Yookssam Nengmyun (육쌈냉면)

My third nengmyun review… this can only mean one thing… it’s bloody hot. It’s bloody hot, and I love my nengmyun. Here’s another to add to the list of awesome nengmyun places. According to my girlfriend, this restaurant chain was the original nengmyun house to offer meat (갈비) along with nengmyun, a welcome change that’s swept through Korea. I really like it. From the hundreds of celebrity pictures and signatures on the walls, this restaurant also boasts its celebrity appeal.

The menu is nice and simple. Only 1.Water nengmyung (moolnengmyun 물냉면) 2.Spicy Nengmyung (Beebeem nengmyun 비빔냉면), 3. An option for a larger portion size (kopbehgee (곱배기) 4. Options for more meat 5. And, literally translated, fist rice (joomukbab 주먹밥).

Water Nengmyun (mool nengmyun 물냉면) 5,200₩

Add spicy sauce, vinegar, and mustard to taste.

The Fist Rice (joo-muk-bab 주먹밥) is very unique. I’ve never seen this style of giving customers rice and a glove and letting them have their way. While it was pretty entertaining I felt something was lacking in the flavor. The texture and everything was there, and certainly it was flavorful, I’m accustomed to finding a salt bomb of tuna or kimchi in my 주먹밥. It was good though, I won’t say otherwise.

Fist Rice (joo-muk-bab 주먹밥) 2,000₩
