Is Jeong’s Jjajang Worth It? Menu & Prices in Singapore

Some of Singapore’s best Korean food hides in a Bukit Merah coffeeshop — or it did, until Jeong’s Jjajang grew up and moved to Killiney Road. What started as a cloud kitchen run by Jeong Jun Seong, a Daegu native with 20-plus years in Korean kitchens, became a cult for one reason: jjajangmyeon with noodles made from scratch, tossed in glossy black-bean sauce the proper Korean-Chinese way.

The Somerset menu keeps the soul but adds polish: jjajangmyeon from S$11.99, ganjjajangmyeon (dry version) from S$20.79, tangsuyuk from S$22.44, and the XL jaengbanjja jjajangmyeon at S$36.19. The original stall’s S$5.90 weekday lunch deal remains the stuff of legend.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jeong’s Jjajang Singapore

It moved from its original Bukit Merah coffeeshop stall to 75 Killiney Road, about six minutes on foot from Somerset MRT. The new shop is bigger and more polished but keeps the handmade-to-order noodles. Hours are Tuesday–Sunday 11.30am–3pm and 5.30pm–10pm, closed Mondays.

Jjajangmyeon starts from S$13.90 at the Killiney Road shop — up from the S$6.50–S$8 hawker-stall days, reflecting the central location. Jjampong runs about S$20.79 (S$18.59 at lunch). It is still cheaper than most Korean restaurants, where the same bowl easily crosses S$18.

A lunch-only combo (S$17.90) pairing jjajangmyeon with tangsuyuk, the sweet-and-sour pork — the two pillars of Korean-Chinese cuisine in one sitting. It is the best-value order for first-timers who cannot choose between noodles and the crispy pork. Available during lunch hours only.

Yes — the noodles are made to order on the premises, and you could watch the dough go through the noodle maker at the old stall. The springy, chewy texture is the main reason regulars followed the move to Killiney Road. Factory noodles would not survive the comparison.

Jjajangmyeon itself is not spicy at all — sweet-savoury black bean sauce, kid-friendly. Jjampong carries a manageable, enjoyable heat rather than a stomach-churning one. If you are spice-shy, stick to jjajangmyeon, tangsuyuk or the pancakes and you will be completely comfortable.

Conclusion

The Jeong’s Jjajang menu in Singapore survived the move from Bukit Merah to Killiney Road with its soul intact: handmade noodles, a S$13.90 jjajangmyeon and the S$17.90 lunch-only tangjjamyeon. Prices rose with the Somerset postcode, but it remains the most honest Korean-Chinese cooking per dollar in town. Go at lunch for the best prices.
