Our twin family often takes weekend outings around Pocheon, but there are surprisingly few restaurants around here where you can comfortably bring a baby, so we always deliberate. 😭 Most places are barbecue restaurants, but our twins are only 28 months old—too curious to sit still for long, and when there’s a grill, there’s just too much to keep an eye on. ![A Pocheon outing looking for a lunch restaurant with a baby](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-01-oj95t-900.webp) But this time, we found a restaurant serving makguksu (buckwheat noodles), buckwheat dumplings, and tteokgalbi (Korean grilled meat patties)—just right for feeding the kids—so we went with my older sister and her husband! It’s Myeongimong (명이몽) in Pocheon. ![Visiting Myeongimong in Pocheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-02-hcad0-1200.webp) We stopped by after visiting Pof Insect Theme Park in Pocheon, and to give you the conclusion first: we were completely satisfied! This is a place I’m 200% willing to revisit. ## What we ordered at Myeongimong and my honest taste review What we ordered: two bowls of bibim makguksu (₩10,000 each), mul makguksu (₩10,000), charcoal-grilled pork tteokgalbi (₩13,000), and buckwheat dumplings (₩7,000) / ₩49,000 total. (An honest review because my brother-in-law treated us! haha) ### Charcoal-grilled pork tteokgalbi You can choose the amount of rice, so we ordered a generous portion. My niece ate her fill, and my brother-in-law neatly finished what was left. ![Charcoal-grilled pork tteokgalbi with a generous serving of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-03-14dve-900.webp) ### Buckwheat dumplings We each shared one, and they were really generously filled. ![Generously filled buckwheat dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-04-e3amq-900.webp) ### Bibim makguksu My sister says it tastes like the mildly sweet, not-too-intense noodles her grandmother used to make—a nostalgic flavor. It’s perfect for anyone who dislikes food that is simply salty, spicy, and sweet. ![Mildly sweet, not-too-intense bibim makguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-05-wzu0p-900.webp) ### Mul makguksu We asked for the seasoning sauce on the side so we could share it with the children! ![Mul makguksu with the seasoning sauce requested separately](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-06-1q3hi-900.webp) ![Mul makguksu to share with the children](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-07-1rxhy-900.webp) ## Tips for sharing mul makguksu with 28-month-old twins I first lifted out the mul makguksu noodles, diluted them slightly with water, and put them in the twins’ cups. They found it much easier to hold and eat from paper cups than from wide bowls! While all the adults were still eating, our younger twin slurped up even the broth—such an incredible noodle lover—and expertly finished every last drop. 🤣 ![Twins eating mul makguksu from paper cups](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-08-197f2-900.webp) ![A child eating mul makguksu down to the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-09-1hkdw-900.webp) After serving the children, I added the seasoning sauce and tasted just one sip of the broth. It was so delicious that I immediately thought, “Ah! We’re definitely coming back here.” ![Mul makguksu broth with the seasoning sauce added](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-10-10ijj-900.webp) ![Mul makguksu that made us want to return](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-11-1jyqa-900.webp) The buckwheat pancake served as a basic side dish was especially ideal for our twins, who are eating a low-sodium diet, so I broke some off for them right away. Maybe because it was their first buckwheat pancake, but sadly, they wouldn’t eat it. How could they not understand a mother’s desire to feed them something this good... 😭 In the end, the adults happily ate it all. A buckwheat pancake as a complimentary side dish is truly the best! ## Child-friendly amenities and restaurant information High chairs / spacious dining room and wide table spacing / spacious parking ![High chairs and a spacious dining room](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-12-xgr4y-900.webp) ![Restaurant interior with widely spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-13-1bkmi-900.webp) ![A restaurant space convenient for strollers](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-14-1k2de-900.webp) ![Restaurant with spacious parking](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-15-l1u8t-900.webp) The restaurant is quite new, so it was very clean.

Honestly, I would not come all the way to Pocheon for this place alone; instead, pair it with Art Valley or a nearby attraction for lunch, and you won’t find a better option. ![Stopping at Myeongimong for lunch on a Pocheon outing](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles-22-s1bxx-900.webp) ## Where it is - Myeongimong (명이몽) - 235 Sinpyeong-ro, Sinbuk-myeon, Pocheon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 포천시 신북면 신평로 235 명이몽 - 37.9398677, 127.2182295 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%AA%85%EC%9D%B4%EB%AA%BD/@37.9398677,127.2182295,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@second-bowl-gyeonggi/pocheon-myeongimong-kids-noodles/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
