(9 reviews)Hwajeong Soba is a small farm-to-table soba shop in Uiryeong: the owners grow buckwheat and all the vegetables used for side dishes and toppings on their own 2,000-pyeong (approx. 6,600 m²) farm. Their signature is Naengsoba — cold house-made noodles topped with coarsely shredded pork that’s been simmered for four hours in a soy-based sauce. The noodles are mixed at a 4:6 buckwheat-to-wheat ratio for a nutty aroma with a pleasant chew. Menu variations include warm On-soba, spicy-sweet Bibim Soba, and other buckwheat-based dishes; the kitchen adjusts noodle thickness by dish to deliver distinct textures.
