Đệ Nhất Cơm Canh Thịt Lợn (Thảo Điền) - Restaurant in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

I visited the Dwaeji-gukbap (Pork and Rice Soup) restaurant near my home for the first time. I ordered the most traditional Dwaeji-gukbap and steamed dumplings. It was my first experience with Dwaeji-gukbap. The rich flavor of the pork bone soup was explosive. There were seasonings to adjust the flavor to one's liking, which made it very enjoyable. The portion was very generous, making me full. If visiting as a pair, ordering the steamed dumplings might be too much. My wife, who dined with me, ordered the 'Pork Soup with intestines.' The pork intestines were very delicious. I felt that the pork in the regular Dwaeji-gukbap had a slight odor, but it was really tasty. Also, the seasoning of the restaurant's Kakdugi (radish kimchi) was the best I've ever had.

we had a hot mixed soup and cold noodle. the portion size is a huge plus. the soup was literally boiling. broth had rich delicate flavor. meat was very juicy, well cooked. cold noodle was kinda a surprise, as it had a slight herbal flavor. will definitely comeback and try other dishes. staffs were nice and fast 👏🏻

Probably one of the most authentic Korean diners in HCMC Food: Huge portion, the banchan is super delicious Service: fast, professional and friendly Atmosphere: Super authentic

Đệ Nhất Cơm Canh Thịt Lợn truly serves up heartwarming comfort food - steaming rice, light savory soup, and tender, flavorful pork that just soothes the soul. Only wish they’d add some beef to the menu for a change, since too much pork can get a bit heavy. And you really feel well taken care of here — the service is attentive, and the kimchi is surprisingly delicious. It’s those little touches that make the meal extra satisfying. Fingers crossed for more variety next time!

The menu looks simple but is incredibly delicious. The cold noodles are delicious, the pork rice soup is extremely delicious, and the sausage is also delicious. The space is an entire villa, very beautiful, spacious, and airy, with comfortable parking. The Korean staff is extremely friendly, enthusiastic, cheerful, and attentive. They treat Vietnamese customers very nicely.
