“The pan-fried dumplings and japchae are superb, showing the depth of traditional Korean-Chinese cooking”
- Dangmyeon Japchae (glass noodle stir-fry)BestThe best glass noodle japchae ever tried, with superb seasoning
- Gun-mandu (pan-fried dumplings)Chewy dough, crisp outside, with a pork aroma
- Kaibashira Twigim (fried scallop adductor)Fried pen shell adductor, which hardly any restaurants make
- Atmosphere
- An old building like a movie set
- Would return
- Worth coming all the way to Daejeon
- Good for
- A drinking session with someone who loves Chinese food
- Value
- Japchae is the most filling for the price, a great-value pick
- Tips
- Dip the pan-fried dumplings in pepper salt
- Recommended to get japchae instead of yangjangpi (cold seafood salad)
- The japchae can be made spicy on request
