Gwangjin ramen lunch booked on Naver: extra-tamago shoyu at Mentsuru

Mentsuru Children's Grand Park Branch is a ramen restaurant on Gwangnaru-ro in Gwangjin, Seoul, busy enough that a line forms even at weekday lunch. A Naver reservation meant walking straight in, and with tori paitan sold out, the order was shoyu ramen and shio ramen (11,000 won each) with plenty of extra tamago (soft-boiled egg), shared between two. The shoyu ramen beat the shio, and the food arrived fast, making Mentsuru an easy lunch stop on a date near Konkuk University.
