It's smooth and refreshing, so it goes down easy~~ We ordered the hungry-couple set no. 5, which was sashimi (small) + oden nabe + mixed skewers for ₩67,000! ### Oden nabe (fish cake hot pot) The oden nabe (fish cake hot pot) came out first, with two pieces each of various fish cake types, so it's good for 2–3 people to share 🫢 ![Oden nabe filled with various fish cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-10-1qyf2-900.webp) The cheese fish cake has savory cheese inside and is so tasty, and the vegetable fish cake is delicious too~~ The twisted fish cake was chewy with a good bite and didn't get soggy! ![A piece of chewy twisted fish cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-11-16nno-900.webp) Overall the fish cakes don't have that floury taste, so they're tasty and soft! The broth is savory and refreshing too, so I kept eating it haha. It even has mugwort, onion, and cabbage in it 👍 ![Oden nabe broth with mugwort and onion](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-12-kber7-900.webp) ![A scoop of oden nabe broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-13-eq9h6-900.webp) Eating the broth with the fish cakes together makes for a perfect soju side dish, so we ended up ordering two bottles of soju hahaha ![Soju bottle placed next to the oden nabe](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-14-rv6u8-900.webp) ### Mixed skewers torched at the table Next up is the mixed skewers! Chicken skin, chicken thigh, gizzard, ginkgo nuts, tomato bacon, cheese rice cake sausage, ginkgo, mushroom, garlic, shrimp skewers, and more, all grilled fresh to order — the smoky flavor is insane~ The chicken thigh and gizzard skewers are super thick, but light while still well-seasoned, making them easy to eat ❣️ ![Thickly grilled chicken thigh and gizzard skewers](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-15-9k5d9-900.webp) The chewy texture is the charm, and the seasoning isn't too salty, just right — a true izakaya skewer spot ^_^ The shrimp skewer!!

It came with salmon, flounder, red seabream, tuna, and mackerel. The salmon was fresh and soft, melting right in your mouth! The tuna was thick and fatty and went perfectly with soju! I also dipped the boiled octopus in chili paste sauce, and it was so chewy~~ ![Small sashimi plate with salmon, flounder, and red seabream](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-23-pif29-900.webp) ![Sashimi plate served with aged fish and boiled octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set/robatayaki-sodam-gudi-two-person-set-24-f2ef1-900.webp) True to a proper Guro izakaya, they sell aged sashimi, and the flounder and red seabream were soft and just melted in my mouth 🥹 ## Is Robatayaki Sodam a good bar for drinks in Guro?
