4th-floor pocha bar near Dongchon Resort, Daegu: Eomuk Pocha Tong

Eomuk Pocha Tong is an indoor-and-outdoor pocha (Korean street-style bar) on the 4th floor of a building near Dongchon Resort in Dong-gu, Daegu. Inside, with 80s and 90s Korean pop playing, the assorted fish cake stew came in a portion big enough for four and could be eaten with either clear or spicy broth, served with free sides of kimchi pancake, snacks and salad. Eomuk Pocha Tong is an easy stop before or after a walk around Dongchon Resort, for a first round or a second.

Pohang hanwoo sirloin steak with windows open to Songdo Beach: Plan A

Plan A Restaurant is an ocean-view Western restaurant on the 4th floor of a building right in front of Songdo Beach in Pohang. On a trip to Pohang, the writer came for the sea view and ordered the 300g hanwoo (Korean beef) sirloin steak medium-rare at 49,000 won with a 13,000 won shrimp salad that arrived far larger than expected. With the window open onto the Songdo shoreline, Plan A Restaurant suits both a date and a family meal.
