(41 reviews)
An old Chinese restaurant that has served Daegu's Jong-ro neighborhood for over 30 years. True to the sign that calls it a dumpling specialty house, its signature dishes are boiled mulmandu and crispy gunmandu filled with chives and meat — notably made without dangmyeon (glass noodles).

Local Tips

  • Famous for chive-and-meat mulmandu (boiled) and golden gunmandu (fried) — no dangmyeon inside
  • Old-school, cozy spot open daily until 10:30 PM; reservations are accepted
  • Dumplings are affordable (~8,000 KRW) — pair them with jjajangmyeon or a shared tangsuyuk
