Jeil Banjeom (제일반점)

Located on Chungjang-ro Street in Gwangju, Jeil Banjeom has been a culinary staple since the 1960s. Operated by a Chinese immigrant, it has garnered popularity for its traditional dishes. The signature yennal jjajang is a classic take on black bean sauce noodles, featuring stir-fried black bean paste, a mix of vegetables, potatoes, and specially selected cuts of pork. Another highlight is the tangsuyuk, a dish of deep-fried pork sirloin coated in a sweet and sour sauce. A local favorite, the restaurant is known for being particularly bustling during lunch hours.
