장백산, which translates as Changbai Mountain, is a lamb barbecue restaurant located in Beomeo. The owner, who told me that his name was Joey, serves lamb imported from Australia and New Zealand, and it’s really good.
There are so many bakeries here that it can be hard to know which ones to try though I would say that Gio’s is one of the good ones in Yangsan. They have a great selection of cakes and pastries and plenty of free samples, so you can try before you buy. Pain au chocolat, great chocolate cake and the carrot cake are just some of the reasons I make the trip to Gio’s in Beomeo.
This little cafe in Beomeo has a good selection of toasted sandwiches or “press sandwich.” I prefer the sandwiches here to somewhere like ‘Isaac Toast’ as you there’s no hidden extras like pickles or sauce, for example. Ham and cheese is ham and cheese with no suprises.
Fantastic Panini. Would be one reason to visit this excellent coffee shop in Jungbu-Dong though the coffee is pretty good too. Da.Gan is run by sisters (not nuns), one of whom studied culinary arts in Canada (she’s the one who makes the food).
WA Bars are a common sight in Korean towns and cities. They sell a selection of world beers, spirits and (maybe overpriced) food. Plus you can play darts on the electronic darts machines.
There are 2 WA Bars in Yangsan, one in Shindoshi and the other in Beomo.
There are so many chicken places in Korea that it can be hard to know which one to choose. However, Chicken Syndrome, located close to Nambu Market is well worth a visit.
Uzbek cuisine is one of my favorite food discoveries since coming to Korea. I used to travel to Gimhae, a city about 30 minutes from here, to dine at Registon, a really good Uzbek restaurant.
This trendy chain pub, known as Dog bar, is located in Shindoshi, close to Yangsan subway station and the CGV cinema. I usually go to Dog bar for the cheap pitchers of gin and tonic or vodka and cranberry, which are very reasonably priced They also serve cocktail pitchers and reasonably placed beer. Bar snacks can also be ordered and they have a dart board (an electronic darts machine).
