[Sinchon Restaurant] Jeongyukmyeonche Sinchon Branch - Michelin Guide Hongtang Beef Noodle, Kkaebuseumen, Yuringi, Paid-by-Me Honest Review.

Baekwonjang rating ★★★☆☆

Hello.

This is Baekwonjang’s Food Michelin.

I’d like to introduce Jeongyukmyeonche Sinchon Branch, which I visited again after a long time.

It’s a famous spot in Sinchon that has the Michelin Guide tag, right?

Jeongyukmyeonche Sinchon Branch

This was a place I enjoyed about two years ago, and somehow I ended up visiting once more.

No wait time, so here’s a review after trying a few different menu items~~

Location: 22-8 Yeonsero 5da-gil, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul

Parking: Not available.

Jeongyukmyeonche has now grown tremendously, with locations in Suwon, at the airport, and in Jeju.

Still, it started in Sinchon, and this is still the main branch~?

I visited on a weekday afternoon, so there was no wait.

Exterior

It’s now starting to show its age.

Two years ago, the line was quite long, but I guess it’s not easy for a place in Sinchon to keep drawing in lots of new people.

Still, the shining Michelin Guide award sticker and the very, very simple “Jeongyukmyeonche” lettering are impressive.

They use Catch Table. I went during the day, but if you go in the evening, I’m sure there’s still a line these days~

Interior

The interior feels like a shop somewhere in Japan.

With time, it has taken on even more of a well-established restaurant atmosphere.

When you sit down, you’ll see that the utensil container and side-dish container are arranged very neatly.

Take only as much side dish as you want to eat!

Meal begins!!!

If you place the simple but somehow addictive side dishes like this and wait a little,

Cheoyuringi (small, 5,000 won)

The first dish to come out is the Yuringi with a unique appearance.

Long chicken breast is thinly fried and sliced, then coated with a sweet-and-sour, nutty sauce, right?

Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside is the key point of this Cheoyuringi.

Coming back after two years, it feels like this taste has also become ordinary by now.

The evolution of taste never ends..

Then the two main dishes came out together.

They have a very appetizing appearance.

Hongtang Beef Noodle (12,500 won)

If you want to enjoy a refreshing spicy broth in one bowl, choose this one!

It has a look similar to jjamppong, but the flavor is closer to mala??

It’s tasty, but it’s not the same shock I felt when I first encountered Choma in Hongdae a long time ago.

That was a really delicious shock back then.. haha

Kkaebuseumen (13,500 won)

The next menu item that came out was Kkaebuseumen.

You can tell from the name, right? It has a thick, nutty noodle texture with a sesame flavor packed into a nut-based sauce.

It feels familiar, like something I’ve eaten somewhere before, yet also like a flavor you can only get here.

Because of the surprisingly thick sauce, you really can’t help but eat it in a quite dense, rich way.

It’s full of nutty flavor, but it’s surprisingly not greasy.

The pork belly (?) on the side is a bonus..

Today, I ate well again.!!!

Conclusion

It has become a flavor I’m now familiar with. .

When I first came here two years ago, I rushed over after hearing that a Michelin Guide restaurant had opened in the very familiar neighborhood of Sinchon..

But before I knew it, time had passed and it had become everyone’s restaurant.

In fact, a good restaurant needs to stay familiar over time rather than stay novel, and that isn’t an easy thing to do... haha

I’ve been twice, and the flavor has already become familiar.. which even made me feel a little disappointed. ㅠㅠ

It feels like my wife, who has to go with me, probably won’t want to go again...

Taste: ★★★☆☆

Value for money: ★★★☆☆

Accessibility: ★★★★☆

Facilities: ★★★☆☆

Parking: Not available.

In my opinion, considering the prices in a college district, I wouldn’t say it’s cheap.

Of course, creating such an intensely rich sauce must require a lot of ingredients and know-how costs, but for a restaurant in a university area, the prices seem a bit high!

Even so, if a place makes you unable to think, “When should I go again next time?” every time you visit... then I think that’s a bit lacking.

Still, I think it’s truly worth celebrating that it has been doing so well and already expanded to three locations.

That’s my honest review. . .

Thank you for reading my paid-by-me restaurant post today,

I will continue trying to become a restaurant coordinator you always want to visit. :)

Thank you.!!
