Loved their 고등어구이 (grilled mackerel) and definitely worth trying the 몸국 (momguk or gulfweed soup), something that is special to Udo Island. That dish is quite healthy and older people would probably love this one. Their 고사리육개장 (Spicy Bracken and Beef Soup) was very different from the regular 육개장 you normally find in Korea so definitely worth a tey as well. The place I ran to as soon as I arrived at Jeju Airport early in the morning! A local restaurant~ Even though I visited early in the morning and was eating, they welcomed me so kindly! It was my first time eating body soup, but it was so delicious! The mackerel sashimi was recommended, so I ordered it, and it melted in my mouth,,,,, What would I have done if I hadn't tried it! This is the best thing I ate in Jeju Island! The owner is incredibly kind, and the momguk is the best. It's even better than the gosari yukgaejang.

I visited this restaurant to try some of Jeju's specialty dishes. The broth was simmered with fernbrake yukgaejang (Korean beef soup) and body soup. It was tender and delicious. It would be a great hangover cure. The side dishes were delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly.

The bracken fern yukgaejang was delicious because it was spicy and rich, the dombae meat was cooked well without any smell, the side dishes were delicious, and the store was clean. I was very satisfied with the meal. I think it would be good to drink alcohol in the evening.
