Saturday wait #35 during buckwheat flower festival: Bongpyeong Memil
Bongpyeong Memil Migayeon is a buckwheat noodle restaurant in Bongpyeong, Pyeongchang, Gangwon, that makes its 100% buckwheat noodles in-house. Visiting on a Saturday at noon during the buckwheat flower festival, the writer took waiting number 35 and got seated in about 15 minutes, then tried the plain memil makguksu (buckwheat cold noodles), hanwoo yukhoe bibim makguksu (raw beef tartare mixed noodles), buckwheat pancakes, and an extra serving of noodles. It's a great fit for anyone who wants to taste buckwheat itself rather than a heavily seasoned bowl.
