The mung bean porridge topped with black sesame was soft and so tasty. The food arrived beautifully presented and delicious. The perilla-oil capellini combines the fragrance of perilla leaves with seaweed and egg garnish, plus the sweetness of raw shrimp. ![Perilla-oil capellini Korean fusion dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-12-oiks3-900.webp) ![Capellini with perilla leaves and raw shrimp](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-13-3soau-900.webp) The pressed mushroom meat and truffle chamnamul greens salad were delicious together, with plenty of pleasant chewiness. ![Pressed mushroom meat and truffle chamnamul greens salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-14-12c1i-900.webp) The flavor of the mushroom-filled pressed meat worked wonderfully with the greens. ![Pressed mushroom meat and greens dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-15-k1fvs-900.webp) They looked and tasted so good that they disappeared in no time. ![Beautifully arranged appetizer dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-16-mltgi-900.webp) ![Korean appetizer table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-17-1o268-900.webp) The salad topped with kabocha squash was made even brighter by its tangy dressing. ![Kabocha squash salad with tangy dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-18-4pvpv-900.webp) The chilled smoked-duck salad paired crunchy vegetables beautifully with the smoked duck. The spicy mushroom gangjeong had a crisp coating soaked through with deeply flavored sweet-spicy sauce, meeting the soft mushroom inside and bringing so much pleasure to every bite. ![Crispy spicy mushroom gangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-19-1yyrf-900.webp) It was perfect for chatting away while eating.

The mains arrived together, generous and neat, and they kept lifting my mood. The watery napa-cabbage kimchi and stir-fried kimchi tasted clean and refined too. Since someone else made it for us, and it was so neatly prepared with clean flavors, it got a big thumbs-up. The fluffy rice and rice pot felt full of nourishment and goodness. There were two tteokgalbi, so it was surprisingly filling. There was one abalone, but it was cut into easy-to-eat pieces, which was nice. The fried kelp bugak (crispy seaweed snack) also let us enjoy both the beauty and crunch of Korean food. We enjoyed this elevated Korean cuisine as a course, really getting a taste of upscale dining. The rice pot was generously filled with mushrooms and meat, making every mouthful a joyful texture. Every dish that came out tasted good. The tangy kimchi broth felt rich in probiotics somehow, and it seemed easy to digest. One bite felt filling while also making my gut feel healthier. The stir-fried kimchi went well with it too. ![Rice pot with mushrooms and meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-22-a6tae-900.webp) The grilled abalone, prepared into bite-size pieces by a staff member, disappeared happily as soon as it went into my mouth. The Korean menu at Yeouido IFC Mall is really good here, and it’s a great restaurant for family-introduction gatherings. ![Prepared grilled abalone Korean menu dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-23-17fbq-900.webp) ![Pudding dessert to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban/yeouido-ifc-sotbap-tteokgalbi-modamurban-24-4o4jz-900.webp) We finished the meal with pudding. > In an upscale atmosphere, we enjoyed a Korean course meal full of delightful flavors and textures.
