• rude staff, good location

I see some mentions below of this being a loving hut restaurant – I don’t think they’re part of it anymore. There’s no signs indicating that they are anyway. I was finding it difficult to get to using google maps, not realizing gil meant street. If you know that it’s very easy! Just walk down the main insadong shopping street and you’ll see the alley off it labeled insadong 12 gil (Next to insadong 13 gil…). There’s a big banner with vegetarian written on it. It is very near ssamzie. The atmosphere is nice. I have long legs and couldn’t easily sit at the tables but I liked the traditional feel. The menu has pictures and English. I got the sesame noodle soup. I was going to order a salad too but the waitress walked off. Luckily I didn’t because the meal was huge! Three side dishes (kimchi, pickle and fake meat and cabbage mix) came with it. They were very nice. The soup was a tad bland- maybe I should have asked for chilli, but I guess that’s the style. I bought some ramen there too. The waitress was a bit brusque but not rude. The woman behind the counter for paying was outright unkind and rude. She snatched my money, served people when I was waiting and didn’t say thank you or smile even when I came back a few minutes later to buy more food. Purely because of her I wouldn’t go back unless I was in that area. The meal was good value – 8000.
