The day I went to see an expo at KINTEX, I ate three meals in three places. Just a short log.
01
Eulmildae, KINTEX branch
Pyongyang naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) is a food I love, and it was good this day too. The suyuk (boiled pork) looked rough-hewn but tasted great. A plate that skips the styling and wins on the meat.
02
Myeongdong Kyoja
The kalguksu has changed. It used to be a rich broth backed hard by garlic; this day the broth was noticeably lighter and the flavor of fried onion dominated. Like eating jjamppong at a Chinese place. Not the taste I knew.
03
Five Guys, Seoul Station
Train time closing in, so takeout. The burger tasted gloriously feral — delicious. The fries were good too.
