How to grill the eel — 70% pre-grilled, 3 minutes per side

The main event has arrived — salt-grilled freshwater eel from 99Jangeo88 Suwon Homaesil Branch! Two eels come per set, and they're huge... but even better that they come pre-grilled!

Since they come 70% pre-grilled, they lay one side down first, flip after 3 minutes, and after another 3 minutes it's ready to eat deliciously! haha Even a handy tip on how to eat it well!!!!

It's delicious even just dipped in the basic sauce, but eaten together with the tasty sides, it's paradise! Personally, the pickled perilla leaves were the kick of the day lol. But don't worry, everything was a winner ㅠ

The complimentary doenjang jjigae and turmeric rice

The complimentary doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew) that comes with the meal at 99Jangeo88 Suwon Homaesil Branch! I was debating whether to order doenjang jjigae separately, but it came free — jackpot!!!! haha lol

The generous doenjang jjigae at 99Jangeo88 Suwon Homaesil Branch had big chunks of tofu, onion, and zucchini, so we ended up ordering rice too lol. But honestly, the broth alone was delicious... so rich...
