Su-Ryun Jip (CLOSED)

In the maze of alleyways behind Jongno 3-ga Station, there is a hidden and worn-down restaurant with Korean meal sets for just 3,500 won. You can choose either the pollock or kimchi jjigae, which are both served with a large bowl of rice and several banchan dishes on a dented metal tray. With the warm flavors and hearty portions, you might think you’re eating in an actual Korean home. The smiling ajummas that greet you and the profuse servings are testament to the fact that hospitality still exists in fast-paced Seoul.
