A visit with a 4-year-old and parents-in-law covered tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) half portion, a solo set meal, ganjjajang, jjamppong, and seafood scorched-rice soup, with thin-battered tangsuyuk the kid loved, a self-serve banchan bar, unlimited rice, and a baby chair on hand. A solid pick for a Cheomdan family meal with young children. ## Good to know - **Address**: 6 Cheomdangangbyeon-ro 87beon-gil, 102-ho, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, South Korea (across from Cheomdan Gyeojassi Church) - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–22:00 (break time 15:00–17:00) - **Parking**: No dedicated lot; street or alley parking available - **Tangsuyuk (half)**: ₩18,900 - **Solo set meal (jjajang + jjamppong + fried dumplings)**: ₩11,900 - **Set menu**: ₩11,900 - **Ganjjajang**: ₩9,900 - **Jjamppong**: ₩10,900 - **Seafood scorched-rice soup**: ₩15,900 - **Event**: Tangsuyuk for ₩1,000 with 2 draft beers ordered - **Payment discounts**: Gwangju Sangsaeng Card, Gwangsan Love Gift Certificate, Onnuri accepted - **Kid-friendly**: Baby chair available, unlimited rice at self-serve bar *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* ![Exterior of Mayway, a Chinese restaurant in Cheomdan, Gwangju](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-01-1dx7z-966.webp) I went with my 4-year-old and my parents-in-law to Mayway, a Cheomdan favorite.

There's no dedicated lot, but you can park along the street. It's across from Cheomdan Gyeojassi Church, and I found spots on the street or in the alley. (I actually parked at Lotte Mart first, then moved the car over here.) ## Inside Mayway The interior was clean and tidy, which I liked. ![Bright, high-ceilinged interior of Mayway](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-04-1fn4q-966.webp) ![Clean dining seats at Mayway](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-05-bmeki-m-966.webp) High ceilings and a bright feel made it a good spot for bringing guests too. The atmosphere kept the mood good all through the meal. ### Self-serve bar ![View of the Mayway self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-06-5ac1a-966.webp) A clean self-serve bar ![Banchan set out at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-07-8jpdw-966.webp) ![Scallion kimchi and other self-serve side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-08-1vlq8-966.webp) You can help yourself to banchan (side dishes) like scallion kimchi, and rice is unlimited, which was great for mixing the last bit of jjajang sauce into a bowl! ![Sweet potato fritters served right after being seated](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-09-6ra8l-966.webp) They brought out sweet potato fritters as soon as we sat down, and they were delicious. I cut them up with scissors to share with my kid, who happily ate them. Mayway really is a good Cheomdan spot to bring kids to. ## What we ate at Mayway ![Mayway menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-10-12l9x-966.webp) ### Tangsuyuk (half) — ₩18,900 Right up my alley ✅️ Tangsuyuk half, ₩18,900 ✔️chunky meat ✔️thin batter ✔️nutty flavor ✔️plus a generous salad with a tangy dressing My 4-year-old ate it up so well.

This one has real wok-fire flavor. They say instead of artificial additives, they crank up the heat to get that smoky char. ![Mayway's smoky wok-fire jjamppong](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-17-18kly-966.webp) ### Seafood scorched-rice soup — ₩15,900 ✅️ Seafood scorched-rice soup, ₩15,900. A healthy, satisfying dish. I ordered it to share with my kid and was glad it was loaded with seafood. I loved the sizzling sound when they poured it in, and it stayed piping hot all the way through. The crispy scorched rice and rich seafood broth made for a filling meal. (The seafood I gave up to my kid.) ### Dessert They brought out ice cream for dessert, one per person. The ice cream wasn't rock-hard and melted smoothly, a nice way to end the meal. ![Ice cream served for dessert after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-18-14zul-966.webp) Coffee is also available for dessert! ## Events, discounts, and info for families with kids ![Sign for the event: tangsuyuk for ₩1,000 with 2 draft beers](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-19-5oxql-966.webp) ✔️Event: Order 2 draft beers and get tangsuyuk for ₩1,000 ![Notice posted inside Mayway](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-20-7w05z-966.webp) ![Another posted notice inside Mayway](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-21-12ogi-966.webp) ![Seating at Mayway suitable for families with kids](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-22-1re5u-966.webp) ![Payment and discount information at Mayway](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-23-32ocs-966.webp) ✔️Baby chairs are available. ✔️Discounts: Gwangju Sangsaeng Card, Gwangsan Love Gift Certificate, and Onnuri gift certificates accepted. ![Entrance to Mayway, across from Cheomdan Gyeojassi Church](https://img.superchart.com/images/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk/chumdan-meiwei-family-dinner-tangsuyuk-24-uyjut-966.webp) ## Who should visit - Anyone looking for a good Chinese restaurant on the Cheomdan food street - Anyone looking for great tangsuyuk near Cheomdan Lotte Mart - Anyone looking for good delivery food near Cheomdan Hillstate 👉 I recommend Mayway, a Cheomdan favorite.
