Pick-3 sushi takeout near Moraenae Market, Incheon: Minyeong Hwareo

Today I went to Moraenae Market and got a craving for sushi, so I picked up some takeout from Minyeong Hwareo Gongjang Moraenae Market Branch. It's famous enough that everyone probably already knows it!! I'd say it has Incheon pretty much locked down haha, it's just that good.

Three sushi kinds picked at Minyeong Hwareo Gongjang Moraenae Market Branch

I packed it to eat comfortably at home, and the packaging was way more careful than I expected — that made me happy. What I picked were shrimp sushi, salmon sushi, and aged kimchi flatfish sushi. There's just something fun about picking a variety of sushi types to eat.

How do the shrimp, salmon and aged-kimchi flatfish sushi taste?

The shrimp sushi had plump, springy shrimp that paired well with the rice, easy to eat without feeling heavy, and the salmon sushi was soft and savory — as always, one of my favorites. And this time I also picked the aged kimchi flatfish sushi. Flatfish sushi alone has a plain, clean flavor, but topped with aged kimchi (mukeunji) it gets a tangy, crunchy kick that made it deliciously different.

Personally, of the three, the aged kimchi flatfish sushi stuck with me the most. What I loved most was the packaging — the sushi was arranged neatly so nothing got jumbled, and they even threw in an ice pack so I could bring it home fresh. (Such a nice touch! The shopping bag was so pretty and clean too — you know it's famous for looking like a certain something, right?)

Ice pack and cold bag: how the sushi is packed for takeout

On top of that, they thoughtfully included a cold bag, so I worried less on the way home. Sushi freshness is always a concern when it's hot out or the trip takes a while, but with the ice pack and cold bag together, I felt confident taking it home.
