I visited Jangwongap Kalguksu Yongin Giheung Branch with my family. Starting with brisket and minari wraps, then having kalguksu and finishing with fried rice, made the meal feel like a course in its own right. What stayed with me most was stretching the fresh noodles myself and dipping the cooked noodles in sesame oil.

## Where is it, and what were parking and the wait like?

The restaurant is on the first floor of a large commercial building at 90 Gomae-ro, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do. It was easy to find, and parking was spacious during my visit. There was pine landscaping at the entrance.

There was a wait when I visited. I could register through Catchtable, and there was a corner with free ppongtwigi (puffed rice snacks) and fried snacks to eat while waiting.

## What are the “cheese noodles” like?

Banners throughout the restaurant described 60 years of noodle-making technique passed down from the grandmother's generation, using water, nuruk salt, and flour. They called their house-made noodles, kneaded a thousand times, “cheese noodles.” The name refers to their elastic stretch, like cheese pulling into long strands.

The restaurant explained that the noodles' texture changes with cooking time: chewy at 6 minutes, more springy at 7, bouncy at 8, fluffy after absorbing broth at 9, and soft at 10 minutes.

## How did we eat the brisket and minari wraps with kalguksu?

Before adding the noodles, we briefly blanched the wagyu chadolbagi (thin-sliced beef brisket). I piled plenty of minari (water celery) onto the meat for wraps and dipped them in sesame-oil sauce. The meat's rich aroma was joined by the herbal minari and nutty sesame oil.

Before putting the kalguksu into the boiling broth, I pulled a strand of fresh noodle from both ends. It stretched long without breaking easily, and I could feel its elasticity. I ate the cooked noodles plain first, then lightly dipped them in sesame oil. The added nuttiness was memorable.

## What were the kimchi and seafood pajeon like with the kalguksu?

The restaurant said its Uiseong garlic kimchi is made in-house three times a day with domestically grown garlic from Uiseong. It added more savory depth when placed on the noodles.

We also had the whole-shrimp seafood pajeon (scallion pancake). Its thin batter contained whole shrimp, squid, and octopus. It was crisp outside and moist inside.

## What was the kkakdugi fried rice like at the end?

For the final dish, we had perilla-oil kkakdugi fried rice. It contained well-fermented kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) and powdered seaweed, with the nutty flavor of perilla oil. We finished the meal by scraping it right down to the bottom of the pot.
