There is some restaurant on Parking lot street that always has a long line up of Koreans outside of it... It's a small resaturant and the menu is in Korean...

Does anyone know what this place is and what the big deal is?

Thanks!

you're not talking about the japanese ramyun place, are you?

i don't know where parking lot street is, but know that there is a small ramyun place in hongdae that always has a line down the relatively quiet street that it's on.

dharma bum - that sounds about right. Actually, the restaurant appeared to be in a basement or something, because we could never exactly see the entrance to the restaurant, for... It did appear to be japanese though

hmm, well, it's not in the basement, but i do remember the entrance being somewhat weird. i only ate there once about a year ago, and thought it was pretty good - though maybe not worth the 30 minute wait.

There is no food or restuarant that I would wait in line for, for any lengthy period of time. Especially in Korea.

I know the place Dharma Bun is talking about. I've heard it's supposed to be highly renowned, which it must be judging from the lines. But you have to wait up to an hour, and people camp it out before opening.

I'm determined to wait it out someday.

Hell, I waited like 3.5 hours in Atlanta for the best burger ever, an hour for such incredible ramen should be worth it.

I've seen that before. I was told it is a Japanese place.
