This article was machine-translated from the Korean original. Read the Korean original

Located at 272 Eonong-ro, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, BA Vista CC is a large-scale golf course operating up to 63 holes, combining a 36-hole membership course (Bella, Monty, Vista, and Lago) with a public course. It opened in 2003 and was formerly known as Baegam CC. Thanks to its location—approximately an hour from Gangnam and Yangjae in Seoul and close to the Namicheon Interchange—it is a popular destination for golfers in the metropolitan area. With a high concentration of nearby golf courses such as News Springville CC, Wellington CC, Sunning Point CC, South Springs CC, and Midas Lake CC, the area is known as the "Golf School District," and consequently, many restaurants in the vicinity open as early as dawn to cater to golfers.

I have gathered reviews from several bloggers who have visited BA Vista CC and compiled a list of places worth visiting before and after a round.

01A meal at the clubhouse

Befitting its 63-hole scale, the clubhouse restaurant is said to offer a diverse F&B menu. For breakfast, dishes such as sea urchin seaweed soup, soft tofu stew, and sweet and sour rice bowls are frequently mentioned; reviews note that the unique savory flavor of the sea urchin infuses into the broth, making it a light and enjoyable meal before a round. For the snack bar, seafood tteokbokki, grapefruit shaved ice, and seafood pajeon (42,000 won) are often cited; the seafood pajeon is praised for being thick, having a crispy exterior, and containing a generous amount of squid. However, some opinions suggest that the prices at the snack bar are somewhat high, so it is advisable to share among the group.

02A breakfast place that opens at 5 AM

The most frequently mentioned place near the Namicheon Interchange is 'Uju Myeonok Main Branch.' Located at 580-11 Sasil-ro, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 5:30 AM to 8:00 PM (with a break from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM) and is closed every Monday. The signature dish is freshly made cold noodles, a style that falls between Pyongyang and Hamheung styles. Other frequently mentioned items include cabbage soybean paste soup (so famous that the restaurant's previous name was 'Namicheon Cabbage Soybean Paste Soup'), charcoal-grilled pork bulgogi, and beef soup with rice. Situated just five minutes from nearby golf courses such as News Springville CC, Wellington CC, and South Springs CC, it attracts many golfers before and after a round. It is also well-received for operating an in-house café where customers can enjoy brewed coffee, red ginseng balls, or organic soda juice after their meal.

I'm really looking forward to it since they make the noodles fresh on the spot! The cabbage soybean paste soup is also one of the famous signature dishes here.

If you are in need of a spicy hangover cure, there is also 'Unjung Yangpyeong Haejangguk Seolleongtang'. Located at 648 Sasil-ro, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM without any break times or days off. The signature dishes are Yangpyeong Haejangguk and Beef Haejangguk, but the menu is diverse enough to include soft tofu stew, galbitang, galbi jeongol, and steamed dumplings, allowing you to choose according to your preference. While many reviews describe the broth, generously filled with blood sausage and tripe, as clean and not overly spicy, there are also honest opinions stating that the taste is "on the ordinary side." Therefore, it is a good place to visit if you prefer a mild hangover cure rather than an intense broth.

If you are looking for a healthy meal in a forest atmosphere, 'Punggyeong' is another option. Located at 110-71 Eonong-ro, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open from 10:00 to 20:30 (with a break from 15:00 to 16:00) and closed every Monday. You can add deodeok or meat dishes to the signature Gondre namul rice, and pairing it with the stir-fried squid and pork belly makes for a hearty meal. Highlights include the fact that all side dishes are made in-house and the view of the forest through the floor-to-ceiling windows. With group seating and high chairs available, it is also suitable for family visits.

If you want to enjoy both meat and noodle dishes, 'Santa's Dol Jjajang' is a top choice. Located at 1062-67, Deokpyeong-ro, Majang-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, this large restaurant features Dol Jjajang and Rudolph Seasoned Crab as its signature dishes. While they do not offer Jjamppong or Tangsuyuk, customers can enjoy a diverse menu ranging from Korean pancakes and ramen to salmon salad. Reviews indicate that the basic side dishes, such as fresh kimchi and cold seaweed soup, are so delicious that many customers ask for refills. It is also said that because the restaurant has been featured on television multiple times, some customers travel specifically from other regions, such as Seoul, to visit.

The fresh kimchi and cold seaweed soup are amazing. They seem like simple side dishes, but they were so delicious that I refilled them twice.

If you are craving charcoal-grilled dakgalbi, there is also 'Seorak Makguksu Chuncheon Dakgalbi Icheon Branch.' It is located on the first floor at 1171 Jinsangmi-ro, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do. It is open daily from 10:30 to 21:30 (last order at 20:30) and is closed every Tuesday. Situated right near the Namicheon IC, it is considered a convenient stop just before heading onto the highway after finishing a round at BAB Vista CC, as well as News Springville CC, Icheon Midas CC, and Sunning Point CC. The standard set includes a single serving of charcoal-grilled dakgalbi for 15,000 won, accompanied by either water-based or spicy buckwheat noodles. Reviews indicate that it is so crowded on weekend evenings that there is often a wait.

In addition to these, there are several other local restaurants in the Moga-myeon area that are talked about among golfers. 'Icheon Fish Noodle Soup & Loach Soup,' which serves both fish noodles and loach soup, is praised for its refreshing noodles made with fresh broth, making it great for a light meal before a round or as a hangover cure afterward. 'Grandmother's House,' famous for its neat table setting, opens at dawn, making it a good place to grab a hearty set meal before an early morning round. 'Namicheon Makguksu,' which uses 100% pure buckwheat noodles, is considered a top makguksu restaurant in Icheon for the freshness of its dongchimi broth.

If you are looking to spend some leisurely time after a round of golf, 'Icheon L1984 (BC Lighting Restaurant)' stands out. Located on the first floor at 343 Seoicheon-ro, Majang-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open from 10:00 to 18:00 on weekdays and 10:00 to 19:00 on weekends, with free parking available for up to 100 cars. Spanning 8,000 pyeong, reviews indicate a natural flow where visitors can browse lighting and furniture in Building A, dine in Building B, and then tour Building C. Since lighting and furniture are available for purchase, it is said to be helpful for newlyweds or guests preparing to move.

If you are looking for American-style brunch and dessert, there is also 'Cafe The Green Garden' in Moga-myeon. It is said to offer a variety of American-style cakes and cookies, and uses high-quality beans for its rich and nutty coffee flavor. If you wish to enjoy a light hot dog after a round of golf, there is also 'Simmons Grocery Store Icheon Terrace' (374 Singal-ri, Moga-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, 11:00–20:00), which is highly rated for those who prefer to sit and rest for a while with a light snack rather than grilling meat.
