[SEOUL] Menbosha has actually been among my much-loved recipe on Korean-Chinese dining establishment food selection.
I formerly located convenience in Michelin-recommended Jin Jin Dining Establishment 진진 (Mapo-gu) and also Mashi China 맛이차이나 (Mapo-gu).
As seen on Oriental range programs, I have actually listened to several favorable goes crazy concerning star cook Lee Yeon Bok’s Menbosha which offered me the resolution to quest it down this moment.
With no neighboring train terminal, Mokran lies somewhat off major Hongdae location to the north and also took me concerning a great 20 minutes walk, obviously you can merely obtain a taxi for benefit.
Unlike normal dining establishment with typical eating areas, it is a stand-alone 3 fabled structure which has numerous little pockets of exclusive space with just 1 or 2 tables.
Indicate note: A few of his even more popular meals are such as Menbosha, Dong Po Pork & & Stuffed Shrimp Paste in Chinese Mushroom and also will certainly call for advancement booking.
Not understanding its appeal, I walk-in throughout lunch however it was full-house. Chosen to not leave empty-handed and also booked for very early supper rather.
Based On all the goes crazy, his trademark Menbosha (KRW35000, SGD$ 38.90) did meet the assumption.
Each item of salute was sandwiched with charitable quantity of shrimp paste filling up and also deep-fried till gold brownish.
On every mouthful, you can initially experience the crunchy salute outside, adhered to by its wet crunchiness from the fresh shrimp which uses up a substantial percentage of the salute.
I additionally suched as that its going along with garlic catsup dipping sauce offered some tanginess to counteract its greasiness from deep frying.

Was looking something various and also I opted for their Yoolingi (Hot & & Sour Pepper Fried Poultry) (KRW30000, SGD$ 33.30), which included lightly-battered deep-fried poultry on a bed of shredded lettuce in soy sauce clothing.
More covered with cut garlic, eco-friendly and also red chilli peppers for the moderate spicy kick.

For carbohydrate fans, you can attempt their Crabmeat Fried Rice (KRW12000, SGD$ 13.30) which included wet short-grain rice gently imbued with “frying pan hello”, accompanied with an offering of fragrant crab brew which was abundant in flavour.
