Kuksi (Koryo-mar: 국시, Russian: кукси) is a noodle dish in Koryo-saram cuisine: cuisine of the ethnic Koreans of the mainland former Soviet Union. It is served cold and often spicy with beef.[1][2][3] It is the Koryo-saram version of janchi-guksu.
The dish is a popular menu item at Cafe Lily, an Uzbek-Korean restaurant, located in Brooklyn, New York City.[1] The Moscow Times describes the kuksi served at Koryo-saram in Moscow's K-town as "[having] quite the kick".[4]
