Mulchi Banjeom 물치반점
Yangyang · Naksan & Mulchi · Meal
Banjeom is the Korean word for a neighbourhood Chinese restaurant, and this one beside Mulchi Port is the kind locals rely on. Ujjamppong, a spicy seafood noodle soup with chewy udon-style noodles, is the dish to order, though the black-bean jjajangmyeon is milder if you do not like heat. Portions are generous and prices are low, so it makes a good budget lunch between sights.
The dining room is simple and quick, and kids usually enjoy the noodles. It concentrates on lunch and tends to close around three in the afternoon, so do not arrive late. Check current hours before driving over.
It is on the lane next to the harbour entrance, with a small lot out front. From Sokcho or Naksan, local buses stop on the main road nearby. (Show a driver: 물치반점)
