Rice noodle shop by Sunae Station: trying Thai leng saep at Camon

Where is Camon Bundang Sunae Station Flagship, and is there parking?

Camon Bundang Sunae Station Flagship (까몬 분당수내역직영점) is at 17 Baekhyeon-ro 101beon-gil, Bundang-gu, Seongnam, Gyeonggi, South Korea, on the first floor of Chorim Plaza. It is open daily 11:00-21:00, with group seating, parking, takeout, reservations, delivery, Wi-Fi and high chairs.

This is my review of a rice noodle place in Seongnam, Camon Bundang Sunae Station Flagship. I'd gone out for the day with my boyfriend and we wanted a simple(?) meal, so we stopped at a noodle shop~!

The orange and red sign makes Camon easy to spot!! It's on the first floor of Chorim Plaza, and you get 1 hour of free parking in the building's underground car park.

We went in the early evening and there were still 2-3 tables taken! Rice noodles are light, so I think they're popular as diet food too~!

What's on the Camon menu, and how do you order?

The Camon menu runs from the signature rice noodles to fried rice, stir-fried noodles, banh mi and leng saeb (랭쌥, Thai pork spine stew). Here's what we ordered that day.

• Camon brisket rice noodles
• Leng saeb
• Cola

Today I finally tried leng saeb, a dish I'd been wanting to eat!!

At Camon you order at a kiosk and pay right away, so remember: order -> pay by card immediately!!

The Camon tableware was so cute and tiny haha

And of course an ice-cold cola, a must on a hot day!! haha

All the food was brought out at once, and doesn't it look totally generous!!

Is Camon's leng saeb okay if you dislike spices?

Camon's leng saeb is a sweet and spicy Thai pork spine stew, and the sauce had no spice flavor at all, so even someone who doesn't like spices could eat it comfortably. The best part was how tender the meat was and how easily it came off the bone.

I'd always just walked past leng saeb photos, and this time I finally took the challenge! (I'm one of those people who doesn't like spices.. haha)

They give you a plastic glove each so you can pick the bones up and gnaw~! The meat was so tender it came off the bone easily!! Not tough at all, just soft, +100 points for that

The sauce had zero spice flavor and was tangy, and it went really well with the meat!! There are a few trap chili peppers here and there, but they were pleasantly spicy too, so they tasted good. haha

The scallions and garlic in the sauce are delicious, so dunk the meat deep into the broth and scoop it up, and the leng saeb tastes even better~!!

There's a self-serve bar in front of the shop, so grab your pickled radish (danmuji), onions and the like yourself!

How big is the Camon brisket rice noodle portion, and how's the broth?

Camon's brisket rice noodles come on a big plate piled with noodles, bean sprouts and meat, so the portion was really large. Both the broth and the noodles were clean-tasting, and coriander is brought if you ask separately.

The hot-broth brisket rice noodles you can't skip at Camon! My boyfriend said he wanted something with broth too, so we ordered it, and the portion was seriously big and generous!!

A big plate full of noodles, bean sprouts and meat, and the portion was really huge!! The broth was clean, the noodles were clean, and when it's too hot the noodles can sometimes go mushy, but at Camon they're cooked just right and tasty, says my boyfriend's honest review!! lol

My boyfriend is a coriander-in-his-noodles guy.. if you ask separately they'll give you coriander!! I can't eat coriander so I passed.. haha

And even without coriander, the clean broth is so delicious~!

Was leng saeb plus rice noodles enough for two people?

Two of us ordered leng saeb plus rice noodles at Camon, and it was so much food and so filling that we left some behind ㅠ It was tasty though.. what a shame..

I went to Camon Bundang Sunae Station Flagship, a Sunae Station spot for a meal, and ate until I was truly stuffed~! The hot rice noodles were tasty and the leng saeb was tender. Next time I want to go back for the stir-fried noodles, bun cha and fried rice instead of rice noodles~!
