Memilkkochi Pieotseumnida Ilsan Bonjeom is a buckwheat noodle restaurant in Gobong-ro, Ilsandong-gu, Goyang, Gyeonggi-do, operated by former comedian Go Myeong-hwan and brought to wider attention through television appearances on programs including Jangsa-ui Sin and Human Story. The restaurant's buckwheat noodles diverge from the typically soft texture associated with the genre, featuring a medium thickness and distinctly chewy, elastic bite. Visitors expecting soft, delicate buckwheat noodles may find the texture unexpectedly firm, so the experience best suits those who prefer noodles with substantial resistance. The bibim memil demonstrates effective sauce adhesion despite the thicker noodle gauge, and a distinctive topping of hand-shredded beef brisket adds a layer of care not commonly found elsewhere. The deulkkae (perilla seed) hot noodle soup combines a rich, nutty broth reminiscent of perilla-based kalguksu with buckwheat noodles, creating a warm combination particularly suited to winter months. The cold mul-memil features a well-flavored broth ideal for a refreshing summer bowl. Buckwheat extends beyond noodles into jeon (savory pancakes) and mandu (dumplings), giving buckwheat enthusiasts reason to explore the full menu. Side items including tteokgalbi and cheese tonkatsu broaden the options for families with children. The ordering system requires prepayment at the entrance, after which diners receive a table number, take a seat, and wait for food delivery. First-time visitors arriving without their full party may find the process awkward, and the entrance area tends to stay crowded as a result. Buckwheat tea is available from a large thermos inside the dining room, though it is served extremely hot and care should be taken. No coffee vending machine is available. Older visitors make up a significant portion of the clientele. Weekends generate queues, but arriving outside standard meal hours, such as 5:00 p.m. on a Sunday, typically allows immediate entry. Parking is ample, making the restaurant convenient for car access, though public transportation options to the location are limited. Service quality varies by staff member, and some visitors note a gap between the hospitality philosophy presented on television and the actual in-store experience.
