Located in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province, Yangjimal is a family-run charcoal-grill restaurant operating for over 30 years. Spacious dining on two floors makes it a good choice for groups; the house specialty is charcoal-grilled 'gochujang '—meat marinated in a paste made from 15 ground vegetables, traditional doenjang, and local honey. The grilled with button mushrooms (yangsongi -gui) is another local favorite for its slightly bitter aroma and crisp bite, and they finish meals with an unusual touch: memil (buckwheat) coffee.
