Izakaya near Seomyeon Station, Busan: Set A okonomiyaki at Teppan King
Teppan King is a Japanese teppanyaki izakaya tucked into an alley right in front of Seomyeon Station in Busanjin, Busan. The order was Set A (special okonomiyaki and special yakisoba) with grilled seasoned cod cheeks, smashed cucumber in perilla oil, a Teppan King highball and soju — and the okonomiyaki was so good that a younger sibling nearby was called in for a second pan. With the owner's live teppan performance in front of you, Teppan King is an easy Seomyeon bar to claim as your regular hideout.
