A trip to the taste trip! Best 5 new Chinese restaurants

From jajangmyeon, which comes out in the five fingers when you think about what to eat for lunch, to colorful dishes that surprise your eyes and mouth. China’s culinary spectrum is deeper and wider than any other country, with some saying, “Even Chinese people die without being able to eat all of China’s cuisine.” The culinary culture, which has developed as diverse as the size of the wide continent, has become richer by combining the geographical environment and the characteristics of minorities.

Attempts to systematize these dishes in earnest have continued since the Qing Dynasty, and are now completed with Shandong cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Guangdong cuisine, Jiangsu cuisine, Zhejiang cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Hunan cuisine, and Huizhou cuisine. Due to the difference in topography and climate, the northern part is characterized by the strong and salty taste of beef or lamb, and the southern part is also characterized by the development of sweetness and spicy taste by eating seafood and poultry dishes.

Let’s go on a treasure hunt tour of taste buds into Chinese cuisine of all natural colors that captivated the tastes of people around the world. This week, we introduce five Chinese cuisine hot places that embody local tastes in Korea.

The restaurant was opened jointly by Chef Jang Bo-won, the third-generation Chinese chef, and Chef Hwang Kyu-yeon of “Negi.” It was originally a popular Chinese restaurant in Gwangju, but it is moving to Apgujeong and writing a new story. Along with a regular table, there is a draw-shaped bar table, so you can choose and sit according to your taste. It is largely divided into appetizers, pigs, cows, poultry, seafood, and meals, and each category consists of foods that you can feel the charm of this place. Dongpa-yuk, the representative menu, is a dish that wraps Dongpa-yuk, Pachae, and cucumbers at once, and has a good balance that vegetables neatly control the sweet and salty taste of meat. Butter Sweet and Sour Pork with a slice of butter on top of sweet and sour pork and Sandong Xiaojji, a cold chicken salad, are popular.

▲ Review

(siksin 요가뽜이야): I heard it was famous in Gwangju, but it was soft and delicious. It goes well with the steamburn because it’s salty. I think it has a strong spice flavor. It’s hard to make reservations because it’s so popular.

(siksin 치즈계란말이): Whatever you order, everything is delicious. I ordered the menu you recommended, but the seasoning was not strong and the seasoning was just right and it was very good. It’s the first time I’ve seen a dish I’ve never seen before. It tastes like pepper. It’s not that expensive, so it’ll be good for gatherings.

It is a place full of gravy that pops up when you bite it while it has a chewy texture by mixing ingredients inside show mai and dumplings. It has a light taste and feels comfortable even if you eat a lot.

A small dumpling restaurant located in a market alley near Isu Station. There are many dishes that are somewhat unfamiliar without jajangmyeon or jjamppong, so it is a recommended place if you want to challenge new Chinese cuisine. It is a small store, but customers constantly come in and out like a sparrow mill. “Tuna Dumpling,” a combination of tuna and mackerel with dumpling filling, has a unique light taste of fish. Dumplings are characterized by thick blood. “Chili stir-fry” with a crispy texture of bell pepper and paprika stir-fried with chili oil, “fried wood ear mushrooms” with an unfamiliar but snack-like texture, and “Jisasamseon” with eggplants are also popular.

35, Dongjak-daero 29na-gil, Dongjak-gu, Seoul

▲ Business hours

Daily 12:00-22:30 (closed every Monday)

▲Price

Tuna dumplings 12,000 won, cabbage dumplings 8,000 won, and jisamseon 16,000 won.

▲ Review

(siksin 락휴바릿): Dumpling skin is thick, so those who like thin blood should know in advance lol I like thick blood, so I was very satisfied. It’s a bit crowded and noisy because there are a lot of customers, but that’s the charm of the old store. It’s a good place to order dumplings and stir-fried pepper and have a glass of somaek!
