Itaewon bone stew with yukjeon cold noodles at midnight: Nuri Maeul
Nuri Maeul Gamjatang Itaewon Branch is a 24-hour pork bone stew restaurant on the 2nd floor of a building right in front of Itaewon Station Exit 4 in Yongsan, Seoul. On a late-night stop after work, the order was a small soy-braised bone stew plus yukjeon mul naengmyeon (cold noodles with pan-fried beef), and the meat slid straight off the bone while the icy broth kept the sweet-salty braise feeling clean. Nuri Maeul Gamjatang Itaewon Branch is a solid pick for a filling late-night or hangover meal.
