I love the description on the menu: “Snowy white ox-bone soup with white rice and white noodles. Carefully chosen bone and meat are cooked together more than 12 hours in a giant cast-iron pot to remove the fat and oil. Add scallion, salt.” That’s pretty much it. Gammiok specializes in sulung tang, which is a meal in itself for one person, at only $6.95 ($7.95 for take-out). Best of all, the restaurant is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Ah, reminds me of my college days, when Gammiok was the place to go after a night of drinking, as the sulung tang really hit the spot at 4am. But really, any time of day, this comfort food is a good bet to satiate a soupy noodle craving.
