True to its name, Donggok Jemyeon makes fresh noodles in-house every day. What stood out was that they're made with just flour, water, and salt — no additives — and they don't get soggy even sitting in broth for a while ![Fresh homemade noodles made in-house](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-08-a6f75-966.webp) ![Fresh noodles stored in the fridge with date labels attached](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-09-1jyf5-966.webp) They actually keep the noodles made that day in the fridge with date labels attached, so you can see the freshness with your own eyes.

Even though it's a set for two, the portions were so generous the whole table felt packed ### Seafood chive pancake (haemul buchujeon) ![Seafood chive pancake topped with shrimp and squid](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-14-1t781-966.webp) ![Piece of seafood chive pancake cut with scissors](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-15-fiteq-966.webp) It was a chive pancake generously topped with shrimp and squid. Scissors and tongs came with it so we could cut it easily, and with the chive aroma still vivid and the seafood packed in generously, it was plenty for two people ### Beef bone-broth kalguksu vs. yukgaejang kalguksu ![Hanwoo bone-broth kalguksu topped generously with green onion and chives](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-16-8q423-966.webp) ![Yukgaejang kalguksu loaded with meat and green onion](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-17-1gryq-966.webp) The bone-broth kalguksu that comes standard with the set had a milky broth that was rich yet clean, topped generously with green onion and chives. The one we swapped for yukgaejang kalguksu was spicy and packed with ingredients like meat and green onion, perfect for when you're craving a fiery broth ![Noodles and meat lifted up together with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-18-1ud4z-966.webp) Lifting the noodles with chopsticks, meat came up naturally along with them — that's how loaded with toppings it was. Both bowls kept that chewy texture from the homemade noodles all the way to the end ## Side dishes, Donggok makgeolli and the free yogurt drink Donggok Jemyeon's side dishes were kimchi and seasoned chili pepper, and the Donggok makgeolli was served in dedicated bowls to pour and drink from. ![Kimchi and seasoned chili pepper side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-19-s0xmj-966.webp) ![Donggok makgeolli poured into a dedicated bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-20-1yhxx-966.webp) ![Yogurt served to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-21-mg1rx-966.webp) The side dishes were kimchi and seasoned chili pepper, both mild and clean-tasting, so they went well as bites between the pancake and the kalguksu. Drinking the Donggok makgeolli from its dedicated bowl added to the atmosphere, and toward the end of the meal they gave us each a yogurt, which was a nice clean way to finish ## Is Donggok Jemyeon in Dongseong-ro worth it? Final verdict ![Table wrap-up shot after finishing the meal at Donggok Jemyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner/dongok-jemyeon-dongseongno-makgeolli-dinner-22-enxgj-966.webp) To sum up, if you want to properly try homemade-noodle kalguksu among Dongseong-ro, Daegu restaurants, I'd recommend Donggok Jemyeon Daegu Dongseong-ro Main Branch.
