Birthday dinner with crab nabe and flower bream at Gatpo Karin
Gatpo Karin is an upscale Japanese izakaya on the 4th floor near Apgujeong Rodeo Station in Gangnam, Seoul. For a birthday dinner, seating at the bar table meant watching the kitchen prepare grilled Geoje flower bream, Karin futomaki, and a spicy seafood crab nabe (hot pot) right up close. Prices run higher than a typical izakaya, but it's a great pick for a date or celebration.
