This is a great traditional Korean restaurant. Their chilled noodles are truly special! The staff is very friendly, and even though they don't speak English, you can easily get by using simple words and body language. It's also reasonably priced and has a spacious seating area. M
Refreshing cold noodle restaurant. Super fast servjce, down to earth setting. Broth is beef based though super elegant. Add vinegar and mustard to intensify it's flavor. Bibim nanmyeon is delicious, with a spicy kick. 15000 won per bowl. Worth it for a delicious fast meal.
