Yeongil Bunsik 영일분식

Food lands almost as soon as you sit: bibim kalguksu, thick knife-cut noodles tossed in a spicy dressing, is mixed ahead in a huge basin and portioned out as orders come in. Perilla powder and sesame oil make it nutty rather than fiery, and it comes lukewarm, unlike chilled bibim noodles. Kalguksu in anchovy and clam broth is the hot alternative.
