No-wait weekday pho with waiting perks at Dongtan Station: Mibundang
Mibundang Dongtan Station Branch is a pho restaurant a 5-minute walk from Dongtan Station Exit 2 in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi. The writer arrived around 2 pm with no wait and noticed cool hutgae tea and parasols set out for waiting customers, then ordered two bowls of brisket-tendon pho and an assorted fried platter. With every seat a solo-friendly bar counter and thoughtful little touches throughout, it made for a satisfying lunch.
