Dinner near Dongsan Hospital, Daegu: mackerel gondre rice at Hyangtaek
Hyangtaek Seongseo Keimyung University Branch is a Korean restaurant in an alley across from the main gate of Keimyung University, near Seongseo Keimyung University Dongsan Hospital in Dalseo, Daegu. Dinner here was mackerel gondre rice (grilled mackerel with rice and gondre, or thistle greens), mixed with the house sauce and wrapped in thick roasted seaweed, and the grilled mackerel tasted clean rather than fishy. Hyangtaek is worth remembering when you want a mild, tidy Korean meal.
