A family who usually visits for makguksu and buckwheat crepe rolls in summer came on a cold day and ordered mushroom dumpling hotpot, giant buckwheat dumplings (6 for ₩8,000), buckwheat jeonbyeong (₩8,000) and three bowls of sticky barley rice (₩2,000 each), ₩50,000 in total. Seongsu Makguksu suits a warm hotpot lunch on a cold day as well as summer noodles. ## Good to know - **What we ordered**: Mushroom dumpling hotpot, giant buckwheat dumplings, buckwheat jeonbyeong, 3 bowls of sticky barley rice - **Total bill**: ₩50,000 (based on the order at the time of the visit) - **Giant buckwheat dumplings**: 6 pieces for ₩8,000 - **Buckwheat jeonbyeong (buckwheat crepe rolls)**: ₩8,000 - **Sticky barley rice**: ₩2,000 per bowl; not included with the hotpot, so ordered separately - **Rice refills**: Staff said refills were available if needed (at the time of the visit) - **Address**: 1F, 3 Achasan-ro, Seongdong-gu, Seoul - **Price reference**: ₩8,000 ≈ $5.9 · ₩2,000 ≈ $1.5 · ₩50,000 ≈ $37 (2026-11-08) *as written by the visitor on Nov 9, 2026 · not checked with the business* ![Mushroom dumpling hotpot lunch spread at Seongsu Makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-01-n90bb-1200.webp) In summer, there's a restaurant we often visit for makguksu (buckwheat noodles) and buckwheat jeonbyeong (crepe rolls): Seongsu Makguksu (성수막국수), a family favorite :) This time it was so cold that I craved something hot instead of cold noodles. So instead of our usual order, I tried the mushroom dumpling hotpot. I added the jeonbyeong we love, plus a side of dumplings, and the table filled up with a full spread. We had a warm, tasty lunch, haha. ## A summer makguksu regular: what we ordered on a cold day at Seongsu Makguksu ![Seongsu Makguksu restaurant near Ttukseom Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-02-1lufs-900.webp) ![Inside Seongsu Makguksu, a place we visit every summer](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-03-9o6he-900.webp) ![Interior of Seongsu Makguksu, a family-favorite Korean restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-04-jc1cz-900.webp) ![Seongsu Makguksu restaurant at the time of the visit](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-05-8m5de-900.webp) On this cold day at Seongsu Makguksu, we skipped the makguksu and made mushroom dumpling hotpot the main, with jeonbyeong and giant buckwheat dumplings as sides, plus three extra bowls of barley rice. This wasn't our first visit; we usually come in summer for the noodles. We love eating makguksu with jeonbyeong, so this place feels familiar. When you have a go-to order, you end up ordering the same thing every time, right? haha. This time the cold weather pushed us to pick something different. I wanted rice too, so we added three bowls of barley rice. ## How much did the mushroom dumpling hotpot spread cost? ![Photo of the order and prices at Seongsu Makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-06-sk61j-900.webp) Based on the order at the time of the visit, the total for the mushroom dumpling hotpot, giant buckwheat dumplings, buckwheat jeonbyeong and three bowls of barley rice was ₩50,000. Barley rice is ₩2,000 a bowl and isn't included with the hotpot, so we ordered it separately. - Mushroom dumpling hotpot - Giant buckwheat dumplings (6 pieces) ₩8,000 - Buckwheat jeonbyeong ₩8,000 - Barley rice ₩2,000 × 3 - Total ₩50,000 ## What does the mushroom dumpling hotpot look like when it arrives? ![Mushroom dumpling hotpot with dumplings, mushrooms, napa cabbage and bok choy](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-07-15x2d-900.webp) The mushroom dumpling hotpot came in a pot with dumplings, mushrooms, napa cabbage and bok choy. Big dumplings peeked out between the vegetables and mushrooms piled high in the middle. I really wanted something hot that day, and seeing the hotpot on the table, I thought we'd chosen well. ![Large dumplings in the mushroom dumpling hotpot at Seongsu Makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-08-qhiu3-900.webp) The dumplings in the hotpot were more generous than I expected. Since we'd already ordered side dumplings, I thought, "Wow, the hotpot has this many dumplings too!" haha. ![Lunch of mushroom dumpling hotpot with barley rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-09-pt3ds-900.webp) Hot broth with dumplings and vegetables, plus barley rice: this was exactly the lunch I wanted on a cold day. We usually come for cold makguksu in summer, so eating a warm hotpot here was fun, a new dish at a familiar place. Staff told us at the time that rice refills are available if needed. ## Should you add the giant buckwheat dumplings to the hotpot? The side giant buckwheat dumplings come six to a plate and cost ₩8,000. I love dumplings so I ordered them separately. I knew the hotpot had dumplings too, but it turned out more generous than expected, so we ended up with a very dumpling-heavy meal, haha. ![Side order of giant buckwheat dumplings, six to a plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-10-1wtcw-900.webp) If you love dumplings like we do, adding the side is great. But if it's your first time ordering the mushroom dumpling hotpot, you might want to see the portion first and then decide. It's hard to guess from the menu alone, right? I only learned this by eating it, so I'm leaving the note here :) ## Our usual jeonbyeong too: a warm, satisfying lunch ![Buckwheat jeonbyeong we always order at Seongsu Makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-11-nbwwn-900.webp) We switched the main to hotpot, but we still ordered the buckwheat jeonbyeong, ₩8,000. It's what we eat with makguksu in summer, so we picked it naturally again. ![Lunch table with jeonbyeong, hotpot and dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-12-14c6e-900.webp) ![Mushroom dumpling hotpot and side dishes at Seongsu Makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot/seongsu-makguksu-mushroom-dumpling-hotpot-13-63wmz-900.webp) The familiar jeonbyeong, a first-time mushroom dumpling hotpot, and side dumplings too. It was a day of trying a different seasonal menu at a place we love. I think "we had a warm, tasty meal" says it best, no complicated explanation needed :) Seongsu Makguksu was our summer makguksu spot, but now I'll think of it on cold days when I crave hotpot too.
