๐ฝ What We Ordered: Haemul Jjim (Spicy Seafood Stew)
✅ First Impressions: A feast for the eyes!
The seafood stew was overflowing with fresh ingredients, including scallops, octopus, squid, shrimp, and mussels. Everything looked vibrant and smelled amazing the moment it hit the table.
-
Highlight: The octopus was super fresh and had a satisfying chewy texture.
-
Seasoning: Bold and spicy, but not overpowering. Perfect balance of heat and umami.
The stew was also packed with crunchy bean sprouts and water parsley, which paired excellently with the seafood.
๐ A Bowl of Rice Is a Must!
The broth was so flavorful that plain rice is a must-have. I was too full to try the fried rice option this time, but I’ll definitely go for it next visit. The seasoning begs to be mixed with rice!
