Gaehwa 개화

52-5, Namdaemun-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 중구 남대문로 52-5 대한문화예술공사)

Located only walking distance away from Myeong-dong's Chinese Embassy, Gaehwa boasts 50 years of tradition as the 3rd Chinese restaurant chain in Korea. Gaehwa's Jajangmyeon (black soy bean noodles) and Palbochae (stir-fried mixed seafood and vegetables) are extremely popular. This is a great place for a quick meal, as it serves plenty of food at affordable prices. A popular menu item made for the Japanese is a meal that allows customers to have 3 items of their choice. Gaehwa has been using the same traditional cooking style for 50 years, along with unchanging service values and the same comfortable atmosphere as a home.
