| bibim naeng myun |
This restaurant had a small menu consisted of noodle dishes, soups and braised short ribs (galbi jjim). I was curious with the braised short ribs but was not ready to commit to one dish by myself especially considering the price of $48. So I opted for the bibim naeng myun which is a cold noodle dish with spicy sauce. Both my friends ordered the galbi tang which is short ribs soup.
Our orders came pretty fast and so were the side dishes (banchan). The side dishes were cucumber, napa cabbage kimchee and radish kimchee. There were okay and nothing special. They did go well with the soup which was a bit bland and my noodle sauce which was on the sweet side.
The galbi tang (short ribs soup) consisted of clear broth with potato starch noodle, egg, short rib and green onion. It came pretty plain and you are supposed to season to taste. I guess there was no MSG used. Rice was also served along the soup.
My bibim naeng myun was served on a stainless steel bowl with potato noodle on the bottom covered with cold red sauce. Then a few thinly slices pear were laid on top of the noodle followed by a few thinly slices cooked beef and topped off with half a hard boiled egg. Mixed your noodle well with the rest of the topping before chowing it down.

The red sauce was a mixture of red pepper sauce, grated pear, sugar and other spices. So it was a bit on the sweet side and of course a bit spicy as well. But because it was more sweet than savory I felt full pretty fast.
All in all a good experience. May not return there anytime soon.
