[Seoul] 팔팔민물장어

[Travel in March/April 2017]

I love Eel or some called it Unagi. I love fishes and almost all kinds except those fried type. So, when I first visited 황가네 꼼장군 I was excited to try this baby eel that I never ate it before. I thought its really tasty and I never ate something that taste like this at all. I guessed, I am really challenging when I travelling, I basically give a try to almost everything except anything-seaweed-or-vinegar haha! So, after the visit at  황가네 꼼장군, I searched around and found this 신촌 풍천장어. So the recent trip, I wanted to bring the girls to eat Eel yet its somewhere new. Really New & Luxury hahahahhahhaha!

Please forgive me of the not-so-sharp-photos for the direction guide as the rain was pretty heavy and I doesn’t have an umbrella.

#we took a normal seating because we so wet, doesn’t want to sit on the floor with our smelly socks too! HAHA

Eel’s bone, its like crackers, and its quite addictive! :p

The menu, we accidentally ordered the luxury eel at 85,000won each (85USD) lol

Their side dishes really yummy, and we were given 2 set each. We only have 4 pax and haha we refilled a few times because its too good! 🙂

quail eggs, who can resist!

potato salad, one of my favourite!

# anchovies

#its a type of squid/octopus etc, not sure haha

#radish

#some greens finally!

and our luxury eel arrived. It’s occupied more than half of our table height!

really luxury, look at the fat meat!

Oh my! i love unagi!

It’s really expensive as it cost 170,000won for this meal, but I think we all ended up have happy tummy! 🙂

Direction to 팔팔민물장어

I’m sorry that the photo turned out quite badly due to the heavy rains, and the lens was blurred, I didn’t realise it until I was back home.
But, its not too difficult to figure out the way, and its quite easy after exit too 🙂

Exit 1 at Sinnohyeon Station & Walk straight

#continue to walk straight, Burger King on your right

Continue to walk straight, IBK bank on your right

#Continue to walk straight!

Did i told you all, I didnt have umbrella, so its really very wet! Husky on the right 🙂

#continue to walk straight

#continue to walk straight, dunkin donuts on your right

#you are almost, go all the way to the end! 🙂

#you will see the shop name at the building on ur right. Walk in! 🙂

#the lens must be really wet!

Anyway, when I was checking the exact english name of this restaurant (which eventually I can’t find lol), I then realise, this is the one that Jung-Suk (Ha Seok-Jin in Drinking solo) went. I love that drama, its so simply and actually telling quite alot of facts about working life too.
