At a small counter in Sokcho's Saemaeul neighborhood, Jindam turns handmade kalguksu into a meal with a beginning and an ending. The dough rests for 24 hours before it becomes chewy, housemade noodles. Try the chicken noodles first with perilla oil, then pour the remaining broth over sticky rice; or finish a dense, creamy soybean bowl with a little sweet red bean. Butter and salted roe offer a richer path through the same fresh noodles.
Pro tip
Plan for a full bowl rather than a quick noodle stop: the chicken kalguksu has a perilla-oil first course and a sticky-rice finish, while the soybean noodles end with red bean. The 14-seat counter works well for solo diners. Parking in front is limited; Naver points to a temporary public lot by Sokcho Beach's south gate, about two minutes away on foot.
