Soupy tteokbokki and boiled octopus at Muje, a Guri market alley bar
Muje is a second-floor bar-restaurant in a market alley in Guri, Gyeonggi, at 27-6 Angol-ro 103beon-gil. At Muje the order was gukmul tteokbokki (soupy rice cakes in spicy broth) with ramen noodles added, plus munueo sukhoe (boiled octopus) dipped alternately in chojang (sweet chili-vinegar sauce) and garlic-oil sauce, a spicy-and-chewy pairing that suited drinks well. Tucked deep in the alley, Muje is still roomy and stylish inside, making it an easy pick for a group of friends or a date in Guri.
