Ganjanggejang is a Korean cuisine made by boiling and cooling various ingredients and soy sauce, then repeatedly pickling live crabs in it. Did you know that soy sauce crab is a popular dish not only among Koreans but also around the world these days? Also, Soy sauce marinated beef ribs (soyangnyeom galbi) is one of the must-try dishes when visiting Korea. Today, I will introduce a restaurant in Myeong-dong called 'Gosire' where you can eat soy sauce marinated crab and beef short ribs at the same time.

Our Visit
Today, I went to Gosire, a specialized restaurant for charcoal-grilled meat located in Myeongdong.
Gosire sells a variety of foods from various meats to mackerel and soy sauce-marinated crab, and among Koreans, soy sauce-marinated crab and seasoned ribs are known to be delicious.
Even for Create Trip, Goshire has released a popular marinated galbi and soy sauce crab set for both foreigners and Koreans.
If you make a reservation and come, you can immediately taste delicious galbi and soy sauce marinated crab!
The store is divided into two floors, and the first floor has plenty of seats and is pleasant, and the basement floor is also spacious, so you can eat without feeling burdened.
The window of the first floor room is decorated in traditional Korean style.
The basement floor is divided into multiple rooms and various seating options are available from tables for two to group seating.
The basic set comes with lettuce pickled sauce and four side dishes, and you can dip them in sauce with meat.
*2 person set: Soy sauce marinated crab 2 + beef short ribs \115,000
The Create Trip exclusive 2-person set has been released.
The meat was grilled right away and the soy sauce crab was already marinated, so it came out really quickly.
The boss said he makes the galbi marinade himself.
I'm really looking forward to how delicious the well marinated soy sauce galbi will be!
The soy sauce marinated crab is also not supplied by a factory, but made and stored by hand, so the taste is even better.
The clams are showing off their brilliant appearance and clamoring for food!
First, grill the meat.
The employee said they will not only bring the meat but also cut it for us, and sometimes even keep grilling it for us when they have time!
It's more delicious to eat beef that's not fully cooked, but first I eat only the meat to taste the unique flavor of the meat.
The meat juice bursts out in my mouth and blends perfectly with the seasoning. Despite being thick, it's not tough or chewy, but rather surprisingly tender.
Recognized as the best restaurant for marinated beef ribs!
If you only eat meat, you tend to feel greasy! At that time, you can dip it in this special sauce and eat it with lettuce.
Eating lettuce with broken pieces is like eating a wrap without wrapping it.
Finally, try eating it together with kimchi.
This method is also a favorite of the editor whenever he/she eats meat, as the spiciness of kimchi helps to cut the greasiness of the meat.
Now I'm going to try soy sauce marinated crab bibimbap, but before that, the owner showed us the whole process of making it.
Firstly, put the seasoning, crab meat, and eggs on the rice in the Geotjabe.
Chamgireum (sesame oil) is added and mixed until the meat and eggs inside the crab body are squeezed out and added, then continue to mix.
Then, the Gejang Bibimbap is complete!
The harmony of the nuttiness of sesame oil, the nuttiness of roasted seaweed powder, the lightness of crab meat, and the overall seasoning that matches well as soon as it touches your tongue.
Especially when topped with seasoned galbi, it blends well with the ribs and doesn't feel too heavy!
And then, try the unique taste of soy sauce crab by biting off and sucking the meat from the other half of the crab's body!
