Weekend day trip from Seoul for pyongyang naengmyeon at Seoul Myeonok
Seoul Myeonok is a pyongyang naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodle) restaurant near Pyeongtaek Station in Gyeonggi, run by the same family for three generations over 60 years. Traveling from Seoul just for this bowl, the writer had pyongyang naengmyeon for ₩11,000 and a plate of domestic pork belly bossam for ₩30,000, and both the milky broth topped with pear, egg garnish and green onion, and the chewy pork were satisfying. Seoul Myeonok is recommended for anyone chasing affordable pyongyang naengmyeon plus a solid pork platter.
