Friday night ramen and offal rice bowl in Euljiro3(sam)-ga: Mentsuru
Mentsuru Euljiro Branch is a Japanese ramen and rice bowl restaurant between Euljiro3(sam)-ga and Chungmuro stations in Jung-gu, Seoul. Two people visited at 7:30 p.m. on a Friday with a Naver reservation and shared tori paitan (chicken broth ramen, 12,000 won) and hormone-don (grilled beef intestine rice bowl, 15,000 won); the tori paitan broth was rich but clean with noodles cooked just right, and the daechang in the hormone-don was well grilled, with wasabi on top cutting the fattiness. Mentsuru works best for two, ordering one ramen and one rice bowl and splitting both.
