Octopus set with raw beef tartare and egg custard: Min Nakji, Ansan
Min Nakji Ansan Seongpo Main Branch is an octopus specialty restaurant in Seongpo-dong, Ansan, serving octopus rice bowls, octopus bokkeum (stir-fry), hot pot, and live octopus dishes. Visiting with her mom, the writer ordered the set for two with spicy octopus bokkeum, raw beef tartare (yukhoe), minari pancake, and steamed egg, plus two bowls of rice, and mixing the spicy octopus with rice and gim (seaweed) made a bowl disappear in seconds. On a day craving both spicy food and raw beef tartare, the set for two was exactly right.
