Halibut sashimi and soju, Songdo fish market: Songdo Jonghap Eosijang

Hi, this is Seo-eun :) Today's post is about a visit to Songdo Jonghap Eosijang, because I was craving sashimi in Songdo 🐟

Here's the storefront!

Inside Songdo Jonghap Eosijang: what the fish market restaurant looks like

🏠 Inside the restaurant, you feel that lively fish-market energy the moment you walk in! Overall it was a comfortable place to sit and enjoy sashimi and drinks, and with proper tables set up it was also a good spot for a meal with friends or a partner.

The 12,000-won lunch sashimi set and self-serve side dish bar

I noticed they were selling a lunch sashimi set meal for ₩12,000! Seems like a great reason to visit at lunchtime (๑˃؂˂๑) You can also grab extra basic side dishes from the self-serve bar!

What we ordered: small halibut sashimi and Chum Churum soju

This time we ordered small halibut sashimi + Chum Churum soju!

As a base, we got seaweed soup, wasabi, makjang dipping sauce, chili, garlic, corn salad and baek-kimchi (white, non-spicy kimchi)!

Seasoned vegetables, lettuce and perilla leaves came out too!!

And then sushi rice, fish, and even steamed egg!!

You have to eat sashimi with fresh grated wasabi.. just ask and they'll give it to you, so go ahead and request it⭐️

How the halibut sashimi tasted

🐟 Halibut sashimi is best eaten right after it's ordered, of course😉 The halibut overall had firm, springy flesh with a great texture.

Look at that gorgeous soju.. sashimi and soju, an unbeatable combo..🤤💦 Chum Churum, essential when eating sashimi! The halibut had a clean, mild flavor that paired even better with the soju.😘

Spicy vinegar sauce or soy sauce with halibut?

I'm team vinegar sauce!! Both are so good though💛 The flavor is clean and mild, so it was delicious dipped in spicy vinegar sauce, and also great with just a light dip in soy sauce to really taste the halibut itself🫶🏻 There wasn't much of a fishy taste either, so I kept reaching for more without any hesitation!!

It went great with the sushi rice too, and paired really well with the makjang dipping sauce (ღ'ᴗ'ღ )

Is Songdo Jonghap Eosijang worth a visit?

🐟 Overall, Songdo Jonghap Eosijang was a solid, low-pressure choice when I wanted sashimi and a drink in Songdo! If you like halibut's signature chewy texture and clean flavor, I think you'll enjoy it without any complaints!! Recommended ~
