KOREA VLOG Ep. 3: Korean Fish Market in Seoul! Fresh Sashimi, Crab, Abalone, and more~

Күн бұрын

Noryangjin (노량진) is one of my favorite traditional Korean fish markets that I like to go to in Seoul, Korea. You can pick FRESH LIVE SEAFOOD from the market, and then they cut it right in front of you. Afterward, they will take the seafood to the restaurant to prepare and cook it for you. #koreanfood #seafood #seoul
This was actually wifey's first time going to a traditional fish market! It was definitely fun to watch her reactions. Have you ever been to a traditional Korean fish market?
We had fresh sashimi, live octopus, live spoonworm, shellfish, clams, shrimps, razor clam, abalone, and crab, and we ended it with a seafood hotpot!
If you want to be fancy with it, you can check out how Mama Cho made crab rice! 😎🦀
Make sure to put this on your Things to do in Seoul list!
Stay tuned for more episodes on my Korea Vlog~

So, I wonder how much they would have charged if you had not supplied the main components to the dish? But you guys had a great time and we all learned to ask about cooking fee in the future. Can only imagine what that meal would cost in America. 🤣😍😍

Always ask how much they charge for the cooking when ordering or even entering the restaurant. When we went they only charge us per head for the cooking fee which I think it was fair and cheaper. We ask everything so it was really transparent.
