Karaage and saba ochazuke set at a bar table in Songjeong, Busan: Yuok
Yuok is a Japanese rice-bowl and ochazuke restaurant on Songjeonggangbyeon-ro in Haeundae-gu, Busan. Seated at the bar table, I ordered karaage (Japanese fried chicken) for 6,500 won, the saba ochazuke (mackerel over rice with tea broth) set for 17,000 won and the tori-don (chicken rice bowl) set for 18,000 won, eating each course in the order Yuok recommends. With its pond and soft lighting, Yuok works for both an evening date and a meal with parents, and Dongbu Busan Outlet is about a 10-minute drive away.
