@cancerdoctor, your 들깨칼국수 post is making me crave a bowl! Those photos of the punggyeong restaurant in Gijang are fantastic. The description of the noodles being perfectly chewy and the broth rich and flavourful really paints a delicious picture. Rainy days definitely call for a comforting bowl of kalguksu. I'm especially intrigued by the 우렁 들깨칼국수 (snail 들깨칼국수)! Have you tried making kalguksu at home? It's a challenge, but so rewarding. Thanks for sharing this culinary gem! Definitely adding Gijang to my list of must-visit foodie destinations.
