Hwanggeum Gejang 황금게장
Yeosu · Dolsan Island & Hyangiram · Meal
A crab set-meal restaurant on the main road across Dolsan Bridge, useful when the more famous spots have a line. The format is the same as elsewhere in Yeosu: rice, soup, side dishes and marinated crab, eaten by hand. The soy-sauce version is milder, while the red-pepper one is spicy.
Staff will bring extra sides on request. It is easier to get a table here than at the best-known names, though weekends still bring crowds. English is minimal, so point at photos or the neighboring tables.
Prices vary with the season and may change.
