It's raining like a day is far away these days! When the changing weather envelops my whole body, I can't help but think of a bowl of cold noodles that will keep you cool. Among cold noodles, let's take a look at “Pyongyang Naengmyeon,†which combines thick broth with savory soba noodles to add flavor. From places that have a history of over 50 years to places where a representative from North Korea opened their doors, and places filled with plenty of sincerity in one bowl! Here are 5 of the best Pyongyang cold noodle restaurants in the country presented by a master of life.
1. 'Jiseong Myeonok' in Seongbuk-dong, Yongin, full of flavor of meat broth

â–²Price: Skin Yangnyeon 10,000 won, pork meat 14,000 won
â–²Testimonial (Shikigin Koit): The appeal of Pyongyang cold noodles is that the broth has a deep flavor that is not as simple as it seems. This restaurant also has an attractive broth, so I'd like to introduce it as a delicious Pyongyang cold noodle restaurant. The smoked-flavored meat and broth are slightly sweet, and the meat broth is rich. The soba noodles are firm, soft, and easy to roll over. When you're thirsty, when you want to avoid heavy food… It's perfect. A friend I went to with said it was a master's house, but that's not accurate. ^^ There was bibimbap and beef, and all the people I took had delicious meals, so if you're near Suji, I recommend this place!
2. 'Daedongmyeonok' in Gyesan-dong, Daegu, with a rich fragrance that stimulates the five senses

â–²Price: Pyongyang cold noodles 9,000 won, Korean beef (small) 25,000 won
â–²Review (I want to eat Mapo noodles): One of the top 3 cold noodle restaurants in Daegu. First of all, this was a passing point for noodles. I was satisfied with both the aroma and texture of the soba because of its high content. The broth was unique, but it had a strong aroma and strong acidity. I don't know what kind of acidity it is, but it was edible. The bibimbap naengmyeon I ordered together was also fine. If I think of cold noodles, I thought it would be okay to go here.

▲Opening hours: 11:30 — 20:00 every day, closed on Mondays
â–²Price: Traditional Pyongyang cold noodles 10,000 won, Daewon Ok Bibim cold noodles 10,000 won
â–²Review (Shikigin Macaron: 2500 won): I think it's a famous pyeongnaengjip in South Gyeonggi with Dr. Ko Pyeongtaek. The pickles and noodles have changed compared to before, but in conclusion, I am personally satisfied because the appearance is beautiful and the flavor of the soba has increased. I recommend that you try it because the soup has a rich style of soy sauce and is not cold, but it also has a unique flavor.
5. Goyang Hyoja-dong's “Manpo Myeonok Main Storeâ€, richly flavored with beef brisket broth

â–²Review (Shikigami Ryu): My family's favorite cold noodle restaurant. It's close to Eulmildae and the taste is good, but it's still a taste I've eaten since I was a kid, so I moved to the store for the 3rd time, but I kept looking for it.
