Ganggane Maetdol Bindaetteok 강가네 맷돌 빈대떡

Ganggane Maetdol Bindaetteok is a Korean pancake specialist at 27 Daesagwan-ro 24-gil in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu. Its central dish is nokdu bindaetteok, made from soaked mung beans ground on a stone mill and cooked in a generous layer of oil. The mung bean pancake has a crisp surface and moist center, while the potato pancake provides a chewier alternative. First-time diners can choose the assorted jeon to sample several pieces or order the king prawn jeon when they want whole prawns with a springy bite. Recent diner records repeatedly pair the assorted jeon, mung bean pancake, and king prawn jeon. The pancake menu also covers samgyeop pajeon, meat patties, Korean beef jeon, perilla-leaf jeon, spicy chive jeon, and seafood pajeon. Pork neck stir-fry, spicy squid, acorn jelly, tofu with herring roe, dubu kimchi, stews, and noodles make it possible for a group to combine pancakes with a fuller meal. Many visits center on jeon and makgeolli, which makes the restaurant useful to compare for an evening drink in Hannam-dong. Menu prices and opening hours can change, so check the map listing or call before visiting.
