Do you like it? Because I think it's delicious. I never hear foreigners talking about it, so I am curious...

I love jangjangmyeon but I've found myself very disappoint with the stuff I've tried here besides the stuff my school serves up. I grew up on my Mom's jangjang and I make it myself, so it's hard to find something that compares.

I found this really great jangjang place in a small town that I work at. Other places can really be hit or miss. I find that it only tastes good if it is piping hot.

It's cheap nasty junk food............But, unlike most junk food, it doesn't even taste good!!!

Worst 'Chinese' food in the world.

I never let it darken my door.

Nasty stuff! Luckily I was not single on the 14th of this month. Some of the better Chinese places serve a "Szechwan"" jjajjang which is slightly less awful.

I like it but I'm baffled by it's popularity. I mean, it's pretty good, it's not like it's fantastic.

I'll eat it, but I won't go out of my way to.

I don't mind about half of the standard bowl, but it has to be piping hot. Once it gets down to room temperature, it turns into a goopy disgusto mess.
