Pyeongsang Myeonok Sotbap Bansang Duryu Negeori Branch is a Korean set-meal and hot-pot-rice restaurant at 1763 Dalgubeol-daero in Seo-gu, Daegu. Over lunch with her mom, the writer ordered the small daegu ppol jorim (braised cod head and cheek) and worked through the doenjang kept warm on an induction plate, the neat side dishes, and the stew packed with radish, onion and potato. It was her first cod head stew, and the seasoning at Pyeongsang Myeonok was never too salty, soaking evenly into the fish and vegetables right to the last bite.
