A well-known Chinese restaurant in Mokpo where you can try jungkkan - a dish unique to the city that is worth experiencing at least once. Jungkkan uses finely minced vegetables and pork clinging to thin noodles, producing a flavor entirely different from the oily heaviness of standard jjajangmyeon. At 8,000 won per serving with complimentary tangsuyuk and jjamppong on the side, the value is striking, and two types of house-made kimchi add an unexpected Korean touch to the Chinese-food setting. The jjamppong uses the same thin noodles in a broth that grows more compelling with each spoonful, and the overall seasoning profile leans sweet. Weekend lunch can mean a thirty-minute-plus wait, and the one-way alley makes public transport easier than driving.
