Description
For those seeking something special, this is a must-visit spot near Suyu Station for live hagfish (komjangeo). Here, when you order hagfish, it’s taken straight from the restaurant’s tank, ensuring top freshness. The hagfish is skinned on the spot and grilled right at your table over charcoal. You might be startled to see it still wriggling, so those with weak stomachs should be cautious. But just a little patience and you’ll be rewarded with chewy, smoky hagfish cut into perfect bite-sized pieces. Pair it with a shot of soju and you’ve got the perfect match! The real treat is enjoying it with myeong-i namul (pickled garlic leaves). Their crisp sweetness blends beautifully with the bouncy texture of hagfish for a heavenly combo. Fun fact: despite the name “hagfish” including the word “eel,” it’s not actually an eel. If you enjoy a bit of cartilage crunch, you’ll love this even more. If your soju glass isn’t empty yet, try the soy-sauce seasoned blanched live octopus. Lightly parboiled and flavored with a soy-based sauce, the octopus has a surprisingly springy bite. It pairs wonderfully with the garlic leaves, and the subtle spiciness of the sauce makes it an ideal drinking companion. And don’t miss the finale: the vegetable bibimbap. Mix the leftover sauce from the octopus with fresh vegetables and rice for a mild yet deep flavor that perfectly rounds out the meal. Since the menu changes with the seasons, there’s always something new to enjoy each time you visit.
