Review
Yeoldu Balguni Songdo Branch is a marinated crab restaurant that has won many awards and is certified as a safe restaurant that serves high-quality foods by the government.
The restaurant is not difficult to find because it's located on the 2nd floor of a building on the main road.
As soon as you walk into the restaurant, the first thing that you'll smell is the overpowering scent of Cheonggukjang (청국장), soy bean paste soup.
Although the smell may be strong, the taste is absolutely delicious!
In addition to the normal seating areas, there are also areas where you can sit down. You can sit wherever you would like.
On the wall, there are many autographs by famous people including the members of Infinite Challenge, and a photograph of the very famous Yoo Jae-suk.
We quickly grabbed a seat and didn't hesitate too long to order.
Marinated crab set
70,000 won
The menu we ordered first is the marinated crab set and cheonggukjang tteokgalbi.
The crab set for 2 people includes marinated crabs, Korean soybean soup, and cheonggukjang.
If you order for 1 person, you will only get 1 Korean soybean soup.
There are so many other delicious side dishes that fill up the table!
Marinated soy sauce crab
Soybean soup
Cheonggukjang
It looks very appetizing, doesn't it?
Cheonggukjang is a soup made from cheonggukjang sauce. This sauce is similar to Korean soybean paste but since it is made from different raw ingredients, the cheonggukjang has a very rich flavor and aroma.
If you have a hard time eating Korean soybean soup because of the pungent smell, you may not like cheonggukjang either. But if you have an open mind about trying traditional Korean dishes, you will like it!
The rice at this restaurant is very special. It is cooked separately and sticks to the bottom of the pot for a deeper taste.
The owner of the restaurant is very kind. They explained the best way to eat the rice with marinated crabs to us.
The ingredients that are given to make the rice more flavorful are seaweed, rice, and sesame oil. The secret of the restaurant is to add 2 additional spoons of marinated crab sauce and mix up the rice!
Here it is! It looks so delicious, doesn't it?
The ratio of the sauce was perfect. It was still steaming as it went in our mouths.
Once the rice was prepared, we ate the crabs.
The restaurant uses local ingredients to ferment over 30 different types of crabs, which gives the crabs the perfect salty and sweet flavor.
There is also a lot of fresh meat inside the crabs.
Cheonggukjang tteokgalbi
13,000 won
Another dish that we ordered was the giant tteokgalbi with the flavor of cheonggukjang.
At first, the smell of the soy sauce was very strong we were quite worried about it being too salty. But it was seasoned just right. It was so delicious! It was definitely worth a try.
The restaurant has another special way of eating the tteokgalbi. You must eat it with perilla leaves, cheonggukjang sauce, and some vegetables.
They fit together so perfectly.
Fried dumpling
5,000 won
Another menu we ordered was the fried dumpling. In just one bite, the juices inside made our mouths water. This is a must-try when you visit the restaurant.
Even though we ate a full meal and we were getting full, we made sure to save our stomachs for some more dishes!
This is called Nureungji (누릉지). Koreans like to eat this to clear up their stomachs after eating a large meal.
Each dish is made with meticulous care and attention with special tips to enjoy the food better. We can understand why it is highly loved by celebrities and locals.
