Ramen on the 7th-floor food court before a movie at Yongsan CGV

Hi everyone, this time I went to Yongsan CGV~ Still so crowded! I wanted to eat before the movie and that's how I found Menya Seoul! I was really craving ramen~

There are so many food court spots next to the theater! Lots of menu variety, so you can just go wherever you like^^

It's on the 7th floor of I'Park Mall, and it was a bit hard to find at first, but just look for the red sign~ There was quite a line~

I heard the dongpo pork ramen and the chicken rice bowl are delicious~

There was a menu board and food models, which helped a lot with choosing~

Turns out it's a registered CESCO pest-control member store~

You eat here~ It's a great spot for solo dining too~

They also have cold ramen, so you can enjoy something refreshing in summer!

The pickup counter is right next to the ordering counter!

It took about 10 minutes~ When the food is ready, the buzzer goes off, so just grab spoons and chopsticks and come pick it up.

The order: dongpo pork chashu ramen, sweet soy chicken rice bowl and fried dumplings

Order details

This is the dongpo pork chashu ramen~ Wow~~ Doesn't it look amazing? haha

I also ordered the sweet soy sauce chicken rice bowl and fried dumplings, but the rice bowl was really small~ Maybe because it's meant as a side?

The Menya Seoul dongpo pork chashu ramen has dongpo pork and soft-boiled seaweed egg in it~ The broth was really refreshing~

The noodles were so soft too hahaha

The dongpo pork was super soft and clean-tasting too~

They also brought pickled radish, so I tried it alongside~

The fried dumplings were crispy and delicious too~

The sweet soy sauce chicken rice bowl had such a sweet soy sauce that I said it was delicious the moment I took a bite, but the portion looked quite small for the price~

It had chicken in it too, which was nice~

Eating it all like this, I ended up feeling pretty full~
