Unable to forget the Pemanong Jambon pizza tasted at the Sangmu branch, the writer visited the Suwan branch with her child and ordered two whole pizzas — the Pemanong Jambon pizza and the arugula pizza. Thin, chewy dough with green onion spread and jambon, plus arugula with prosciutto, made a combination good enough to eat every day without tiring of it. ## Good to know - **Hours**: 11:30–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Last order**: 20:20 - **Parking**: Roadside parking on the street in front of the restaurant (narrow street, may be hard for new drivers) - **Ordered**: Pemanong Jambon pizza, arugula pizza, Coke - **Seating**: Outdoor tables available; many tables, suitable for gatherings; baby chairs provided *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* ![Signature photo of Bueokgan Suwan Branch's Pemanong Jambon pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-01-4wtur-1200.webp) The Pemanong Jambon pizza I first tried at Bueokgan's Sangmu branch, a Western restaurant in Gwangju! I couldn't forget that taste, so I went back for more — this time I had errands to run in the Suwan district, so I stopped by Bueokgan Suwan Branch. ![Exterior of Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-02-e4m7j-966.webp) ## Bueokgan Suwan Branch hours, break time and parking Bueokgan Suwan Branch is open 11:30–21:00, with break time from 15:00–17:00, and last order at 20:20. ![Roadside parking street in front of Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-03-14c76-966.webp) For parking, this Western restaurant in Gwangju sits on a street where roadside parking is allowed, so I was able to park. But the street is pretty narrow, so it might be tough for new drivers! ![Entrance of Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-04-12rff-966.webp) ![Entrance of Bueokgan Suwan Branch with a weekend wait](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-05-1w3bc-966.webp) I visited on a weekend, and even though it was past mealtime, the place was full — I only had to wait a little before getting a table. That's the class of a Gwangju Western food spot!! ![Outdoor table seating at Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-06-92zju-966.webp) ## What the Bueokgan Suwan dining room is like with a child There are outdoor tables too, so eating outside on a nice day would be really lovely. Inside, it's bright and modern — a great vibe for brunch or a date! ![Bright, modern interior of Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-07-141qr-966.webp) ![Spacious dining hall with plenty of tables at Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-08-imxhx-966.webp) There were plenty of tables too, so it looked great for group gatherings! The restrooms were separated by gender and clean. They also have baby chairs, so Bueokgan Suwan Branch is a great Gwangju Western food spot for family dining too~! ## Ordering two pizzas at Bueokgan Suwan with a kid ![Table setting at Bueokgan Suwan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-09-4ed7l-966.webp) What we ordered was the Pemanong Jambon pizza and the arugula pizza! ![Waiting at the table for the two ordered pizzas](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-10-5nvc6-966.webp) I went with my kid, and she didn't want anything else — just wanted to eat lots of pizza, so it ended up pizza-only .... T_T Bueokgan's pasta, risotto, and pilaf are all delicious too, you know ....ㅠㅠ ![Coke served alongside the pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-11-11oo8-966.webp) It was so hot that we started with a glass of Coke — Coke really does go with pizza. ![The arugula pizza that arrived first](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-12-7oie7-966.webp) ## Arugula pizza: prosciutto and arugula on thin dough The arugula pizza came out first — apparently it's a light, clean pizza topped with arugula and prosciutto. ![Cheese on the freshly served arugula pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-13-q1ti5-966.webp) That cheese visual, my god ,,,,ㅠㅠ A piping-hot pizza fresh out of the oven really doesn't envy any feast. ![Pizza piled generously with arugula](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-14-mstvk-966.webp) The arugula was piled on generously too — the freshness and fragrance of the arugula was just so good. ![Thin, chewy crust of the arugula pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-15-1a27j-966.webp) The crust was thin, chewy, and light — even the bread alone was delicious! ![A slice of the arugula pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-16-scyu8-966.webp) ![A slice of arugula pizza topped with prosciutto](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-17-m0jm5-966.webp) The prosciutto was salty yet full of flavor, and it matched perfectly with the fragrant arugula — genuinely a Gwangju Western food spot worthy of the name, ㅠㅠ ![The Pemanong Jambon pizza that came out next](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-18-13rk0-966.webp) ## Pemanong Jambon pizza and its addictive green onion spread The Pemanong Jambon pizza came out right after, and the visual was seriously something!! I came back because I couldn't forget this taste, so seeing it again made me so happy haha. A familiar taste is a scary thing..!! ![Full view of the Pemanong Jambon pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-19-t6vow-966.webp) Apparently 'Pemanong' is the Jeju dialect word for green onion. It sounds kind of like a foreign word, so it's funny that it's actually Jeju dialect ㅋㅋ ![Pemanong Jambon pizza topped with green onion spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-20-opym2-966.webp) ![Close-up of the generous green onion spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-21-vmuv1-966.webp) This green onion spread is seriously so delicious — rich and savory yet nutty, a super addictive taste!! And they put on a generous amount too, love it. The crust, again, thin and fluffy~~ ![A slice of the Pemanong Jambon pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-22-1h9hj-966.webp) ![A pizza slice topped with jambon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-23-190t6-966.webp) The jambon was salty yet clean, with an incredible umami that paired so well with the green onion spread. Seriously, everything here is good ,,,ㅠㅠ ![Both pizzas placed together on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan/gwangju-suwan-pizza-two-pies-bueokgan-24-4bhvk-m-966.webp) ## Why the writer would return to Bueokgan Suwan Today I tried the Pemanong Jambon pizza and arugula pizza at Bueokgan Suwan Branch, also known as a top pasta and brunch spot in the Suwan district — and I felt it again this time: this is a taste you could eat every single day without getting tired of it... Next time I'm coming back for the brunch and pasta!!
