Miseongok 미성옥

Instead of the usual milky broth, this seolleongtang comes clear like gomtang, and the hanwoo beef in it is soft enough to fall apart. The shop sits in a narrow alley across from Myeongdong Cathedral, 250m from Euljiro-ipgu Station. Sip the plain broth first, then add pepper, eat the thin noodles, and only then tip in the rice. Radish kimchi is lightly sour, cabbage kimchi a little sweet. A teuk (large) bowl adds only two or three extra slices of meat, so hanwoo suyuk, boiled beef sliced on a plate, is the way to get more. Broth refills are given on request.
