Pyeonghwa Market Fried Gizzard Alley 평화시장닭똥집골목
Daegu · Palgongsan & Dongchon · Meal
A lane near Dongdaegu Station is packed with shops frying chicken gizzards in different styles: crisp fried, spicy sauce or soy-glazed. The pieces are chewy and rich, served in baskets with pickles and cabbage salad, perfect with beer. It is cheap, informal and popular with friends and with travelers who have a train to catch.
The alley feels lively after dark. Menus are in Korean, but pointing works. If you do not enjoy chewy textures, order a regular fried chicken instead.
Plates are shareable.
