In Nonsan, there are hundreds of small Korean restaurants serving typical foods such as kimbap and soups. They are scattered through-out the city, so that finding one is perhaps the easiest thing you can do here.
[edit] Restaurants
[edit] Western Food
There are at least two Italian-food restaurants (Da Sarang, Bellevue), a chain Indian restaurant specializing in tandoori chicken (near Da Sarang), two or more Japanese short-order restaurants, a Japanese restaurant down-town at 33 만나ㅡ 1 길 near Korus Mart serving a luncheon special for 10,000 won from noon until 3 p.m.,and at least three Korean-style Chinese short-order restaurants (one just off of Highway 23 south of 5-Points, one in campus-town). A large number of places offer pizza (including a Pizza Hut), though at a much higher price than chicken or Korean foods generally run. There is also a fast-food restaurant near Konyang University serving hamburgers and brats. At the lake, there is a hotel with a restaurant that serves a limited selection of nouvelle cuisine (filet mignon, prawns, steaks), at fairly hefty prices.
