The mountains and fields are colored all over the country with colorful colors. At the peak of autumn, which is the most colorful of the four seasons, famous mountains all over the country are full of holidaymakers on weekdays and weekends. Autumn leaves that turn yellow and red in Korea are representative, but you can also feel the atmosphere of autumn with reeds seen in wetlands and pampas grass seen in the mountains. At the reed colony next to Ecological Park in Suncheon, Jeollanam-do, a reed festival is held every year at this time of year, and the golden waves created by reeds filled with 150,000 square meters of ground are spectacular. Here are 5 restaurants recommended by social media users in Suncheon, a great season for traveling, where you can enjoy the deep flavors of South Island along with the romance of autumn.
1. Daewon Restaurant, a hearty meal exclusive to Jeolla-do
Daewon Restaurant is a renovated hanok and has an old-fashioned feel from the exterior. It is famous for offering more than 20 types of Namdo-style limited meals. When you walk through the main gate, walk through the yard, and sit inside a room, you come in with a whole dish full of food instead of a course where side dishes are served one by one. There are also unique delicacies such as octopus sashimi, seokhwa sauce, grilled yangtai (pollack), and daikon sauce, where the process of drying and pounding in the wind is cumbersome, and seasoned pork yakiniku, which is well-made with a good taste, you can fully enjoy Namdo-style limited cuisine. It's good to pamper your mouth with a cool bean sprout soup in the middle. They start with a three-person meal, and dinner includes grilled yakiniku and chapchae, so there's a difference in price from lunch, so it's a good idea to check when you visit.

â²Business hours: 11:30 ~ 21:00 â²Location: 35-11 Jangcheon-dong, Suncheon-si, Jeollanam-do

2. An à la carte restaurant with fresh komak and crab at the same time
You must make a reservation for an à la carte restaurant that is closest to the entrance of the Suncheon Bay Natural Ecological Park parking lot and is always crowded. The most representative dish is the crab komak set meal, which comes with dozens of side dishes, including stewed mackerel and beef. The spicy and sour sauce is properly infused with seasoning, so it's good to put seaweed and rice together and grate it. If you eat soy sauce crab and seasoned crab, which have an excellent salty flavor, together, you must add about one bowl of rice, so the modifier ârice thiefâ is not worth it. You can enjoy a variety of flavors of komak because it contains komak when simmered in quail eggs and even before serving it hot. Fresh kimchi, the representative side dish of Suncheon, is also excellent. The legs of the table are attached to the legs of the table, so you can enjoy forgetting them one by one.
3. Stir-fried pork on a stone plate, 8 kinds of fresh rolls, brisket sambap
Yangji sambap, along with Tokyo octopus, is a representative restaurant in the old town of Suncheon. If you make sambap, 12 side dishes, including soy sauce crab and komak, and miso soup are delicious just by looking at them. Mackerel sambap and stir-fried pork sambap are famous; they are served in a hot-heated round cast iron pan with a sizzling sound, making you swallow your saliva while lifting the cutlery. If you put meat on a fresh wrap containing poached cabbage, you feel that your health is multiplied. Once you've eaten all the meat, it's a delicacy even if you put the rice in the sauce left over and grate it.
â²Shikigami Food's review : Mackerel and rolls go very well together. â²Opening hours: 10:30 to 21:00 (closed on Sundays)
â²Location: 103-4 Haengdong, Suncheon-si, Jeollanam-do â²Price range: Mackerel sambap 7,000 won, stir-fried pork sambap 7,000 won
4. Original Tokyo Octopus, a restaurant recommended by locals
Donggyeong Octopus, located near the Jungang Intersection of Suncheon Central Market, only sells a single octopus hot pot menu, so there's no need to worry about the menu. Every morning, fresh, large octopus comes directly from the mountains, and is filled with vermicelli and chives, and when cooked on the table, a sharp and refreshing octopus hot pot is ready. Dongchimi served in a round jar that can be eaten with a ladle goes well with octopus hot pot, which has a cool broth, neutralizes the spicy flavor. Stir so that the sauce is evenly distributed, and when the octopus is cooked, you can enjoy a refreshing soup with puffy octopus meat, and when you've almost finished eating the soup, you can enjoy a satisfying meal by sprinkling seaweed powder and sesame oil on the octopus. At the end of the meal, they prepare sweet sake, so it's a great place to soothe your mouth.
5. Hwawoldang confectionary store, a specialty of Suncheon that is quietly located
Hwawoldang Confectionery, which has been located in Suncheon Nambu Market for 90 years, is a famous bakery where you can enjoy chewy daifuku and soft volcastella. It's so popular that you can't buy it if you don't reserve an order in advance. If you buy it in a box, it consists of 8 daifuku and 8 volcastellas, each packed individually, so it's easy to eat. The red bean paste, which is filled with daifuku and volcastella, is not sweet and has an excellent umami flavor in the mouth. Note that if you freeze daifuku and leave it aside for about 10 minutes to eat, the original stickiness will quickly return and you can enjoy a more chewy flavor. It has a high level of flavor and is recommended as a gift or souvenir when traveling to Suncheon.
