There's a food that comes to mind in Summer. It's called 'Naengmyeon(cold noodles)'. Naengmyeon is divided into two main types. Bibim naengmyeon and mul(water)naengmyeon. It's a matter of conflict as much as jajangmyeon or jjamppong. Today, I will introduce 'Haeju Naengmyeon', a famous naengmyeon restaurant.

It's way past lunchtime, but there are still a lot of cars in front of the restaurant.

Once again, it was past three o'clock. It was too late for lunch and too early for dinner, but there were many people enjoying naengmyeon in the restaurant.

The kitchen is almost open.

There are many seats facing the wall, so it would be good to eat alone.

What you can't miss out on naengmyeon here is radish kimchi. It's very delicious, and it goes well with naengmyeon.

Dozens of naengmyeon bowls are laid out in advance. The naengmyeon comes out that fast, and the customers come and go so quickly.

The menu is very simple. Mul nangmyeon and bibim naengmyeon. In addition, you can add boiled dumpling, coolpis, and boiled egg. Maybe that's why cold noodles are served on the table almost at the same time as you order. At the speed of light!

I also ordered dumplings that I can't even order during the busy time.

I think bibim naengmyeon here is the best. It's like a lovely cat. The bibim naengmyeon souce is spicy and delicious. It's spicy but still charming that I can't stop eating. If you add radish kimchi, it adds sweet and sour taste, which makes your appetite more palatable. Oh, and I highly recommend hot broth. It's thick pepper-flavored broth that makes you sip even on hot days.
