Jangsunru 장순루
Gongju · Gyeryongsan: Gapsa & Donghaksa · Meal
A Chinese-Korean restaurant famous for chili jjamppong, a noodle soup made with spicy green Cheongyang peppers. The heat is real, so ask about milder options if you are not used to it. The place focuses on lunch and is closed Mondays.
Prices are moderate. On weekends a wait is common, so a weekday visit is easier, and the dining room is plain and busy. Staff speak little English but the menu is simple.
It is close to the road between the reservoir and the temples, which makes it a handy lunch stop on a driving day through the Gyeryongsan area.
A car or taxi is best, about 25 minutes from Gongju. Parking on site. (Show a driver: 장순루)
