Decided on the menu while waiting and soon, we were informed that our table was ready. To our surprise, the staff let us into a private room. Wow!
Yes, we ordered Set A and upsized the jjajangmyeon plus added a fried egg to top it up. Additionally, we got the seafood pancake.

Interestingly, one could choose the spice level for the jjampong at Itaewon Jjajang. Tracy selected Level 3 out of 4 levels and the staff was amused. She asked us if we really wanted to do Level 3 as it will be spicy. Keke!
Indeed, the jjampong turned out to be spicier than what we normally would order but still bearable (if one doesn't drink up the soup!) The spicy kick was sharp and noticeable once you drink the soup, stays only for a short while in the mouth (thankfully!) and then it travels down slowly to the belly while freeing up the tastebuds again.
Next up, I've long heard about the jjajangmyeon here so was excited to try it. The sauce was thick and gooey, and flavourful. Enjoyable.

To tell the truth, I was more interested in the tangsuyuk rather than the noodles on that day. The version here was pretty good with the batter remained crisp and the sauce not overly sweet.

Unexpectedly, we were wowed by the seafood pancake. For me, it tasted eggy with crisp edges. Plus, not too oily. Eating this makes me want to have beer, or makgeolli!

I liked the pickles here, and we ordered seconds for the pickled cabbage. So good!
