Today’s Featured Restaurant – Gaehangmyeon

The restaurant I’m introducing today is called Gaehangmyeon. I actually visited it for the first time on the same day I’m writing this post! I happened to stop by while filming a video about Incheon’s Chinatown and the nearby Open Port Area — and I was starving.

Maybe it was because I had no expectations,
but I was immediately impressed by the flavors!

Of course, taste is subjective, so take this as a personal recommendation — but one worth trying!

Menu – Handmade Noodles Are the Star!

Here are the main dishes featured at Gaehangmyeon:

Onsu-myeon (Warm Broth Noodles)(온수면)
Rich broth simmered for 12 hours with beef bones, paired with fresh handmade noodles developed in collaboration with Gwangshin Noodles — this is the restaurant’s signature item.
Bibim-myeon (Spicy Mixed Noodles)(비빔면)
A special gochujang and doenjang-based sauce is mixed with beef, egg yolk, and assorted vegetables. Served over handmade noodles. Gaehangmyeon’s flagship spicy dish.
Spicy Onsu-myeon(매운 온수면)
A fiery twist on the original Onsu-myeon — featuring spicy homemade chili oil and minced meat for that extra kick.
Yukjeon Deopbap (Beef Pancake Rice Bowl)(육전 덮밥)
Three to four slices of tender beef pancake made from flat iron steak, served over rice with sautéed sliced onions in a soy-based sauce.
Buchu Mandu (Garlic Chive Dumplings)(부추 만두)
Juicy handmade dumplings made in-house. A great side dish to pair with the noodles.
Chamnamul Bossam (Boiled Pork with Korean Herbs)(참나물 수육)
Top-quality Korean pork boiled fresh daily and served with chamnamul (Korean wild greens) and yuzu dressing — an unexpectedly delightful combination.
Gaehang-ro Lager Beer(개항로 라거)
A craft beer brewed especially to pair with Gaehangmyeon’s dishes. Perfect combo!
