Ganghwa duck restaurant with samchae stir-fry and naengmyeon: Deok Ori

Deok Ori Jumulleok Ganghwa Main Branch is a duck stir-fry restaurant on Mani-san Road in Ganghwa, Incheon. On a weekend at 1pm there was no wait for a samchae duck stir-fry at ₩22,000, plus naengmyeon (cold noodles) at ₩7,000 and fried rice at ₩3,000, with the owner grilling the duck first over charcoal outside the restaurant. The duck was tender with no gamey smell, and the samchae (three-flavor herb) cut through the richness, making the noodle and fried rice add-ons well worth it.

Gizzard stir-fry and boneless dakbokkeumtang at Gaebong pocha

Apgujeong Sinpocha is a pocha-style bar on the 2nd floor of a shopping building near Gaebong Station in Guro, Seoul. On a Friday after work, the writer and a friend ordered garlic gizzard stir-fry (₩13,000) and boneless dakbokkeumtang (₩22,000), adding rice balls and udon noodles, and found the gizzard's clean flavor and the spicy, reduced broth made perfect drinking food. It's a solid value spot for getting dinner and drinks done in one place.
