August 2025. Because my friend wanted to try different Korean food restaurants, we explored several new places lately. This Jeong Sikdang isn't really new in town; it has been there since last year, or even earlier - sometime in October 2024, around the same time when Busanzip opened in Desa Sri Hartamas and triggered a trend for stir-fried spicy webfoot octopus. Jeong Sikdang also selling Jjukumi, but different menu from Busanzip's. We were there around 7 p.m. on a weekday. It was not crowded at first, with only two tables occupied. However, as soon as we started eating, the place filled up. There is a minimum order of 2 pax required where we can mix and match. We go for Daechang Jjukkumi (stir fried spicy octopus with beef large intestine) RM65 + Chadolbagi Jjukkumi (Stir fried spicy octopus with beef brisket) RM58 since we love intestine and brisket too besides the jjukkumi. It turns out that's the best combo we've ever had so far.
The worker does the grilling. The meat is torched first before cooking start. When the cooking almost done, the worker torched the beef intestine after cut it into bite size. The beef intestine is so tender and juicy~ it became my new favorite after I tasted it for the very first time! The beef brisket was too thin, so as expected, it shrank and became unnoticeable after cooking. Jjukkumi cooked nicely too. We also order fried rice with perilla oil with leftovers at the end of the meal. The friendly Korean owner says the ingredients are imported from Korea, so the food tastes authentic. Now, this place is officially my new favourite for Daechange Jjukkumi.
