The signature jang-kalguksu combines knife-cut noodles and hand-torn dough in a rich, spicy paste-based broth, so you enjoy two textures in one bowl. It is especially good for those who like spicy food.
If you prefer something milder, we recommend the clam kalguksu with its refreshing broth. With group seating, it also suits larger parties.
