A large-scale Chinese restaurant in Ssangchon-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju, with a distinctive layout - guests enter through a bakery on the ground floor and take the elevator or stairs up to the dining areas spanning the second and third floors. The spacious setup includes both open hall seating and private rooms, making it well-suited for family gatherings, group dinners, and events. A children's playroom adds convenience for families with young kids. The gan-jjajang (dry black bean noodles) is considered the house specialty, while the dim sum receives praise for authenticity comparable to what one might find in mainland China. The jjamppong features springy noodles in a clean, flavorful broth, and the full-course dinner paired with Yantai baijiu (Chinese sorghum liquor) is a popular way to enjoy the menu. Crab fried rice also draws positive mentions, though the tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) is considered average by some. A sizable parking lot sits behind the building, though it is shared with neighboring businesses and can fill up on weekends. Reservations are strongly recommended for weekend lunch and dinner, as wait times tend to grow considerably during peak hours.
