"As at other Korean restaurants, diners with metal chopsticks eat noodles out of metal bowls. Those bowls contain mul naengmyun, whose buckwheat noodles float in a spicy beef broth soup, topped with daikon kimchi, cucumber, beef slices, Asian pear, and half of a boiled egg. (There’s also bibim naengmyun for those who prefer a spicier option.) Also popular at this Shoreline destination are plates of chap chae, made with chewy potato-starch noodles that find their way into a number of Hae-Nam’s soups and stews." - Jay Friedman
