Right next to it is a fish tank, which adds to the atmosphere inside. I noticed that it's not just eat-and-leave: there's a space you can use before and after the meal, too. ## Does the Daedo Jangeo restroom have toothbrushes, mouthwash and cotton swabs? Yes, around the sink in the Daedo Jangeo restroom there are supplies like toothbrushes, mouthwash, floss and cotton swabs. Facilities like the restroom are something I notice at a restaurant almost as much as the taste of the food, and the restroom here was tidy too. ![Tidy restroom interior at Daedo Jangeo](https://img.superchart.com/images/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup-22-jvh4v-900.webp) ![Supplies set out around the restroom sink](https://img.superchart.com/images/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup-23-dgzwm-759.webp) ![Toothbrushes, mouthwash and cotton swabs in the restroom](https://img.superchart.com/images/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup/changwon-daedo-eel-charcoal-grill-soup-24-18585-866.webp) I especially liked that with toothbrushes, mouthwash, floss and cotton swabs ready, you can freshen up after the meal and head out feeling neat.
