King crab season in Sokcho

Hello!

I'm wondering which restaurants in Sokcho have their own dedicated fishing boats?

I know of Yu Jin Steamed crab, which is well known, and I saw a king crab place as well, but lost the name).

I know everything that's caught is sold to the local restaurants, but there are few places that directly catch what they prepare.

I'm aware there are fish markets, but I'm looking for a sit in restaurant for king crab, not stalls..

If you know of other restaurants that catch their own fish, please share them here.

Thank you!

Food Regulations

Hello everyone,

I need a bit of help.

I'm visiting for a few weeks and I'm bringing some specific food items with me to make days traveling easier.

I can reach Customs by phone, but I can't understand them. They don't have an email.

I plan to bring Quest brand protein bars.

After researching, sealed protein bars are allowed so long as dairy isn't the primary ingredient.

The main ingredient of Quest bars is a protein blend containing a milk protein isolate. However, Quest bars and products can be ordered through Coupang.

I'm so confused 🥹

Can someone help me verify if I can bring these with me?

Thank you 🙏🏻

Hidden Gem or Weird?

I'm familiar with LA galbi and Galbijiim, but came across a place on Naver that has grilled pork bone in different sauces/flavours. I've only seen pork bone served with soup.

Upon researching different BBQ styles, fatty cuts of pork are typically braised or slow cooked until tender. They are also grilled. However, grilled slices are much thinner.

I can't envision the texture of what eating a grilled pork bone in this style would be like. Has anyone tried this before?

Check the second and third menu items:

I can't tell if it would be tender or chewy and weird.

Non Local Cuisine

Hiya :)

I've never been to South Korea, but hear about how good the food is!

I've read stories from those who have traveled, and they have discovered food in South Korea that's even better than its place of origin. For example, pizza!

Everything is subjective, of course, but this made me wonder, what other cuisines does South Korea excel at? Mexican? Italian?

For expats and those who have traveled, sometimes we discover a meal in another country that's better than what we've tried in it's country of origin.

Have you had an experience like this in South Korea?

FOOD!

Hi everyone!

I'll be visiting for the first time and I'm using Naver to locate top restaurants. I understand the rating system and reviews. However, the restaurants running an AD, with heaps of reviews (like 11k) and a high rating, I'm not sure about. Are they good also?
