This post was written in 2019. Shop details and prices may have changed since then.

I heard there was a place that makes good mandu, so I dropped by.

It’s a small place. They call themselves a mandu specialist, but the menu is surprisingly varied.

Well… it kind of feels like the neighborhood hangout spot too…

The hands of a mandu master…

He’s working right at the front of the shop.

They’re nicely made, but at 3,500 won the filling is a little underwhelming. I wonder if they should just charge a bit more, but I suppose that’s how it goes with a neighborhood place.
