Pohang Dwaeji-gukbap — Restaurant in Busan

I originally came here from a recommendation and I would say the overall experience was just alright. The gukbap was good but nowhere near the best I’ve had in the past.

The soup itself is very light and a little bland on its own, but there are condiments available to customise it to your own liking. There is also a self-service bar, where you can get refills for the side dishes. Furthermore, the portions of meat were quite generous for the price.

Overall, it's a simple, good, hearty meal that's not too heavy. It's worth giving a try at least once if you are...
