## In short

Yunujae Munhyeon Shabu Kalguksu is a house-made noodle shabu kalguksu (hand-cut noodle soup) restaurant in Daerim Munhyeon City Plaza in Munhyeon-dong, Nam-gu, Busan, where the noodle-making room is fully visible behind a glass wall. The writer watched the noodles being made, then ordered shabu kalguksu for two with a 140g sirloin add-on and ate it as a meat, noodle and fried rice course, refilling the self-bar of domestic napa cabbage kimchi. Between the noodles and the fried rice, Yunujae has become a regular spot with too many return visits to count.

The interior is done up in a clean white tone that suits both family meals and dates, and it's really pleasant. Every time I come, I notice how busy it is with customers too.

## The glass-walled noodle-making room you can watch from your table

On one side of Yunujae Munhyeon Shabu Kalguksu, there's a dedicated 'noodle-making room' right there, fully visible through a transparent glass wall! Inside, you can see bags of premium noodle-specific flour (Gompyo brand, made for strong noodle flour) stacked high, and a spotlessly maintained noodle machine, all with your own eyes.

## Unlimited domestic kimchi self-bar at Yunujae

Lots of people are particular about the kimchi when eating kalguksu, right? Yunujae Munhyeon Shabu Kalguksu makes its own kimchi fresh every day using domestic napa cabbage, following a recipe passed down from a kimchi master in Mokpo. There's a self-bar set up on one side of the restaurant where you can comfortably refill as much delicious napa cabbage kimchi and kkakdugi as you want — kimchi lovers, help yourselves generously!

## Naver receipt review event: a free serving of sirloin

Right now, they're running an amazing event where leaving a Naver receipt review gets you a full serving of sirloin for free! If you visit, don't forget to take part and load up on extra meat.

## Tablet ordering at every table

Every table has a T-order tablet installed! You can look at photos of the menu directly and order or make extra requests with just a touch, right from your seat, without calling a staff member — it's really convenient.

## Shabu kalguksu for two plus a 140g sirloin add-on: the full course

![Table setting of shabu kalguksu for two with a 140g sirloin add-on](https://img.superchart.com/images/munhyeon-dong-shabu-kalguksu-noodle-room/munhyeon-dong-shabu-kalguksu-noodle-room-10-12iwi-900.webp)

This time I ordered shabu kalguksu for two plus a sirloin add-on (140g)! Here, the course flows from a spicy broth loaded with minari (water dropwort) and tender sirloin, to house-made kalguksu noodles (with a few sujebi/hand-torn dough pieces mixed in!), and finally fried rice at the end — and it's absolutely fantastic.

![A pot of spicy shabu broth loaded with minari](https://img.superchart.com/images/munhyeon-dong-shabu-kalguksu-noodle-room/munhyeon-dong-shabu-kalguksu-noodle-room-11-m7wqc-900.webp)

In particular, the meat had no gamey smell at all and was tender, since they only use fresh beef — U.S. Choice grade and Australian S grade.

But what really made me a regular is the noodles. The owner apparently spent a whopping two years developing the house-made noodles to capture both the slickness of hand-cut kalguksu and the chewiness of Sanuki udon — and it shows, because the noodles are truly chewy and cling to your mouth perfectly. The food also comes out fast, so it's been satisfying every single time.

Following a recipe passed down directly from a kimchi master in Mokpo, they make their own kimchi fresh every day using domestic napa cabbage.

## The fried rice finish you can't stop eating, even when full

Honestly, this place is known for its shabu-shabu and kalguksu, but it deserves to be called a true fried rice spot too. They fry the rice in the rich, spicy broth that's been simmered with the meat and noodles — the umami really soaks in, and with plenty of fragrant minari mixed in, the texture and flavor are seriously no joke.

I was definitely full, but the moment that savory smell hit me, I picked my spoon back up and ended up scraping the pot clean. 🤣 No matter how full you are when you visit, you absolutely must save room for the fried rice!
