Comedian Go Myeong-hwan operates Memilkkochi Pieotseumnida Ilsan Bonjeom, a buckwheat noodle house that gained recognition through television appearances. The noodles feature a medium thickness and a distinctly chewy, elastic texture, distinguishing them from the softer varieties commonly found elsewhere. The bibim memil uses a sauce that coats the thick noodles effectively and comes topped with hand-shredded beef brisket. In colder months, the deulkkae on-myeon offers a nutty perilla-based broth, while the mul-memil provides a refreshing cold option for summer. The menu incorporates buckwheat into savory pancakes and dumplings, with additional choices like tteokgalbi and cheese pork cutlet available for younger diners. Located along Gobong-ro in Ilsandong-gu, Goyang, the establishment uses a prepayment system where guests pay at the entrance before being assigned a table number. While the entrance can become congested, the property provides ample parking space for visitors traveling by car. Complimentary buckwheat tea is served inside, though it is kept at a very high temperature. The restaurant draws many older patrons and experiences weekend wait times, though arriving during off-peak hours often allows for immediate seating.
