Noryangjin

24 February 2012, 8th day in Korea.

Noryangjin, one of my favorite eating place in Seoul, at this very moment. I finally find myself a good break away from chicken and pork. Not that, I don’t eat meat that often, but, I don’t eat it as a daily basis, and sometimes, I am actually perfectly enjoy my meal even though there is no meat in it. I think, in Korea, everyone loves chicken so much (can see from all their franchises chain stores mainly related to chicken) it seems like, we are having chicken meal every single day. Sometimes over 3 meals in a day. Korea’s chicken must have some really special ingredient that make it taste so good. But, I really doesn’t like to have it almost everyday / every meal!

Well, if that’s the case, Noryangjin might be for you! (But, it’s kind of cruel that most of them are LIVE seafood!)

It’s not too difficult to go Noryangjin. You can take the Seoul Subway to Noryangjin via Line 1 or Line 9. Though they don’t share the same station, but they are only 25meter away from each other πŸ™‚

#Noryangjin station that really look very different. It feels like those country-side train station. Got excited and take lots of touristy photo to remember! πŸ™‚

Photobucket

#the train that are moving very fast (when we are standing outside) slow when we are inside :/

Photobucket

#empty tracks that give a very beautiful feel.

Photobucket

#I need a touristy photo and just nice, the train came. Perfect moment! πŸ™‚

#Mcdonald that look like Korean. LOL

#stalls that sells good food, really πŸ˜‰

Photobucket

#this is the signboard that I was telling you previously. Just follow it and lead you a world of seafood! πŸ™‚

Photobucket

#remind me of the old chinatown market.

Photobucket

# feel of a wet market that sells only fresh food πŸ™‚

Photobucket

#we went up to level two. this place is slightly different. We buy/choose/pick the seafood from the wet market. And ask the restaurant to cook for us. All we need is to pay them the cooking and seating cost πŸ™‚ Heard from violet, this is the cleanest place here. So, we will recommend you to have your meal here again πŸ™‚

Photobucket

#indeed it look really clean, and felt very comfortable πŸ™‚

Photobucket

Photobucket

#ah paul doesn’t look too appealing! πŸ™

Photobucket

#sea urchin, but the seller cheat our feeling, heard that nothing is edible inside!

Photobucket

#ah paul find chilies :/

Photobucket

#the BBQ prawns

Photobucket

#abalone..

Photobucket

#some of them doesn’t take raw food, so we order a seafood pot! FISHES, i saw. I love the soup! Im a soupy person πŸ˜€

Overall, I really enjoyed this very special experience, from deciding the food to selection. Then, get it cooked by the restaurant for our delicious dinner spread. But, this place definitely not for a non-seafood person. I have no idea if they provide non-seafood soup base for us though. I love the food, can’t forget the salmon, and wished there’s more days for us to come again.

This is definitely a place I will bring my friends if we are heading to Korea together! πŸ™‚
