Local Food Recommendations

Pumpkin Duck

Duck and pumpkin are cooked together, blending the pumpkin's sweetness with the meat juices. This Pocheon dish is suitable for sharing.

Seafood Noodles and Seafood Pancakes

Seafood and shellfish add an umami flavor to the hot broth, while hand-cut noodles soak up the soup. Served with a crispy seafood pancake, they make a warming meal to share in the outskirts of Pocheon.
