The original branch of the Goguryeo Jjamppong chain in Siheung, Gyeonggi-do, with a broth-focused menu that has sustained its reputation over many years. Heat levels are adjustable, but any menu item with the character "bul" (fire) in its name delivers genuinely scorching spice that numbs the palate - those without strong spice tolerance should stick to the regular level. The old-fashioned jjamppong reveals its fame from the very first sip, with broth of considerable depth and body, while the chadol jjamppong-bap (brisket jjamppong with rice) is seasoned well enough to enjoy without adding rice to the soup. The hand-pulled-style noodles hold their chewy texture without getting soggy. Jajangmyeon comes in a traditional style with starchy sauce - not overly sweet, generously portioned, and solidly executed. However, the tangsuyuk tends to be pre-fried and may lack crispiness, so focusing on the jjamppong varieties - particularly the chadol or samseon options - is the wiser approach. Portions are substantial enough to deliver strong value for money, and the high turnover rate ensures ingredient freshness. Weekend mealtimes can involve long waits, but rainy days and weekday visits typically allow immediate seating. On-site staff manage the parking lot and assist with both parking and departure.
