Locals in Damyang often gather at Ttukbang Guksu, a simple noodle specialist located along the riverbank. This establishment sits slightly away from the main tourist area and focuses on straightforward, efficient service. The Yeolmu-bibim-guksu features a spicy, sweet, and tangy sauce tossed with seaweed flakes and bean sprouts for texture. For a warm meal, the anchovy broth noodles use a medium-thickness noodle with a springy bite, served in a clean soup with thinly sliced raw onions. A self-serve station provides hot anchovy broth to help balance the palate if the spicy noodles feel intense. The large rolled omelette, prepared immediately after ordering, arrives steaming hot and serves as a popular accompaniment. Prices are set in the 6,000 to 7,000 won range, and the service is fast enough to maintain a high turnover rate. Portions are generous, so the regular size typically suffices for most diners. The ordering process involves finding a seat first, identifying the table number, and then paying at the counter. Utensils and bowls are available on a self-serve basis. Located at 20 Cheonbyeon 5-gil, Damyang-gun, the restaurant provides ample parking space. It is a frequent stop for cyclists on the nearby path and visitors attending the Damyang five-day market, which operates on days ending in 2 and 7.
