I ordered Susan Jang's signature seasonal seafood platter, the standout marinated blue crab buckwheat noodles, and fried seafood, and properly conquered them with a drink in hand. The platter looked like a whole ocean brought to the table.

How were the marinated live blue crab buckwheat noodles?
Susan Jang's marinated blue crab buckwheat noodles is a dish where you mix buckwheat noodles into a spicy-sweet marinade in the style of yangnyeom gejang (soy-marinated crab). Great as both a meal and a snack.
Taste: wow, this dish is a true delicacy! It's like mixing the nutty buckwheat noodles into that intense, spicy-sweet yangnyeom gejang-style sauce — the sweetness of the crab meat and the umami-loaded sauce soak right into the noodles and cling to your mouth perfectly. 🦀
Fried seafood: crisp outside, tender inside
Taste: since the overall snack quality here is so high, even the fried seafood isn't an afterthought! Crispy texture is a given, and frying in clean oil gives it an extra nutty flavor — perfect alongside the seafood dishes. 🍤😋
