Since its establishment in 1979, Gangseo Myeonok has specialized in crafting authentic memil naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles). The noodles are freshly made in-house, using high-quality buckwheat sourced from Bongpyeong in Gangwon-do, a region renowned for its premium buckwheat. What sets their memil naengmyeon apart is the exquisite broth, a harmonious blend of Korean beef brisket and the crisp, refreshing water of dongchimi (radish water kimchi). This unique combination results in a soup that’s both refreshing and subtly flavored, ensuring the noodles are tender and accessible to a wide array of palates. The restaurant is conveniently located near the Boeun Intercity Bus Terminal and the bustling Boeun Traditional Market.
