While it won't win any awards for its decor, this three-decades old, round-the-clock joint is beloved for its heart-warming rendition of the Korean beef-noodle soup seolleongtang. It's served with a full range of traditional Korean side dishes, including spicy kimchi. Look for a steaming bowl of noodles on the street outside.
