Quick answer
- What: Thai noodles that double as a hangover cure, on the 2nd floor in Yeonnam-dong.
- Getting there: short walk from Hongik Univ. Station Exit 3.
Where a Yeonnam-dong lunch meeting ends up: a Thai place one floor up, a short walk from Hongik Univ. Station Exit 3, where the noodles double as a hangover cure.
The sign says "Vacation Restaurant." No flight, just a staircase. A one-hour holiday at lunch.
The stairwell is lined with menu posters: crab curry (pu phat pong), chili crab, braised pork rice.
Inside: rattan chairs, warm lights, a sea mural on the wall. Nice atmosphere.
Kundaeng noodles ("sticky noodles")
I ordered this to get over a rough night. It does the job. Halfway through I added the chili, and it was even better spicy.
Stir-fried morning glory
Tastes fine. The portion is small, though. A few bites and the leaf plate was empty.
