Jaha Son Mandu

Hand-folded mandu in Buam-dong, paired with a hike up to Bugaksan.

For over two decades, this restaurant has been attracting diners with a rustic dumpling recipe passed down from the owner's mother and her grandmother.
Although humble by nature, dumpling dishes are always elegantly presented.
Their signature dish is mandutguk: plump pork, bean curd and vegetable dumplings nestled in a delicate beef broth, seasoned with homemade soy sauce.
The main dining room offers a spectacular view of nearby Inwangsan Mountain.
Jaha Son Mandu has been a Michelin Bib Gourmand selection every year since the Seoul Guide's launch in 2016.
