Inside Sinju Okmi: the self-serve somyeon and kimchi bar

The inside of Sinju Okmi Gangnam Branch was bigger than I expected. The self-serve bar has noodles and several kinds of kimchi.

What two people ordered: pork gukbap and spicy fern sundaeguk

I ordered the sticky rice scorched rice pork soup, and my boyfriend ordered the special spicy bracken fern master's sundaeguk.

Both are gukbap, but since we each picked something different, we got to enjoy a wider range of flavors than if we'd both ordered the same thing.

My sticky rice scorched rice pork soup sounded hearty just from the name, and eating the warm pork soup along with sticky rice scorched rice gave it a different taste from an ordinary pork soup.

On a day when I'm craving soup, having a warm bowl of this really filled me up — very satisfying.

This would especially suit anyone who loves hot soup dishes like pork soup or sundaeguk. If you're looking for a Gangnam Station sundaeguk restaurant and want another gukbap to try alongside it, there's a good range of menu options here to pick from depending on your taste.

Special spicy bracken-fern master's sundaeguk

My boyfriend ordered the special spicy bracken fern master's sundaeguk. It was clearly different from my sticky rice pork soup, so we shared bites of each — the spicy broth with bracken fern in it made for a distinctive flavor.

If you like a spicy, fiery-hot gukbap, this menu would suit you well.

When visiting as a couple, I'd recommend each ordering something different and sharing. I had the sticky rice pork soup, my boyfriend had the spicy fern sundaeguk, and it gave us more variety and let us taste two different soups.
