Mandu (Korean dumplings) lovers rejoice! CHD sits inside a food court at this new North Park HMart, but this greatly exceeded my typical mediocre food court experience. These mandu are delicious .
Each mandu is freshly made with a crispy seared crust and a good filling-to-dough ratio (not overfilled or too much skin). The sampler platter is the best value for first-timers or someone who likes their variety. The jalapeno and shrimp mandus packed the best flavors and texture. As a small aside, they do provide very little dipping sauce so recommend asking for at least a couple of sauce containers.
Next time you're craving a quick meal, CHD's plump, juicy, and craveable Korean dumplings should do the trick. They even have large sets of frozen dumplings you can take home with you. Definitely something I look forward to...

jjolmyun was amazing. Portion size was big and it also tasted great. surprisingly the cheese katsu that came with it tasted really good. Kinda felt bad for the katsu place next door. mix of dumpling was also good. The mandus have really chewy covers, which I really liked. The chili pepper and shrimp mandus were my favorites.
Service was meh. We ordered 3 dishes but they know gave us one napkin. Also they forgot to give us dumpling dipping sauce. I had to go back to the counter to...
