Balsan Korean restaurant with Pororo kids' tableware: Mikodam

Mikodam Magok-Balsan Branch is a Korean set-menu restaurant a 3-minute walk from Exit 4 of Balsan Station in Gangseo, Seoul. On a weekend lunch, two adults and their children ordered the 3-person set and shared Norwegian grilled mackerel, cockle bibim in two sauces (seasoned soy sauce and vinegared), beef jeon (pan-fried beef in egg batter) and stone-pot beef seaweed soup, and the staff brought out Pororo kids' tableware first. Portions at Mikodam were generous enough that the 2-person set would have been plenty, making it an easy pick for a family meal with young children.
