The Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: July 21 | Eater LA
"A well-regarded Pyongyang naengmyeon shop from Seoul quietly expanded to Southern California in partnership with Monica Kim, the chef and proprietor of Yellow Cow Barbecue in Gardena, taking over the former Magal BBQ on Eighth Street. The sleek but smoke-filled dining room showcases Seogwan’s elegant, fully organic U.S. buckwheat noodles served in the ethereal and subtle Pyongyang broth. The goldong naengmyeon is described as a drier set of tossed buckwheat noodles wrapped in a tight bun, topped with thin beef slices and surrounded by earthy banchan like seasoned mushrooms, sliced mu radish, and cucumbers; texture and nuttiness come from toasted perilla leaves and ground sesame seeds. Mix it all together for a satisfying precursor to top-notch tabletop barbecue, or enjoy it as a light lunch." - Eater Staff
