Hongdae Korean restaurant with a two-seat main-view table: Anok

Anok is a hanok-style Korean restaurant in Hongdae, Seoul, about an 8-minute walk from Exit 9 of Hongik University Station. From a two-seat table with the main hanok view, the meal at Anok covered clear pork gomtang (bone broth soup), Pyongyang naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) and pork tail jjim (braised pork tail), each seasoned to taste with salt and pepper. Anok's food is clean and mild throughout, an easy meal that never feels heavy.
