Nangmyun. Cold noodle dish in their "special" chilled broth. Is it Donchimi broth?

Bibim Makguksu. The sauce isn't overpowering. It has just enough liquid for easy mixing.

Steamed Mandu. The color isn't the usual golden colored dumplings you'll find at other places, because it's made out of buckwheat flour.

Udon. It looks kind of plain at first glance. But, the broth is out of this world. My husband stole my chrysanthemum greens.

Edit: This is our 3rd time eating here. What's in their "special" broth for the Nangmyun? Is it dongchimi broth? Please say it is so, because those broths help with digestion- packed with a bunch of other electrolytes and healthy probiotics. What more can I say that's different? Well, we couldn't just order the new items without eating the previous meals too. (They were that good.) You'll definitely suffer from FOMO as you ponder which you'll order from the menu. I highly encourage you to try them all, eventually. Today's highlights are the fried mandu and the vegetable jeon. One of my kids said that it tastes like home. It tastes like... your mom bought the best ingredients to make your food. As we bit into the mandu, we marveled at the crispy and delicate mandu wrappers. How is it so thin and yet tough enough for my kids to slap it with the fork? How sad we were to drop one mandu~ It was difficult to resist the 5 second rule. The jeon, a.k.a. "pancakes," were crispy on the edges; The young man who takes the order obviously has great pride because he's very helpful at making recommendations. At one point, when we couldn't decide, he returned with a small bowl of savory broth. The owner is available to answer your questions you may have as well. Perhaps I shouldn't write such a glowing review. What if too many customers show up and I'll have to wait long for my food? For now, the only negative thing I can say about eating here is that you might overeat. Original Review: This restaurant has been around since 1993 in Korea. It had featured in MBC, SBS, and KBS for their unique use of buckwheat in all their dishes. The restaurant name is "Yes! Buckwheat." They really should've been, "Oh, yes! Buckwheat" or "Oh, my gosh! Buckwheat" because every spoonful and every morsels were that delicious. My kids are hard to please. But, they absolutely loved the Nangmyun- the cold noodles. The broth was so refreshing. Mmm~ My husband's Bibimguksoo- the spicy cold noodles were so good that I kept taking some from his bowl. The sauce was... perfect. It wasn't overly spicy with overdone gochujang that leaves a bitter aftertaste. The way they arranged the vegetables was pleasing to the eyes. And, my Udon? It was the best I ever had- Not salty like other places. After we were finished eating, we just had to try the steamed Mandu- Korean dumplings. Yum! The only caveat is that it has ground beef. Sorry, vegetarians. Now, let's talk about the noodles. Each of the noodle dishes, although made with yes, buckwheat, were all so different and made to perfection. I make my own pastas and mandu wrappers using whole wheat and ground oats. So, I know it's not easy making noodles with anything other than typical flour. I can't believe how delicious Yes! Buckwheat noodles are! So chewy. Whenever I stole a bite of my husband's bibimguksu, I couldn't take just a little bite because the noodles stretched and stretched as I wrapped them around my chopsticks. My Udon noodles were soft but not too soft. It tasted better than any Japanese restaurant's Udon. The biggest surprise for me is Nangmyun. I've never eaten such noodles with Nangmyun. My father's side of the family came from N. Korea. So, I grew up eating lots of Nangmyun with buckwheat noodles. Yes! Buckwheat is unique. Surprisingly addictive. I must go back. Soon. For those of you who haven't tried Nangmyun, I'll quote from NPR's article: "Italy has its pasta salad, and China its cold sesame noodles. But there are few places where cold noodles are held in as high esteem as in Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea. Naengmyeon, as it's called, is enjoyed both in the sweltering heat of summer, and the frigid depths of winter, and on both sides of the heavily fortified border between the two Koreas. This dish for all seasons originates in North Korea." (North Korean cold noodle master brings northern tastes to Seoul. August 15, 20225:43 PM ET. Heard on All Things Considered)

We've been to Yes! Buckwheat (aka, Yae Mae Mil) several times now, an eatery that replaced the previous Bu Ddu Mak.We have enjoyed their freshly made buckwheat noodles, but our recent experiences have been mediocre:+the Memil Bibim Malguksu isn't made correctly consistently, missing various toppings/ingredients; the noodles also seemed to not have been drained properly, so the dish, overall, was just super wet+the Steamed Memil Mandu tasted pretty good, but they weren't serve piping hot; not sure if they were just flash-steamed to just warm them up? The soy sauce dipping sauce could have been more spicier to complementService is always friendly.Ample seating in the food court, and plenty of parking in the large plaza lot.+inconsistent dishes+housemade buckwheat noodles+friendly service+located inside K Market's food court+ample seating & parking

New food vendor inside kmarket food court. Lady was really nice. 2. memil bibim makguksu/spicy cold buckwheat noodle w. Mixed vegetables. Was ok. Veggies were mostly just cabbage. 8. Buckwheat pancake. Was my fav. Nice and chewy.Will Def be back to try other menu items. They also gave us a small complimentary bottle of water which was nice. Kmarket food court doesn't offer cups of water. After eating didn't feel heavy and bloated which was nice^^
