Editor’s overview
Explore Dongnae’s scallion-pancake tradition. Share a substantial pajeon and take your time over one of Busan’s distinctive local dishes.
Menu and ordering
Order the Dongnae pajeon, a soft, custardy pancake of whole uncut spring onions layered with seafood and bound with just enough batter - not the crisp version served elsewhere. It is made to be shared with the house dongdongju rice wine, and the small size is plenty for two.
Dongnae pajeon ₩28,000 (S) / ₩40,000 (L); set menus ₩35,000–40,000 per person
Before you go
