How were the water milmyeon and bibim milmyeon?

• Water milmyeon ₩9,000 × 2
• Bibim milmyeon ₩9,000

Before the milmyeon arrived, I started with the warm broth. It was savory with a clean umami finish, a nice way to wake up the appetite before the noodles. Warming up your mouth with the broth first and then having cool milmyeon lets the warmth and chill alternate, making the meal even more enjoyable.

The generously piled noodles and toppings looked refreshing at a glance. Both the water milmyeon and bibim milmyeon had their own distinct appeal, so it was easy to choose according to my mood.

Cold broth and chewy water milmyeon

Water milmyeon really lets you enjoy the combination of cold broth and chewy noodles. A sweet-and-tangy sauce came on top, adding a subtle seasoning to the broth.

In particular, eating the boiled egg and tender beef with the noodles added a mild flavor and made the bowl more substantial. Having bits of beef and egg among the noodles brought more variety in texture, and together with the broth it made for an even fuller flavor.

Sweet-and-tangy bibim milmyeon to wake up the appetite

Unlike water milmyeon, bibim milmyeon has seasoning thoroughly mixed through all the noodles. It is a sweet-and-tangy summer specialty that whets the appetite. The seasoning coated the chewy noodles evenly, so its flavor came through in every bite.

Why it is a good meal near the terminal

The biggest advantage of Samsam Milmyeon Main Branch is its excellent access right beside the terminal. If you are looking for refreshing milmyeon near the terminal, I recommend Samsam Milmyeon Main Branch for its clean broth and chewy noodles.
