Read guide →Korean cuisine (hansik) is built around balance — fermented sides (banchan), a steaming bowl of rice, and a main dish that changes with the season. Meals are served all at once rather than in courses, and sharing dishes at the table is the norm. The depth of flavor comes from slow-fermented pastes like doenjang (soybean) and gochujang (chili), which form the backbone of soups, stews, and marinades across the country.
Yeongdeungpo-gu's Times Square mall and Yeouido financial district generate a diverse food scene of department store restaurants, business lunch spots, and the Han River cycling culture that has made outdoor food and coffee culture a fixture of the waterfront.
Dating back several decades, this place is a local gem of a Taiwanese Chinese restaurant. So, top-notch quality of service shouldn't be expected. The hall manager asked what my order was before handing over the menu. It's not super clean either. Tables, chairs, and everything need inside-out cleaning and repair by a team of handymen. If you can overlook those shortcomings, the food will be pretty enjoyable. I never had such a genuine taste of 간짜장, which is devoid of sweeteners and a scoopful of MSG, in a very long time. Whitey noodles (indicating baking powder is very low or non-existent) are less chewy but don't cause stomachache. It makes a pretty satisfying meal that soothed me on that quite busy day. I highly recommend visiting there if you're in the area. It's quite a distance from the 구로디지털단지 metro station, about a 10- to 15-minute walk. Taking a bus from there is suggested. Cheers.
reasonable price good stuff I couldn't help but order some Igwadooju while eating.
It's classic. Clerks are similarly with grandparents. They are friendly. Also, favor is good. Cleanliness is little bit bad, but I like there atmosphere. Recommended menu is Seafood Nurungji soup.
