Hyanghwajeong

This Korean restaurant near Hwangnidan-gil is set in a renovated old hanok. Its signature dish is seasoned-cockle bibimbap, served on a round platter with the bibimbap and seasoned cockles arranged half-and-half. Other dishes, such as Gyeongju yukhoe mulhoe, are also available, so groups often order several items to share.

Seating is limited, so lines form during mealtimes, and the restaurant runs on a system where you register for the waitlist at the kiosk in front and are called when it's your turn. Break time is from 3 to 5 p.m., so going right after that or right at opening keeps the wait shorter, and there is no parking in front of the restaurant.
