MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
Tucked in a quiet yet youthfully vibrant alley in Hapjeong-dong, Mipildam is an unpretentious little spot specializing in handmade mandutguk (dumpling soup) in northern Korean style. The recipe for this lightly flavored dish is based on the home recipe of the young owner couple’s grandmother, who was born and raised in Hwanghae Province, now in North Korea. The perfect combination of plump dumplings packed with juicy filling and the broth infused with subtle flavors (and without any additional artificial flavors) is not something a diner can easily resist. In addition to the signature soup, the menu offers seasonally updated traditional dishes that reflect the couple’s passion for serving good food. The seating layout accommodates solo diners as well as couples and friend groups.
