Dongpirang Jjugul 동피랑쭈굴

Tongyeong · Old Town, Gangguan & Dongpirang · Meal

MealFood & marketsIndoor

A casual restaurant at the lower end of the Dongpirang lanes, this place stir-fries oysters together with small octopus in a spicy sauce. Spice level is moderate to strong, so non-spicy eaters should ask about alternatives. It is close to the murals, which makes it a handy stop after the climb.

Lines form at both lunch and dinner, and the usual way to handle this is to write your name on the waiting list first and then wander nearby. Portions are meant for sharing and rice is typically added at the end by frying it in the leftover sauce. Prices are mid-range, and cards are usually accepted, though it is worth confirming.
