what comes to mind at that

A noun plus 하면 떠오르다 names the first thing that springs to mind at the mention of something: 한국 하면 떠오르는 커피 "the coffee that comes to mind when you think of Korea", 제주도 하면 떠오르는 이미지 "the image Jeju brings up". Seven of these lines have exactly that shape, and it is the standard frame for "the classic X" or "the definitive X". The 하면 here is not really "if you do" — it is closer to "at the mention of".
