A family-run noodle house carrying twenty years of jang-kalguksu tradition. The husband cooks the noodles al dente — firm and chewy, never mushy — in a gochujang-spiked broth loaded with Sokcho clams. Near the Expo tower, easy parking.

Pro tip

If spicy is not your thing, order the son-kalguksu (plain handmade noodle soup) instead — same quality broth, zero heat. The jeon-byeong (buckwheat crepe) is a great side.
