When traveling in North Korea, you can find business opportunities everywhere: buying on behalf of others, selling instant noodles, becoming a Chinese teacher, telling through novels, etc., are all businesses that make a fortune. And more netizens in the group sighed after eating a bowl of cold noodles: My family ramen is only 1 US dollar, meat is more, I went to North Korea to sell cold noodles, as long as 1 US dollar can make a fortune.
North Koreans have a fondness for cold noodles, and there are distinguished guests at home, eating cold noodles, even on snowy days. And pay attention to "first behind the wine", that is, on the delicious kimchi, first drink a cup of shochu of more than 30 degrees to warm the appetite, and then put the slippery cold noodles into the stomach. In 2014, Pyongyang cold noodles were also shortlisted for the national intangible cultural heritage, and were called the "Four Famous Foods of Pyongyang" along with warm rice, mullet soup and mung bean pancakes. North Koreans also wrote a special song "Song of Cold Noodles"
The world's first delicacy.
Men and women, young and old,
Scramble to eat noodles.
Yikes! It tastes really good,
This bowl is not enough for me to eat.
Wow hahahaha! The Yuliu Hall is the pride of Pyongyang.
noodles, noodles, Pyongyang noodles,
The bride and groom come to eat noodles,
A hundred years of good cooperation with the sea oath mountain alliance.
Yikes! What a pain!
Both men and women come to two large bowls!
Wow hahahaha! Yuliuguan is the pride of the nation.
Yes, from this lyric, we can understand that the best cold noodle restaurant in North Korea is Yuliu hall. The tour guide took us to this big hotel covering an area of more than 6,000 square meters, and it is said that people can sell more than 10,000 bowls of cold noodles a day.
When we entered the hotel, we found that there are three kinds of cold noodles here, and the prices are different.
The most expensive one is called copper plate meat noodles. According to the tour guide, this kind of cold noodles was previously only eaten by people in the palace, and the YuliuGuan was upgraded with reference to the secret recipe of the palace, and it is the top cold noodle in North Korea. This cold noodle is made of tall copper plates as a container, and there are 400 grams of soba noodles, 280 grams of chicken, and ingredients such as eggs, pear slices, cucumber slices, etc., which are delicious. We didn't eat it this time because we needed to make a reservation in advance.
The most sold is Pyongyang cold noodles, which we eat. Cold noodles are placed in a copper bowl, with rarely garnished pork slices, kimchi slices, cucumber slices and other ingredients, and we usually eat in China is not the same, people this cold noodles do not put eggs in it. Objectively speaking, this cold noodle taste is the same thing, after all, our stomachs prefer hot noodles.
What makes us even more unbearable is that the cold noodles will be cold in the stomach, and the tour guide will bring an ice cream per person, saying that this needs to be eaten. In order to prevent stomach trouble, we gave ice cream to the guide girl, and people ate three in one breath.
This bowl of noodles is really not cheap, we looked at the price: $4, about our 30 dollars or so. The netizens in the group are home to open a ramen restaurant, and he told us that the cost should be no more than 1 US dollar, and the rest is earned.
The third is called copper plate noodles. We looked at the people around us and compared them. This kind of noodles is similar to the cold noodles in Pyongyang that we eat, the number of noodles and ingredients is a little more, the soup is slightly less, and the ingredients of the noodles are flat on the cold noodles, rather than like us, the ingredients are stacked on the cold noodles.
Finally, to add a little, although the cold noodles of Yuliuguan do not feel too delicious, but the mung bean pancakes here are really good, the front and back sides of the small cakes are fried brown, but they are not soft and sticky, more importantly, this pancake is also wrapped in a small piece of fat slices half a finger long, I haven't seen this thing for several days, and the girls who lost weight in the group are not humble to let us eat.
