, this baekban house feeds nearby office workers and residents day in, day out. A longtime cook says, “Baekban has to change a little each day so people can come every day.” Grilled fish or braised pork rotate as the main, with namul, kimchi, and stew filling the table. The banchan follow that morning's market basket, so there's no fixed menu, and rice and stew refill. Her aim, she says, is “a table like home, only with one more hand's care.” Lunch turns fast, so before noon or after one is calmer.
