Horse meat sashimi to shabu-shabu in Jungmun, Seogwipo: Marijoa

Marijoa Seogwipo Jungmun Branch is a certified horse meat course restaurant in Jungmun, Seogwipo, Jeju. The mari course moves through horse meat extract, sashimi and yukhoe, sushi, stir-fried black jireum, malkkaseu and braised ribs, roast grill, and shabu-shabu made from every part of the animal, and the meat was surprisingly tender with none of the strong smell the writer expected. Even after never getting to try black pork on this Jeju trip, this one meal left nothing to regret.

Jeju rice cake shop for shaved-ice topping omegi-tteok: Suragan

Suragan Tteokbang is an omegi-tteok (rice cake) shop near Jeju Airport and Dongmun Market in Jeju City. The writer picked up 20 pieces just before closing time, tasting tangerine, black sesame, mugwort, whole red bean, and nut flavors, then had omegi-tteok, pumpkin injeolmi, and black rice nutrition rice cake shipped to her parents. Frozen storage plus 30 seconds in the microwave — even sliced onto shaved ice — made it a solid pick for a Jeju gift.
