A small family house that has been folding large Pyongan-style dumplings on the same block for over thirty years, now run by the second generation. The signature is mandu-guk, dumplings served in a clear broth simmered from beef brisket. It holds a Bib Gourmand in the Michelin Guide.
Menu and ordering
Mandu-guk is the dish to have. The dumpling hot pot suits two or more people, and bindaetteok is a good side order.
Before you go
The afternoon break is long, so plan for an early lunch or an early dinner. If you do not want chilli you can ask for the spicy seasoning to be left out.

Mandujip was exactly the kind of comfort food you want after a long day. The mandu were huge, filled generously, and tasted homemade with a chewy wrapper and juicy filling.
The broth was clean and soothing without being too heavy, making the whole bowl feel incredibly comforting

Zero ambience busy staff 20 minute wait at lunch BUT the mandu reminds me of home. North Korean mandus are not for everyone less meaty more veggie/tofu, thicker skin mild flavors. I prefer them and could eat 20! The standard dish has 6 in hot water (not broth) so if really hungry

Awesome.
One of my favourite three meals on our trip to Korea. Dumplings were great and the broth they are served in was fantastic.
