Description

A must-visit spot near Yi Sun-sin Square in Yeosu, Jeollanam-do, famous for its braised hairtail fish. What makes this place stand out is its generous array of side dishes: freshly made gat-kimchi, cucumber kimchi, stir-fried anchovies, seasoned bean sprouts, pickled perilla leaves, watery radish kimchi, and even soy sauce marinated crab! The crab alone could make you finish a bowl of rice, and here you get it as a side dish. The main dish, braised hairtail fish (Galchi-jjim), is one of Yeosu’s top 10 delicacies. Fresh hairtail simmered in a deep, spicy-sweet sauce creates an unforgettable taste for travelers. The broth is rich in umami, the fish is tender and mild without any fishy flavor, and the seasoning permeates deeply, bringing out a homestyle warmth. The radish and potatoes in the stew soak up the sauce beautifully, becoming the perfect rice companions. Between bites, sip the tangy kimchi broth to refresh your palate and enhance the dish’s flavors. There are endless ways to enjoy the meal: a spoonful of rice with the stew’s sauce → wrap rice in perilla leaves → finish with rice mixed into the marinated crab shell. 😋 This restaurant truly proves the saying, “A real restaurant is defined by its side dishes.” If you’re visiting Yeosu, don’t miss the chance to enjoy both braised hairtail fish and soy sauce marinated crab at this spot.
