Upon entering the quaint little restaurant, you will be welcomed by their friendly staff. Since it is our first time to try this place we didn't have much of an expectation...but we were a bit disappointed to see how limited their menu is :
Yes! That's all they have
free steaming hot Korean green tea
The dishes were in Korean ( which made us think that this is more of a Korean noodle house rather than a Chinese/Japanese place ) but with English descriptions. Unfamiliar with what dishes to order, the friendly staff helped us out to their house specialties.
The Food Spread :
JAENGBAN-JAJANGMYEON P250.00
- stir fried noodles with black soy bean sauce served on a large plate
MIL,SIL and FIL shared this order. Upon seeing how dark the sauce is, we expected the dish to be salty but it actually tasted pretty good...not salty at all! There is a hint of sweetness in the sauce.
JJAMPPONG P230.00
- spicy noodle soup
SORRY NO PIC WAS TAKEN...BOO! H WAS TOO EXCITED TO *SLURP* HIS NOODLE SOUP
H's order which the family also had to share. The broth of this dish is heavenly! You can taste the infusion of different seafood flavors and the spiciness adds just enough kick to awaken ones senses...and clear one's sinuses =P
NANG MEMIL-GUKSU P250.00
- cold buckwheat noodles...( but we had it hot )
We specially liked the lightness of the broth used in this noodle dish. Though this noodle soup didn't come with any meat toppings it is very tasty...i say the secret is in the broth!
MUL-MANDU P150.00
- boiled dumplings
The dumplings tasted okay, we've had better dumplings in other places that serve the same.
Overall, the food is okay but we didn't end the meal feeling satisfied..maybe because we are not accustomed to the kind of food they have. A good sign that this is not a bad restaurant is the number of Koreans who were entering and eating in the restaurant....and boy! do they seem to enjoy their noodles =).
