A second-floor seafood pocha in Bangi-dong, a short walk from Jamsil, set up like a fish-market bar. The menu is sashimi platters, grilled shrimp, sea squirt and sea cucumber; the shrimp is cooked under a glass lid in a pan at your table and the lid comes off when it is done.
The raw shrimp felt like it melted in my mouth and the sashimi was very fresh, but it was the sea squirt that I kept picking up and dipping lightly in chojang, the red dipping sauce. The seafood felt good value, and I left thinking about coming back. For fresh seafood and sashimi in Jamsil it is the first place I would suggest, especially the raw shrimp and the sea squirt. 🦐
Menu and ordering
I ordered raw shrimp (생새우회), sea squirt (참멍게) and fish sashimi (생선회), with soju. 🍶
