Sokcho makguksu restaurant that presses perilla oil on site: Topgol
Sokcho Topgol Makguksu Main Branch is a perilla oil makguksu (buckwheat noodle) restaurant near Sokcho Beach and Sokcho-i in Sokcho, Gangwon. On a rainy one-night trip to Sokcho, the writer ordered deulmemak, pollack salad makguksu and potato pancake for lunch, and the owner personally showed how the perilla seeds are roasted and pressed into oil. Even her husband, who rarely gives praise, agreed it was the real thing.
