Chef Choi Hyun-seok’s Jincheon Stop: Pot Rice and Soy-Marinated Crab at Cheongsan Garden
The pot rice and soy-marinated crab from Choi Hyun-seok’s Food Travel episode came from Cheongsan Garden in Jincheon. The potato pancakes in the same episode were served in Eumseong. If you remember the little side dishes arranged around a bowl of rice, set your destination to Jincheon.

What to order
The show lists yeongyang sotbap jeongsik, a set meal built around pot-cooked rice, alongside ganjang gejang, crab marinated in soy sauce. Ask whether crab is included in the set or ordered separately. The two menu names on a programme listing do not establish one fixed-price combination.

Find the right entrance
Search for 청산가든 at 충북 진천군 이월면 진안로 354. Keeping the Korean name handy makes it easier to match the sign at the entrance.
Before you visit
The restaurant gave separate winter and summer hours in the programme notes. Check the service time and weekly closing day for your visit, especially if you plan an evening drive. The broadcast listing does not specify a parking entrance. If you are driving, ask the restaurant where to park when you call.
