Family menu and pasta to enjoy in a unique atmosphere
May is Family Month. Children's Day (5th), which is the red day on the calendar, aside from Mother's Day (8th) and Teacher's Day (15th), is a series of days full of love and gratitude, from the usual unfamiliar Coming-of-Age Day (18th) and Couple Day (21st). Furthermore, since it's Monday until Buddha's birthday (25th) this year, there are three-day vacations, including weekends, so eating out is bound to be frequent.
When it comes to family dining menus, ribs are the first thing that comes to mind. However, beef ribs are a heavy financial burden, and pork ribs are difficult to stop at first glance because of the smoke and smell. However, the same menu every time, such as jajangmyeon and sweet and suyuk, is not only moved, but also likely to listen to the family's thoughts. If so, how about entertaining the family with a slightly unusual menu? The main character is noodles and pasta that are rolled up and eaten while holding a spoon in the left hand and a fork in the right hand.
