Paju bakery sun-dried tomato sandwich and salt bread: Boulangerie Tan

Boulangerie Tan Unjeong Main Branch is a naturally fermented bakery on the first floor of Palm Star Tower on Chorongkkot-ro in Paju's Unjeong area, Gyeonggi. On a 2–3pm visit the takeout order was four items — a sun-dried tomato sandwich, jambon-beurre, chocolate baguette and pollack roe potato salt bread — and the sun-dried tomato sandwich and pollack roe potato salt bread were the standouts. The jambon-beurre baguette turned slightly soggy after packing, so Boulangerie Tan is better visited in the morning.

Goyang seaweed soup restaurant with a self-serve bar: Haenon Miyeok

Haenon Miyeok Ilsan Direct Branch is a Busan-style seaweed soup (miyeok-guk) restaurant in the Anigol food street of Pungdong, Goyang, Gyeonggi. The abalone beef seaweed soup set for two came with seasoned grilled flounder and a salad, two pieces of abalone each, and a self-serve bar holding japchae, fried eggplant and braised tofu. The broth at Haenon Miyeok is beef-bone based yet clean and clear, making it a solid choice for a meal with parents or a birthday table.
