## Why we went to Guwol-dong for salt-grilled king shrimp

Veteran General Fish Market Incheon Guwol Branch is one of the seafood restaurants I go to often in Guwol-dong. As the weather's been cooling down lately, I kept thinking about fall seafood in season. I especially wanted plump, springy grilled shrimp, so I did a deep search for Guwol-dong restaurants. That's how I happily ended up back at Veteran General Fish Market Incheon Guwol Branch — great value and great reviews! The sashimi here is good, the rockfish spicy stew is good, and the live squid sashimi is good too, so it's one of the seafood spots I keep coming back to in Guwol-dong.

I asked my friend to take a photo of the exterior and she struck this pose lol lol lol so this is how the exterior photo turned out lol. It's so funny it's not even in focus lol. Anyway, the second I stepped inside, the clean, spacious interior made me think right away this would be perfect for a group gathering or a work dinner!

## Salt-grilled king shrimp, 30,000 won, grilled live at the table

Once we sat down, we ordered the signature salt-grilled king shrimp (₩30,000) without a second thought.

The shrimp were flapping around nonstop — you could really tell they were still alive. I've been to places that mix in dead shrimp, but here they were all alive 😍👍 Watching them turn red on the bed of coarse salt in the pot made my mouth water instantly!

Since it's the king shrimp version, the shrimp were noticeably bigger than at other seafood restaurants! I peeled one well-cooked shrimp and could feel the springy firmness in my fingertips from the moment I cracked the shell.

The more I chewed, the more the shrimp's subtle sweetness and the salt's savoriness filled my mouth, blending perfectly into a nutty, fresh flavor.

### Soju with a lemon slice, the drink to order with shrimp

As a special trick, we dropped a lemon slice into our soju glasses. The bright lemon scent softened the soju's bitterness and brought out the shrimp's flavor even more, so the drinks went down really smoothly!

## Butter-grilled shrimp heads made from the heads we saved

When we were about done with the shrimp bodies, we asked them to butter-grill the heads we'd set aside. The golden, butter-grilled heads hit us first with a rich, nutty butter smell. One bite in, the crispy texture and the deep, heavy savoriness of the innards exploded — the ultimate drinking snack.

## For a bigger group: add the raw shrimp sashimi, 35,000 won

The raw shrimp sashimi at Veteran General Fish Market Incheon Guwol Branch is also delicious, so if you're going in a group, be sure to order it alongside everything else. On a different visit I had the raw shrimp sashimi too — it was fresh, chunky, and had a great chewy texture!👍 You can get the raw shrimp sashimi bundled with the head butter-grill for ₩35,000.

From plump, sweet grilled shrimp to nutty butter-grilled heads to that bright lemon soju combo — it was a perfect day. If you want proper salt-grilled king shrimp in Guwol-dong, or a spacious, comfortable spot for a gathering, be sure to visit Veteran General Fish Market Incheon Guwol Branch!
