Most of the tables seat four, and the gaps between them were wide enough that I could eat without worrying about the neighboring table, which I loved haha. ![Long dining hall with 4-person tables stretching to the back](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-03-9jc5g-966.webp) There were also some 2-person seats scattered in between, so it's a great spot for two people too! ![A 2-person seating area in the middle of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-04-o4udr-966.webp) ## The kiosk menu and what I ordered You order through a kiosk. It looked like they mainly sell seasonal menu items! When I visited there were options like fresh gizzard shad sashimi, a live shrimp full set, assorted aged sashimi, assorted aged sashimi + sweet shrimp / tiger shrimp, and even side dishes like mackerel bo-sushi (rolled sushi). I ordered the assorted aged sashimi + live sweet shrimp sashimi small set for ₩59,000! ![Kiosk screen showing seasonal sashimi menu items](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-05-1xzlq-966.webp) While waiting, caramel popcorn came out, and I was just popping pieces one by one when the food arrived pretty quickly. ![Caramel popcorn served while waiting](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-06-1kzvh-966.webp) ## A tray piled high with banchan While waiting for the order, the banchan (side dishes) arrived! It came out on a tray absolutely loaded, so generous...! The side dishes alone filled the whole table. ![A tray piled high with banchan side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-07-1cfrq-966.webp) ![Table filled with plates of banchan](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-08-1ynxb-966.webp) Crispy fried squid and sweet potato came out, along with California rolls and spicy tteokbokki (stir-fried rice cakes)! ![Plate of fried squid and fried sweet potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-09-1m1zu-966.webp) ![California rolls and spicy tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-10-3tgnd-966.webp) Then grilled shrimp lettuce wraps, and the corn cheese and okonomiyaki that no sashimi restaurant can be without — such a wide variety! ![Grilled shrimp lettuce wraps and corn cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-11-hvjg5-966.webp) ![Okonomiyaki served as a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-12-2xj42-966.webp) And then cold udon and a vegetable salad! You can eat the vegetables plain, but with the chogochujang (vinegared chili paste) they can be enjoyed like a sashimi bibim salad, which I loved! And the cold udon was so good I kept reaching for more! ![Cold udon and vegetable salad side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-13-146wk-1200.webp) ## Assorted aged sashimi + live sweet shrimp sashimi small set The assorted aged sashimi + live sweet shrimp sashimi small set arrived! There were four different kinds of aged sashimi, so I got to try a nice variety! ![The assorted aged sashimi and live sweet shrimp sashimi small set](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-14-1fb9m-966.webp) ### The legs on the live sweet shrimp sashimi were still moving First up, the one I was most excited about — the live sweet shrimp sashimi..! There were 6 shrimp total, and since they were clearly just caught, the legs were still moving, which made me feel so bad haha. ![Six pieces of live sweet shrimp sashimi on a plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-15-13r35-966.webp) ![Close-up of freshly caught live sweet shrimp sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-16-1a9un-966.webp) Getting ready to eat by removing all the heads...!! You can set the heads aside and ask for them to be fried up later! ![Sweet shrimp meat with the heads removed](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-17-12od1-966.webp) ![Shrimp heads set aside separately](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-18-1k9ho-966.webp) The live sweet shrimp sashimi was REALLY delicious...! The shrimp itself had a lovely springy texture, and the natural sweetness was incredible! Dipped lightly in soy sauce, the combination of soy sauce and the shrimp's sweetness was just the best. I want to come back next time for a whole plate of just the sweet shrimp sashimi! ### Four kinds of aged sashimi: flounder, salmon, yellowtail, red seabream The assorted aged sashimi came in four different kinds! The color alone looked so good that I wanted to dig in right away. Flounder, salmon, yellowtail, and red seabream! Even though it's the small set, I got to taste a good variety, which I loved! ![Four kinds of aged sashimi: flounder, salmon, yellowtail, red seabream](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-19-a6rvx-966.webp) Heads all removed from the sweet shrimp sashimi, now really ready to eat...!! ![A piece of sweet shrimp sashimi dipped in soy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-20-1tztj-966.webp) ![A slice of aged sashimi cut to just the right thickness](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-21-qrmsg-966.webp) The live sweet shrimp sashimi was amazing, but the aged sashimi itself was also really good! The slices were cut to just the right thickness, giving them a great texture along with the umami that's characteristic of aged sashimi! I ate it plain and also wrapped in lettuce! ![Aged sashimi wrapped in lettuce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-22-io6cs-m-966.webp) Sushi rice was also served, so I piled the sashimi on top and made my own neat little hand-rolled sushi haha. ![Hand-rolled sushi made with sushi rice and sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-23-g40fg-966.webp) ![Crispy fried shrimp heads](https://img.superchart.com/images/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi-24-1ykdc-966.webp) ## Finishing with fried shrimp heads Last but not least, the fried shrimp heads arrived...! They were fried so crispy that I could eat almost the whole thing except for the hardest horn part at the top — nutty and delicious! ## In summary ⭐⭐ A must-visit in Jeonpo for aged sashimi and live sweet shrimp sashimi! Not just the sashimi but the sides come out so generously too, making it great for a group visit, and with so many delicious anju (drinking snacks), it's also perfect for having a few drinks! Highly recommend if you want to enjoy a hearty sashimi feast in Jeonpo — this is my pick for a Jeonpo sashimi restaurant! ## Where it is - Rigo Susan Jeonpo Station Main Branch (리고수산 전포역본점) - 13 Jeonpo-daero216beon-gil, 1F, Busanjin-gu, Busan, South Korea - 부산광역시 부산진구 전포대로216번길 13 1층 - 35.1558384, 129.0663266 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A6%AC%EA%B3%A0%EC%88%98%EC%82%B0%20%EC%A0%84%ED%8F%AC%EC%97%AD%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@35.1558384,129.0663266,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@stainless-spoon-3/ligo-susan-jeonpo-live-shrimp-sashimi/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
