Seongseo, Daegu Korean restaurant with takeout gondre rice: Hyangtaek

Hyangtaek Seongseo Keimyung University Branch is a tidy rice-bowl Korean restaurant in Dalseo, Daegu, near Keimyung University. On a weekday lunch with her mother, who had been in poor health, the writer ordered mackerel gondre rice (14,000 won), eggplant doenjang rice bowl (13,000 won) and the opening-event galbi platter, then had another mackerel gondre rice packed to take home. The mackerel gondre rice, still fragrant with gondre (Korean wild aster), was the dish most worth ordering at Hyangtaek.

Daegu stone-grilled rib restaurant with unlimited ssam: Banwoldang

Banwoldang Bujasikdang is a Korean restaurant serving stone-grilled ribs and ssambap (rice with wrap vegetables) in an alley off Gwandeokjeong-gil in Jung-gu, Daegu. On a weekend evening a group of friends ordered 3 servings of the buja stone-grilled ribs and wrapped bite after bite with self-serve lettuce and bean sprout side dishes, alongside a doenjang stew that tastes like homemade soybean paste and freshly cooked rice. Packed with older regulars and big groups, Banwoldang Bujasikdang delivered on both portion size and homestyle cooking.
