Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive: basic info

Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive (고메무이 현대가든파이브점) is at B1, 66 Chungmin-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea. It is open 10:30-20:30, with a break from 15:00 to 17:00 and last order at 20:00. Groups are welcome and parking is available.

I went to Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive, a Gardenfive favorite, with my husband! We both love pot rice and tonkatsu, so every single item on the menu was right up our alley and we ate so happily (๑˘ ᵕ˘๑)

Where is Gomemui in Gardenfive?

Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive is on Gardenfive's B1 floor, next to VIPS in the Techno building. It catches your eye right away, so it's easy to find! B1 is the restaurant floor with tons of places packed together, but only Gomemui was full. I think we picked the right Gardenfive spot, hehe ( *ˊᵕˋ)

Gomemui menu and how to order

There's a menu board at the entrance! The menu covers pot rice, tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet), udon, soba and curry. The pot rice is especially good ദ്ദി ◦'⌣'◦ ) There are 7 kinds, so you can pick whatever suits your taste!

You order on a tablet at your table. The table has wet wipes, tissues, a menu, paper cups and cutlery! The setting is so pretty, lol ♡⸜(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)⸝♡

How do you eat the steak pot rice with tonkatsu set?

This is the Gomemui steak pot rice we ordered!! Every pot rice is so good that I always agonize over what to get, but today it was the steak one, hehehe ⸜(*'꒳'* )⸝

They bring a cute rice paddle and a sheet explaining how to eat it best. Follow it and it's seriously delicious ( ･ᴗ･ )♡

The steak pot rice is topped with steak, garlic flakes, an egg yolk with butter, and chopped scallions!

We ordered the set that comes with tonkatsu, so tonkatsu arrived as a side ꉂꉂ (*ˊᗜˋ*) If pot rice alone feels a little lacking, try ordering the set like we did! ( > ᴗ • )

Move the steak pot rice into a bowl and eat it with the sauce that comes alongside. So good ദ്ദി(｡•̀ ,<)~✩

Pour warm broth into the pot after moving the rice out and make nurungji (scorched rice soup)!! This is why we eat pot rice, hehe (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

What does Gomemui's mentaiko butter udon taste like?

This is the mentaiko butter udon with shrimp tempura set - ( *ˊᵕˋ)ﾉ I tried the mentaiko (spicy pollock roe) butter udon for the first time at Gomemui!! It was so good that I now order it every time I visit ♡

Brothless udon that you mix up was new to me, but the butter aroma plus the savory depth of the mentaiko is so good!! I think I'll order it every time I come from now on (⋆❛ ہ ❛⋆) ♡

How to add kelp vinegar to mentaiko butter udon

Just mix the mentaiko butter udon well - ♡ ~ (๑ - ⩊ - ) They give you kelp vinegar too, and 2-3 drops really boost the savory flavor!

And this is the shrimp tempura from the udon set! The shrimp inside was plump and springy, so good ＞ ̫＜ ♡

Who is Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive good for?

The menu has nothing divisive, so there were all kinds of guests: families with kids, office workers after work, and couples on dates like us! It's in a big outlet mall, so parking is easy, and walking around the outlets after the meal was perfect for digesting. Gomemui Hyundai Gardenfive is my big recommendation for Gardenfive ( ˶ ̇ ̵ ̇˶ )♡
