How do you achieve the smoky flavor (bulmat) of Yeokdae Jjamppong?

We adhere strictly to the cooking standard of stir-frying 90 times. Because smoky wok flavor comes not from ingredients or seasonings but from handling the fire and the wok, seafood and vegetables are stir-fried over high heat for a designated period so the smoky aroma infuses the broth.

Does it taste the same at any store?

We ensure that all locations produce the same taste. The cooking process, golden-ratio sauce, and measurement standards refined while running directly managed stores are applied identically to all locations, and fresh Chinese-style noodles made with Yeokdae Jjamppong's exclusive recipe are supplied directly by headquarters.

Is delivery or takeout available?

All four directly managed locations offer delivery and takeout. Delivery orders can be placed via Baedal Minjok, Coupang Eats, Yogiyo, and Ddangyo, and pickled radish is packaged individually with delivery diners in mind.

How can I inquire about franchising?

Franchise inquiries are accepted at 1899-8033. Yeokdae Jjamppong applies the recipes, cooking processes, and store operating standards established while directly managing 4 branches identically to our franchise locations.
