Best Dishes Eater LA Editors Ate This Week: April 7 | Eater LA
"The reviewer invokes the Korean saying "이열치열 (ee-yul-chi-yul)" — fighting fire with fire — while describing a near-frozen bowl of naengmyeon eaten while battling a head cold; the cold buckwheat noodles arrived in a slushy metal bowl, but adding vinegar and hot mustard "brought out more of the profound beefiness of the broth," with the mustard helping to clear sinuses. Family members’ steaming bowls of seolleongtang (hot brothy bone marrow soup with aromatics and shredded beef) were the expected remedy, but the reviewer found the cold broth similarly restorative, and the crisp cucumber and kimchi radish provided a refreshing, vitamin-rich boost." - Eater Staff
