## In short

Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido is a Korean restaurant in Yeongdeungpo, Seoul, serving wood-fired grilled fish and set meals. I ordered the 19,500 won grilled hairtail set and 10,500 won fish roe stew set, plus unlimited self-bar banchan, tteokbokki, and scorched-rice soup. Verdict: the hairtail with house ssamjang and spicy fish roe stew were a fantastic pairing.

I was craving Korean food for the first time in a while, so I came by. This is a fresh new Yeouido lunch spot that has not been open for long. I tend to avoid making grilled fish at home because of the smell, so it is the best that a great grilled-fish restaurant has opened in Yeouido bb.

There were so many customers that I wondered if Yeouido had always been this busy on weekends. Even though Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido is quite large inside, it was packed with diners.

There were so many varied menu items that I filmed them. Perhaps because there is a separate kids' menu, Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido had lots of family groups. There are quite a few no-kids restaurants these days, but Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido is a family-friendly(?) restaurant 👍

## Tteokbokki and banchan at the self bar

Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang has a self bar, and it is amazing; there is ridiculously delicious tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes).

On one side, both tteokbokki and sungnyung (scorched-rice soup) are unlimited refill!! They even keep them warm on an induction cooker.

At Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido, even the banchan (small side dishes) are unlimited. I was touched that I could keep helping myself to side dishes that are a hassle to make at home, such as braised lotus root, japchae, and seasoned cucumber.

I ordered the grilled hairtail set (₩19,500) and fish roe stew set (₩10,500). I originally planned to order only grilled fish, but someone next to me was eating the fish roe stew so deliciously that I ordered it too ⭐️ So good.

## How was the grilled hairtail set?

The golden-brown grilled hairtail looked fantastic from the start. The outside was lightly crisp and released a nutty aroma, while the flesh inside was moist and tender, separating easily along the flakes with just a touch of chopsticks.

The hairtail itself was mild with a subtly rich, oily nuttiness. Put a piece over hot rice and it is a true rice thief. The seasoning was not too strong, so this grilled hairtail set really let the fish's own flavor come through.

Especially because it was golden outside and moist within, I hated seeing the grilled hairtail disappear ㅠㅡㅠ

Especially, wrapping a piece of hairtail in ssam greens with a spoonful of Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang's special ssamjang (seasoned soybean paste) was seriously heaven...

## Spicy fish roe stew set and hairtail together

The fish roe stew set. It looked spicy just from seeing it. This is a fish roe stew set that would be hard for a Yeouido office worker to dislike. One spoonful of broth was pleasantly spicy and deeply savory, making it perfect as a hangover meal.

The banchan that come with the fish roe stew. (The ssam greens come only with the grilled hairtail set.)

The roe had that lovely popping texture in the mouth, and the fish milt was soft and nutty, going so well with the broth. Picking out and eating the ingredients was fun too, so this was not merely a soup to drink; it was filling enough to enjoy as a proper meal 😃 Above all, after enjoying the mild, nutty grilled hairtail, a mouthful of fish roe stew broth cleansed the palate with its spicy kick—the best combination.

Hwadeogeuro Gan Godeungeo Bansang Yeouido, a Yeouido lunch spot I visited for the first time in a while. Maybe because it is grilled in a wood-fired oven, it was definitely 100 times more delicious than grilled fish at home 😆
