The signature dish is the #white whisker fish cake, plus an oden platter (moriawase) for 2 at ₩26,000, and there are all kinds of single fish cake skewers and side dishes too. We're huge Napolitan fans, but we were too full to order it. BUT even full, we still wanted something sweet, so we tried to order French toast — sold out T-T Guess that means we have to come back. ✔️ Ordered: white whisker fish cake, radish, cheese fish cake, mochi rice cake!

The fun of picking your own drinking glass

For drinks we went with green tangerine sawa and house sake hahaha Turns out you can pick your own glass to drink from here? Drinking from a pretty glass just makes it taste better, hehe

The glass Domi picked out got snatched away by Gwidong… That glass was seriously pretty, they said it was bought in Hokkaido. I searched shopping lens and it didn't turn up anywhere, so I just asked ^_ㅠ

So what does the signature white whisker fish cake taste like?

The moment you eat it, fresh fish flesh fills your mouth! You eat it like sashimi with wasabi and soy sauce, and you get why it's the signature.. it just melts *_* Such a soft, tender fish cake.

The cheese fish cake, coated in crispy fresh breadcrumbs and packed with three kinds of cheese, was totally my type >< The mochi rice cake, radish, and curly fish cake were all delicious too, every single one.

Fish cake and a tokkuri outdoors — otherworldly happiness

Eating fish cake with a tokkuri of sake outside was pure bliss..!

Shunno Oden Nonhyeon has a strong Japanese izakaya vibe. If you love the feeling of eating fish cake and drinking sake at a small alley izakaya while traveling in Japan, I recommend this without a doubt,

and if you also love outdoor seating, you really should visit.
