Sicheong Udon is a Japanese-style udon restaurant in Gohyeon-dong, Geoje, that has built a loyal following around its commitment to noodle fundamentals. The house-made noodles are the centerpiece, boasting a springy, chewy texture and a clean taste that goes down smoothly without any floury aftertaste - qualities that even self-described noodle skeptics have found winning. The kitsune udon presents a textbook rendition of the classic: clear, delicate broth with perfectly seasoned tofu pockets. The curry udon is notably well-calibrated, achieving precise seasoning despite its thin, soup-like consistency, a balance that some diners have compared favorably to what they have eaten in Japan. Niku udon is another popular choice, and the inari sushi (yubuchobap) arrives with a sweet-salty seasoning deeply absorbed into the rice, making it an ideal companion to any udon order. The hire katsu (pork cutlet) is crispy without greasiness and has become an almost-automatic side order for regulars, though portions run small enough that sharing is not recommended. The interior features charming Japanese-inspired decor that enhances the dining atmosphere, and the house kimchi has earned its own share of praise. Lunchtime queues are common, but table turnover is fast enough that waits rarely extend beyond thirty minutes. On cold days, the restaurant provides warm barley tea to guests waiting outside.
