Sashimi season is calling, so let's have some dodari sekkoshi and maeuntang with a drink. This is Veteran General Fish Market Yeonsu Branch.

As the weather turned cooler, I found myself craving sashimi with soju, so I headed over to Veteran General Fish Market Yeonsu Branch. From assorted sashimi to raw shrimp, grilled shrimp, and gizzard shad, there's even more to enjoy now that autumn's here. Let me share my review of the dodari sekkoshi and maeuntang:)

Kimchi pancake you grill yourself at the self-bar, plus wrap greens and ramen noodles

Veteran General Fish Market Yeonsu Branch has a self-bar, so it's easy to grab anything extra you need beyond the basic table setting. You can even make your own kimchi pancake at the self-bar hehe

The table spread arrived~~~ time for a drink right away~~~

The pollack and seaweed soup that comes as part of the spread is amazing for a hangover haha

The mixed sashimi salad piled with flying fish roe is also a great drinking snack haha

Flounder sekkoshi, 35,000 won: how chewy is it?

The dodari sekkoshi at Veteran General Fish Market Yeonsu Branch is ₩35,000, and it's served on a stone plate lined with ice underneath, so you can eat it cool from start to finish. After a little wait, our dodari sekkoshi arrived, generously portioned so you can really enjoy the fresh sashimi.

Taking a glossy bite of the dodari sekkoshi, the chewy, springy texture spreads a nutty flavor through your mouth the more you chew. The freshness of the sashimi comes through, just as the look of it suggested.

Good side dishes make the drinks go down smoother haha

Dodari sekkoshi pairs perfectly with perilla leaves. The portion is generous, so I piled a big handful of sashimi in a perilla leaf wrap, topped it with pollack roe, and the flavor just exploded with savoriness.

Oh no, this is too good. I love assorted sashimi too, but this dodari sekkoshi is a masterpiece. I'll have to come back for more soon hehe

Maeuntang, 8,000 won: a fiery finish to the meal

The maeuntang at Veteran General Fish Market Yeonsu Branch is ₩8,000, and it came out as a generously filled pot haha. My boyfriend had said the maeuntang here is outstanding.

He raved that it was especially spicy and delicious this time haha. Since the dodari sekkoshi is an à la carte item and doesn't include maeuntang, make sure to add it — you have to try it! Mix in some rice and it's the perfect hangover cure.

A bite of sashimi, a spoonful of maeuntang. This is exactly the taste~~~

If a restaurant this good were in my neighborhood, I think I'd eat sashimi every week haha.

Next time I'm coming back for the shrimp and gizzard shad haha
