Oegojip Seolleongtang 외고집설렁탕

The broth looks clear yet is rich enough to make the lips stick slightly, and it comes to the table fully seasoned, with no salt needed. A bundle of thin wheat noodles (somyeon) sits in each bowl; most people eat those first, then add rice. The regular and the large (teuk) differ little in meat. The restaurant is near Samseong Jungang Station, offers valet parking and works well for a solo meal. Doganitang, a knee-cartilage soup, and the boiled cartilage plate are simmered until soft, with big pieces and no gamey smell.
