Saturday 6pm grilled mackerel dinner in Masan: Masan Ssamjangjip
Masan Ssamjangjip is a 30-dish Korean set-meal (hanjeongsik) restaurant in the Daetgeori area on Haeandae-ro, Masanhappo-gu, Changwon. Arriving on a Saturday at 6pm, the writer ordered the grilled mackerel set for two — 17,000 won per person, 34,000 won for two — which came with side dish refills, free Hangang ramyeon and a fruit and rice cake dessert corner. Guests who turned up around 7pm were turned away because the kitchen had closed, so go early on a weekend evening.
