Editor’s overview
Start your Busan food journey near the station with a warming bowl of pork soup and rice. Bonjeon is a convenient stop around a train journey.
Menu and ordering
Order the dwaeji-gukbap - this is the house that many Busan locals name first, with a broth kept clean and light rather than heavy. Stir in a spoonful of the shrimp sauce and a pinch of the chives, then add rice; the internal-cuts version, naejang-gukbap, is there if you want something richer.
Dwaeji gukbap ₩11,000; suyuk set ₩14,000

Amazing warm bowl of broth with pork slices. What I like about this place is that is feels like a long establishment frequent by locals. They serve the usual banchan like kimchi and chives. If you like your pork rice saltier, add the shrimp paste. It gives an additional umami. Ov

A fantastic introduction to dwaeji-gukbap! The soup was rich and comforting, served piping hot alongside fresh side dishes. Service was impressively fast and attentive from start to finish. It gets packed quickly, so I recommend arriving right when they open or outside peak dini
