Seafood stew restaurant near Bucheon Station adds octopus: Haemul

Haemul Teukbyeolsi Bucheon Station branch is a seafood restaurant near Bucheon Station in Gyeonggi serving monkfish stew, mixed seafood stew, and algoni-jjim (fish roe and milt stew). A couple ordered the hot stone algoni-jjim set and added a whole octopus for ₩5,000 through a Naver receipt review event, and wrapping the roe, milt, bean sprouts, and minari in the accompanying rice cracker turned out to be the highlight. It's a solid pick for a spicy seafood dinner date with a beer.

Grind-your-own sesame tonkatsu sauce at Himawari, Yangju Okjeong

Himawari Yangju Okjeong Main Branch is a Japanese tonkatsu restaurant in the Okjeong central commercial district of Yangju, Gyeonggi. The writer's family shared the roseu katsu (pork loin cutlet) set, katsu curry set, cheese katsu, and skewer udon, with the table-side sesame-grinding sauce being the biggest hit with the kids. The kids liked it so much they asked to come back every weekend — a solid family dinner spot.
