5 portions of grilled eel and gejang in Gwangju: Ppaksen Eel Songjeong
Ppaksen Freshwater Eel Songjeong Station Branch is a grilled freshwater eel restaurant in Gwangsan, Gwangju, a five-minute walk from Songjeong Station. On a weekend dinner the writer and her husband ordered 3 portions of premium eel, then added 2 portions of regular eel and grilled deodeok, loving the charcoal grill and the self-serve green onion kimchi and ginger combo. It's a good-value spot for a day when you want to eat a lot of eel, and big.
