PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch is a roastery café in a Mangwon-dong alley near Mangwon Market in Mapo, Seoul. On a second visit, the writer ordered an iced Americano with the tangy beans and an iced latte with the nutty beans, and took a Kyoto matcha Basque cheesecake to go. If you like coffee with acidity, the tangy iced Americano at PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch is worth coming back for.
Arirang Gaeseong Son Mandu Siksa Branch (아리랑 개성손만두 식사점) is a handmade dumpling and mandu (Korean dumpling) hot pot restaurant in Siksa-dong, Ilsandong-gu, Goyang, Gyeonggi. The writer ordered kimchi mandu hot pot for two at ₩12,000 per person (₩24,000 total), tried the steamed mandu first, then enjoyed the hot pot's refreshing, clean broth, mild homestyle dumplings and generous portions. Arirang Gaeseong Son Mandu Siksa Branch is a good Korean lunch pick in Siksa-dong for anyone who loves kimchi dumplings.
Hanmaeum Butcher Restaurant Gimpo Janggi branch is an aged-meat butcher restaurant on the 2nd floor near Janggi Station in Janggi-dong, Gimpo. Two adults shared a 500g half pig of pork belly and pork neck, with free doenjang stew (soybean paste stew) and jjolmyeon (chewy spicy noodles), then added rice to the stew to finish with doenjang rice. Hanmaeum is a generous, good-value Korean BBQ spot in Janggi-dong where you don't need to order any extra sides.
