Bupyeong Makguksu 부평막국수
Incheon · Bupyeong, Gyeyang & Cheongna · Meal
Opened in the early 1970s, this noodle shop is known for makguksu, cold buckwheat noodles in a cloudy, mild broth. The bowl is topped with sliced radish, cucumber and a dab of seasoning, and diners often add fish sauce, vinegar and mustard to taste. The result is clean and a little earthy, easy for those who dislike heavy spice.
Portions are modest, so people sometimes order dumplings or pork on the side. The place is simple and fast, with a long-standing local clientele. It closes early in the evening, so lunch or an early dinner is safest.
Prices are low to moderate and may change.
Walk about 10 minutes from Bupyeong Station (부평역) on Incheon Subway Line 1. (Show a driver: 부평막국수)
