Jongno 3-ga dumpling hot pot with jorangi rice cake: Jongga Mandu

Jongga Mandu is a handmade dumpling restaurant in Jongno, Seoul, where the hot pots are built around dumplings folded fresh every morning. Two dumpling-loving friends ordered the spicy hot pot, added chewy jorangi rice cakes, burst a dumpling into the broth to thicken it, and finished with a serving of kalguksu noodles. Jongga Mandu is the place to remember on a day that calls for a hot, fiery bowl of broth.
