Willa Moore reviews Daesung Korean Noodle in Murray Hill, Queens, a spot famous for its nearly 40 varieties of soup, particularly its signature kalguksu and bulgogi soondubu kalguksu. The restaurant also impresses with its seafood and bacon pajun and fresh banchan.
This Queens establishment offers a remarkable selection of nearly 40 soups, with a particular focus on hearty noodle dishes like kalguksu and bulgogi soondubu kalguksu, which feature silky tofu and homemade noodles.
