Baekrihyang

About

A Chinese restaurant inside Hapjeong’s Mecenatpolis, serving classic dishes in the mall’s “Tasty Street” corridor.

At Baekrihyang in Mapo, a bowl of yuseul jjamppong makes a persuasive case for the pleasures of a well-stocked noodle soup. The ingredients are cut into fine strips and cooked together: the red broth comes crowded with wood-ear and shiitake mushrooms, zucchini, onion, carrot and pork. Even the regular serving was described as generous, while the noodles were notably springy and soft. It is the kind of bowl that rewards a slow search through its layers, rather than a quick sip and a few bites. There is more to the menu than a warming solo lunch. One visitor’s group meal began with yangjangpi, its mustard sauce and crisp cucumber bringing a sharp, lively edge; yusanseul followed, warm and comparatively gentle, with plenty of mushrooms. Chili shrimp arrived crisp and hot with a mild kick, while kkanpunggi brought more heat and a nutty note from pieces of peanut in the sauce. Gochu-japchae, served with steamed buns, added fragrant green pepper. The meal ended with jajangmyeon and a sweet bun. Another diner singled out the yuringi and gan-jjajang as orders worth making, suggesting a menu suited to sharing as well as noodle cravings. The setting has a practical, tucked-in quality: Baekrihyang is inside the Mecenatpolis mall, along its “Tasty Street” corridor, reached from Hapjeong Station through the underground connection near exits 9 and 10. A waiting area furnished with panda figures gives the entrance a playful detail; inside, one group used a room for a company meal. The evidence points to a place that can accommodate both a quick bowl and a larger table of dishes, without needing to dress either occasion up. For a first visit, the yuseul jjamppong is the vivid choice: red, substantial, and full of finely cut ingredients. Bring company if you want to explore the broader spread—especially the crisp shrimp, warming chicken, peppery stir-fry and soft buns—and leave room for the noodles that close the meal.
