Default Neng Myan

This is one of my favorites for summer. Ice cold noodle soup. The color and kind of noodles depends on where you order, but the broth is a water, vinegar and crushed ice base. It's usually served with cold noodles, pickled radish, cucumber, sesame seeds, sometimes a small piece of meat, sometimes tomatos and always a hardboiled egg all in a big 'ol bowl. Restaurants will sometimes give you some hot mustard or red pepper sauce or both to put in your neng myan. Really spices it up...yummy. Mul Neng Myan always comes with the crused ice and water broth. Bibim Neng Myan is usually just the cold noodles cucumbers and red pepper sauce (but a few places give you the crushed ice and water broth on the side).
