I've had it. I'm never ordering this shit again. Never once have I ordered it without it being a big assed pile of noodles and onions.

[chevro1et]

and what exactly did you expect when you ordered it?

Jajangmyeon is awesome. End of discussion.

Another poor sod realizes that Korean-Chinese food is rubbish.......with ja-jang-myun being the worst dish of them all.

So far, in Korea, only Jackie Chan's Kitchen has approached decent Chinese food, IMO.

You're supposed to eat the onions as a side.

Tastes good to me. I like to add red pepper flakes to give it more flavor.

The regular jajang is crap.

I get the 간짜장 or the 삼선간짜장.

As bizzare as it is,
THe best ja ja myung I've had was in America.
The stuff was laden with roasted pork, fine sizzled onions, and a salty sauce you could die for. The noodles were warm and firm but not chewy.

The stuff I've had in Korea has sucked thus far. I agree man, I don't think I will order it again here. It has speckles of pork, a throng of onions, and the sauce tastes like ground up rocks.

Try asking for it in Ga Form. They put the sauce on the side instead of mixing it already. It tastes much better despite the apparent lack of any logical reason why.

Tan Su Yook(Sweet and Sour pork) is much better. Its great with a big plate of Mandu. Sometimes I dunk the mandu in the sweet and sour sauce. Yummy. The closest thing you can get to American style Chinese food.

Blue totally sucks. I'm never going near blue again. Black totally rules.

The first time I had jajangmyun, I was expecting Shanghai noodles. The fact that my illusion was shattered made it taste worse than I otherwise would've thought.

[nosmallplans]

the reason your jajangmyun wasn't great is because you weren't eating it with a giant bowl of jahmpong! they go hand in hand dude. its like sashimi without meontang, something is lacking.

All of those dishes contain enough calories to KILL

Especially the black noodle pig slop.

Don't eat that crap and expect to lose weight, fatties.

This kind of belongs in the Korea 12 years ago thread, but it's more related to ja ja myung.

There used to be a place at the bottom of the hill when you walked out the back gate of Yonsei. Just down from the language institute, it was right across from the Yonsei men's basketball dorm. All the high school girls would be gathered outside screaming for them.

Anyway that was the best place for ja ja myung, it was their specialty dish and they were always packed at lunch time. If it's still there give it a try.
