We start with jjukkumi bokkeum- spicy grilled baby octopus- a cracker of a dish! Jjukkumi is cooked on a hotplate on the table and served with banchan and is eaten ssam style (in a wrap). This meal was a major highlight of this trip to Seoul- spicy, tender and the accompanying banchan and sauces were perfect!

Next up we head to grilled fish alley in Dongadaemun, a narrow street made up of small restaurants serving grilled fish set meals made up of rice, soup and banchan. Smoky, tender filets of fish and a generous amount of sides make for a really satisfying meal.

We finish with pajeon- a Korean pancake. Pajeon alley is famous for serving pancakes with a thick, crispy edge and they’re really great value too. We wash our seafood pancake down with makgeolli, Korean rice wine. A must eat!
