Anjirang Gopchang Alley 안지랑곱창골목
Daegu · Apsan & Daemyeong-dong · Meal
Dozens of small shops grill marinated pork intestines on charcoal briquettes along this lane, a Daegu staple that is cheap, smoky and rowdy. Tables are close together, the smell of char hangs in the air, and groups of friends order rounds of gopchang with a pot of soup and soju on the side. It is hearty comfort food rather than a refined meal, and it suits adventurous eaters.
Some menus are Korean only, so point at the photos. Dress in clothes you do not mind smelling of grill smoke, and expect to pay by the plate rather than per person.
Walk five minutes from exit 3 of Anjirang Station on Subway Line 1; the subway is easier than driving. (Show a driver: 안지랑곱창골목)
