Seoul National University Entrance Sharosugil Meat Restaurant “Chadol”

The alley behind exits 1 and 2 of Seoul National University Entrance Station is known as “Sharosugil,” a representative dating spot near Seoul National University Entrance. Here, you can find various restaurants and cafes. It’s a bustling place, especially on weekday evenings and weekends.

The name “Sharosugil” is a combination of “Sha,” a symbol of Seoul National University, and “Garosugil.” In the past, it was the “Naksungdae Market.” This place used to be home to a quaint market, but in the mid-2010s, various experimental establishments started popping up in the alleys, thanks to relatively low rents and a young commercial district. It has since become a fun and unique street full of character.

On this day, we visited as a pair, ordered Chadolbaki first, and enjoyed our meal. To our surprise, they also provided Chadol sushi on the house. Add a bit of wasabi on the sushi, place the Chadol on top, and you have Chadol sushi.

After enjoying the Chadol, we felt a bit unsatisfied, so we ordered brisket and skirt steak, along with a soybean paste stew to conclude our meal.
