Yeonnam-dong ochazuke restaurant near Hongdae: eel and pork, Ochaya

Ochaya is a Japanese home-style ochazuke restaurant in Yeonnam-dong, Mapo, Seoul, an 8-minute walk from Hongik University Station. Two diners shared the unagi chazuke (eel) at 16,000 won and the butanogakuni (braised pork belly) at 14,000 won, pouring the kettle broth over the rice after eating about half. With free refills on the nutrient rice, seaweed, side dishes and broth, Ochaya was a filling meal worth coming back to 100000%.
