Pyongyang naengmyeon, the cold noodle dish from the North that Seoul has quietly claimed as its own, is the reason to come here. This Korean noodle shop in Gangnam serves the style straight: pale, chewy buckwheat noodles in a broth so clear and restrained it almost seems like a dare. The chef spent two decades in older Pyongnaeng houses before opening this one, and mandoo and bulgogi round out a menu that doesn't stray far from the classics.
