“Soy sauce paste†is seasoned with a sauce made by stir-frying chunjang without water or starch. The soy sauce, which is carefully prepared when ordered, has a greasy yet savory flavor compared to regular jajang. From seasoned soy sauce made with minced meat to make the most of its umami flavor, to long-established Chinese restaurants that have been in business for over 70 years, and soy sauce where you can enjoy fried eggs in a splash! Here are 5 of the best soy sauce restaurants in the country.

â–²Testimonial (Eating is good for the body): I came here with my wife because this place is famous for its meat and soy sauce, but it can only be ordered by 2 people or more. The puffy, white noodles are like meat sauce pasta because they are tightly rubbed with a sauce full of meat. Even though it was salty and the sauce was stiff, it had a great flavor that wasn't excessive when rubbed on the noodles.
2. 'Daebang' in Jeonju Jungang-dong, where the flavor of fire is alive

â–²Testimonial (like eating sweet crab): A traditional Chinese restaurant in Jeonju. The sweet and sour pork has a really good texture. Also, my favorite jajangmyeon is a flavor you can't miss, from the savory flavor to the crunchiness of the noodles. Champon is also very popular. I recommend a traditional Chinese video restaurant.

â–²Testimonial (during the week of eating during the week): Baekyangsu also has a variety of menus and reasonable prices. The entrance felt like a long-standing store, so people took lots of pictures; hehe, the soy sauce didn't get wet until the noodles were eaten, and it had a strong appeal. Surprisingly, the fried rice was fluffy, and the balance was good, so I ate it deliciously.

â–²Location: 2-1 Gwandeok-ro, Jeju-do
▲Opening hours: 11:30 — 18:00 every day
â–²Price: Soy sauce 6,000 won, fried rice 6,000 won
â–²Testimonial (older brother of Shikigami Lotto): It's a long-established Chinese restaurant that has been in business for over 40 years~ It's run by an elderly couple, but the chef is there separately! I also liked the fact that most of the country of origin was domestic~ I ate soy sauce and fried rice. I was surprised by the hearty toppings of soy sauce, and it contained as much pork as onions. Fried rice doesn't come with jajang sauce separately. I ate it with egg soup, so the hearty rice was classic, and it was really hearty and delicious!
5. 'Daelim Bandeung' in Suseong-dong, Daegu, a sauce that gently draws the palate

â–²Review (Shikigami Game Pocacao): This is a place I visited on time because it is famous for its delicious soy sauce. There's also a wall saying not to spread the word… hahaha soy sauce is a type with wide noodles and contains chives.. A style sauce with rich jajang and a delicious saltiness… The sweet and sour pork is stir-fried, and the radish decoration dyed with beet water is pretty. The sauce was fresh without ketchup, so it was delicious…
