Introduction and Arrival

Today, the three of us went out to eat seafood stew,

but we were drawn in by the smell of meat and happened to visit this place, filling ourselves up heartily. Here's a write-up of our visit to this popular restaurant in Sangdo-dong.

Parking is subtly important when choosing a restaurant, and the availability here was a big plus for our visit!

🍚 An entrance that makes you anticipate the rice

On the way up to the restaurant, there was a traditional style interior and remarkably stacked rice sacks. The rice looked so good that I promised myself I would definitely order rice later on as we entered.

Appetizers and Charcoal

🥗 Neat side dishes and unique charcoal

We settled in and ordered two servings of fresh meat and two servings of marinated galbi. Soon, the delightful side dishes filled the table.

But naturally, my hands went straight to the main attraction — the meat~~

Among all the side dishes, the one that caught my taste buds was the yuzu lotus root salad! The subtle yuzu scent and the crispy texture were truly outstanding, earning my thumbs up! It was so delicious we finished two plates easily!!

Also, the charcoal brought for grilling the meat was quite special. Though there was no explanation, its unusual shape caught our attention as seen in the photo. The gentle heat rising above the grill seemed perfect for cooking the meat deliciously.

The first grilled fresh meat had a nutty and clean flavor that filled my mouth. It was tender and fresh, so even just a little salt made it excellent.

When we finished the fresh meat, we placed the marinated galbi on the grill. The marinade wasn't overly sweet but just pleasantly sweet, making it a real rice thief.

Stone Pot Rice and Finish

🍯 Honey-like stone pot rice and scorched rice finish

While eating the meat, I remembered the high-quality rice spotted at the entrance and ordered two servings of stone pot rice.

As expected, the rice was absolutely delicious! The sticky and shiny rice topped with meat was twice as tasty. We enjoyed the piping hot scorched rice at the bottom, perfectly finishing the meal.
