About
Chinese-Korean cooking, from fresh-fried rice to two-person paljaengban jjajang and seafood jjamppong.
A fried dumpling arrives at the start of the meal, free with your order: hot, crisp, and a small preview of Manrihyang’s straightforward approach to Chinese-Korean cooking. The room is described as spacious, with an open kitchen, and weekday lunch brings in office workers as well as groups and families. One visitor found it quiet at 11:35 on a weekday and says the food came quickly; that is a useful time to aim for if you want an unhurried lunch. For a solo meal, the fried rice (bokkeumbap, 볶음밥) is a strong choice. Reviews say it is cooked to order with fresh ingredients and works well on its own; it costs ₩9,000. The shared pan jjajang (paljaengban jjajang, 팔보쟁반짜장) is listed for two at ₩23,000 and gets particular praise as a group dish. Jjamppong (짬뽕, ₩9,000) brings a rich, spicy seafood broth with clams, shrimp, and squid, though one reviewer found it less satisfying than the rice dishes. Tangsuyuk is another option; reviewers describe it arriving hot and crisp, with the small portion listed at ₩20,000. Manrihyang serves lunch and dinner Monday through Friday, 11:00–21:00, and is open Saturday 11:00–15:00; it is closed Sunday. A blog reports a weekday break from 15:30 to 16:30, which is worth checking before you go between lunch and dinner. The spacious room suits friends, families, or a work meal, and the menu has plenty of familiar choices. Keep expectations measured: some diners find the cooking ordinary for the price, and the jjajang noodles have struck one reviewer as chewy with too little sauce.
