Sampal Hoetjip 삼팔횟집
Yangyang · Hajodae, Gisamun & Dongho · Meal
This raw-fish house stands in the fishing village of Gisamun and serves the usual East Coast menu: mulhoe, hoedeopbap rice bowls and sliced fish prepared in the saekkosi style, with small bones left in for a crunchy bite. The fish is chosen by the day's catch, so ask the staff what is freshest. The setting is simple, with basic tables and quick service, and portions are generous.
Prices are on the higher side, especially for platters. Note the afternoon break between three and five. Booking is helpful at weekends.
Its name refers to the 38th parallel, which passes nearby.
It is at the entrance to Gisamun port, with parking around the shop. Local buses run along the coast but a taxi is easier. (Show a driver: 삼팔횟집)
