Wow.. when it came out I literally gasped out loud!! Isn't the visual seriously amazing??💯💯 For ₩40,000, isn't that such a steal? The portion was genuinely huge, we were shocked 👏👏 It had been so long since I had agujjim, so I was really looking forward to it, and it lived up to every bit of that expectation haha. The monkfish meat was so plump and meaty that my partner and I kept gasping as we ate..! We even said it might be one of the best agujjim we've had in our lives 😋 ![Visual of the ₩40,000 agujjim plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner-11-1sukg-900.webp) ![Close-up of agujjim topped with minari and bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner-12-mj0mc-900.webp) ### The sauce that makes this place stand out Can you see how plump the monkfish is?? It was so soft and so well soaked in sauce that we didn't get tired of it 😊 And piling on the minari (water celery) and bean sprouts with each bite made it even more delicious!👍 The agujjim sauce here was genuinely special!! It seemed like they had some secret recipe unlike any agujjim I've had before 😳 I think literally anyone would love this. I really recommend it, the sauce is just so good 🤤 ![A piece of plump monkfish soaked in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner-13-n60nk-900.webp) We also tried spooning some sauce onto the sweet potato that came with it, and sure enough, since the sauce itself is so good, it went well with everything. The owner really has serious cooking skills!!💕 ![Sweet potato topped with agujjim sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner-14-tfoxx-900.webp) ### Soy-wasabi dip available on request Where I'm from, we usually dip agujjim in soy sauce with wasabi, so I asked the owner for some, and while it was tasty dipped, the sauce here was so good on its own that it was just as delicious without dipping haha. Before I knew it, my hand was just eating it plain 😙 The sauce at Sintongyeong Agu Suyuk.Tang is honestly amazing ![Agujjim paired with Daesun soju](https://img.superchart.com/images/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner/sintongyeong-agujjim-suyeong-dinner-15-1mygl-900.webp) With food this good, you've got to have some Daesun soju while you're in Busan. Paired with the sauce you never get tired of and the tender monkfish, it was such a satisfying dinner 👏👏 ## To wrap up I visited , a favorite near Suyeong Station ~ The interior was clean, the vibe was great, and the owner was so kind that it left me in a great mood. The banchan were varied and tasty, and the main dish, agujjim, had a generous portion with plump, meaty monkfish that was so delicious 🐟😳🩷 Most importantly, the sauce was so good it left me speechless.
