MealFood & marketsHistory & palacesIndoor

Inside the covered lanes of Kkangtong Market, this small restaurant serves jeongol, a shallow hot pot simmered at the table with yubu pouches, which are pockets of fried tofu stuffed with glass noodles and vegetables. The broth is mild and slightly sweet, and the dish suits a quick, cheap lunch between rounds of market shopping. Counter seats keep service fast, and the shop turns tables briskly.

Sit down, point at the pot, and pour broth over a bowl of rice if you like. Opening hours depend on market days, and prices may change; bring a little cash in case cards are not accepted.
