Mosan Sujebi 모산수제비

Mosan Sujebi is a sujebi (hand-torn dough soup) and kalguksu restaurant in Baebang-eup, Asan, Chungnam, with deulkkae-sujebi (perilla seed sujebi) as the defining dish. The broth is dense and nutty, almost reminiscent of kongguksu (cold soy milk noodle soup), and the dough pieces are silky enough to slide down effortlessly. The eolkeuni-kalguksu takes the opposite approach with a heavy dose of chili powder for a sharp, peppery punch. Ordering one bowl of each and sharing is the recommended strategy, as the rich sesame depth of the sujebi and the fiery kick of the kalguksu complement each other well. Yeolmu-kimchi and kkakdugi carry a pleasant sweetness that earns praise in their own right. The restaurant operates on a prepay system, and dishes arrive almost instantly upon seating, though even weekday visits may involve a wait due to strong demand. The location pairs naturally with a day trip to Onyang Hot Springs or a stroll along the Gokgyo-cheon ginkgo tree path.
