Sarangson Patjuk 사랑손팥죽

This restaurant specializes in Patjuk (red bean soup) but also offers noodle dishes. All dishes with Patjuk on the menu are vegan by default, including Patjuk with noodles, Patjuk with rice cakes, and Patjuk with five grain dumplings. In the summer, Kongguksu is also available and can be made vegan by omitting the egg topping. There may be additional vegan-friendly dishes if the Yeolmu Kimchi does not contain fish sauce, but this was unclear during my visit. The Patjuk served here is made with hand-cut noodles, while the Patjuk with rice cakes is called Dongji Patjuk and the version with special dumplings made with five different grains is called Ogok Patjuk. The soup base is strained for a refined texture, with a mild flavor that can be seasoned with salt or sugar. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and well-lit. #Veganuary

All dishes with patjuk are vegan by default, such as patjuk with noodles, patjuk with rice cake, and patjuk with five grain noodles. In the summer, they also offer Kongguksu, which can be made vegan by skipping the egg topping. When I inquired about the Yeolmu dish containing Kimchi fish sauce, I received conflicting answers twice. If it is truly vegan, there would be two more vegan-friendly options. The basic Patjuk here is served with hand-cut noodles (Kalguksu) and the Patjuk with rice cake is called Dongji Patjuk. Another option is the special dumplings with five different grains, Ogok Patjuk. The soup base is smooth and well-balanced with no overpowering flavors. The taste is mild, allowing diners to season it with salt or sugar according to their preferences. The portion sizes are generous and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and well-lit. #Veganuary
