Got Mandu? Kimchi Mandu that is.

Sang-wook
Recently a reader asked me this:

actually maybe you know of a good spot to get homemade kimchi mandoo?
most places steam up and serve the frozen ones but i'm thinking of
something akin to "mandoo bar" on west 32nd st in nyc... with fresh
kimchi and pork... thanks for any info!

So I've been thinking and to be honest, I don't know where to get good kimchi mandu. Lunalil did a story on a place with kimchi-du and I've covered a place with pork mandu, but I would like to ask you if you know a place with awesome homemade mandu.

Here are the places with mandu that have been covered on Seouleats so far.

  1. There's a small chain of mandu huts that make their own. I've seen them do it. And they're my favorite. You can taste the fresh ingredients. The onions are sweet. The kimchi actually crunches.

  3. Here's the web site, but it's hard to navigate, and the location map isn't too helpful.

  7. If you go to the Dongdaemun subway station exit 14 (like on the way to "fashion town" and apm and Migliore) and walk through the crowded sidewalk there will be street vendors on the right and on the left there is a place with mul mandu sticking out the window trust me it will be hard to not grab one and shove it in your mouth. It's all handmade there in the 식당 and the place has ramen and other stuff you can get at your basic 김밥천국 but believe me the mandu is to die for.
