"Given its proximity to Japan, Busan has become home to many different styles of Japanese food. For a taste of how the city does ramen, head to popular Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient Nagahama Mangetsu in Haeundae. The restaurant allows diners to specify how long they want their noodles to be cooked, from a six-second dunk that yields a crispy texture to a softer chewiness at 33 seconds. Be sure to go right when it opens or you’ll have to compete with the rest of Busan for a seat." - Summer Sun-Min Lee
