\n EP. Na Jeong-sun Grandma's Octopus<\/span>\n Squid and fried rice<\/span>\n 2025. 00. 00<\/span>\n <\/h2>\n <\/summary>\n

There is only one Jjukkumi in Dongdaemun-gu
There is a neighborhood where the entire alleyway was created.
Yongdu-dong Jjukkumi Alley,
The starting point of that alley is Na Jeong-sun Halmae Jjukkumi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While my friends had already taken a seat and were eating
I joined a little late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Grandmother Na Jeong-sun, originally from Mokpo, South Jeolla Province, in 1981
It started with opening a Korean home-style meal restaurant in Yongdu-dong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the stir-fried baby octopus made with leftover ingredients gained popularity through word of mouth
Since 1988, placing eight drums
It is known that they turned their main dish to stir-fried baby octopus.
It is said that the current Jjukkumi Alley was created later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The hall is much wider than I thought.
Even though I went at the tail end of lunch, the tables were almost full.
The sound of the grill spinning and the chatter mingle to fill the shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1 serving of baby octopus 350g (15,000 won)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The food menu consists of only one dish: baby octopus.
Since it's one order per person, it comes out according to the number of people,
Aprons are self-service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I joined late and ordered an extra serving.
When you order, raw baby octopus mixed with seasoning
It comes out in the bowl as is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When you turn up the heat, the seasoning immediately boils.
From here on, it's a race against time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cephalopod meat cooks for a very short time, so
If you cook it quickly over high heat, it becomes chewy,
If you fry it for an incomplete amount of time, the muscle fibers contract, so
It becomes tough in an instant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tend to prefer eating it lightly cooked and moist.
I feel unnecessarily rushed with the grill in front of me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\",\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The sauce thickens and sticks tightly
Chewy baby octopus also has its own unique taste.
The sweetness that follows the spiciness is appealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place angel hair noodles mixed with mayonnaise on a perilla leaf.
Wrap a piece of baby octopus to quench the spiciness once.
I suppress the rising spiciness with makgeolli.
If you eat like this, you will eat endlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meal ends with the Korean dessert, fried rice.
I ate a simple but satisfying meal.
Makgeolli<\/a> Busy getting dressed, I forgot my duty again.
I forgot the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unique, mouth-watering seasoning flavor that is exclusive to this place and
Considering the price, it seems like it would be frozen.
It is plump and in very good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

True to its reputation, it tastes good and
It is a definitely good restaurant with affordable prices.
I enjoyed the meal \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/details>", "protected": false }, "excerpt": { "rendered": "
