(39 reviews)Tucked down a quiet country lane in Goseong, this humble roadside restaurant is frequently full of diners who come by word of mouth. Their signature is memil-guksu — buckwheat noodles eaten with ice-cold dongchimi broth; the house dongchimi is not sharply acidic but has a gentle tang and savory depth that keeps you sipping the soup. Part of the experience is customizing the noodles with perilla oil, vinegar, seasoning sauce, mustard, or a touch of sugar. Another popular dish is — thin, tender slices of boiled meat served generously; it pairs especially well with baek-kimchi and spicy seasoned pollock (myeongtae hoe-muchim).
