When you enter Gwangjang Market, or when you enter any food market, you're overwhelmed by the colors and the smells and you wanna try everything... 🤩 Scratch that, I remember a market in Bangkok where I was overwhelmed by the smell of durian and that made me wanna leave! 🤢 Anyway, when we went to Gwangjang Market, one of the first stalls we saw was 은성회집 Eunseonghoe House which, as its name does not show, mainly offered... soup. Outside of the stall, there were piles of big buckets of fish, tofu (probably?) and veggies, or veggies, roe and something we didn't recognize. Of course, if there's something we've never seen, this is what we wanna try! 🙌 We still kept on walking around, we even had lunch somewhere else, but then my wife insisted on going back and having that soup. It was very cold that day and she needed something hot. Also she had a fight with our son that day so she didn't mind eating something he wouldn't like! 🤣 And you know me, I don't mind eating twice if that means trying something new! 😋 As opposed to the central stalls in the market, this one exclusively is full of locals. I even think the staff was surprised to see us come in, TBH. 😅 We had no clue about how to eat that soup so a guest at the table next to us took our chopsticks and prepared it for us. If we had let him, I'm pretty sure he would have fed us... 😅 That was strange at first, but that's the kind of experience I enjoy the most, when people genuinely enjoy sharing their lifestyle, culture, traditions with me and I enjoy learning from them. 🙏 About the soup, honestly, not much to say, it was ok but not extremely tasty and... I still don't know what we ate 😅 (raw, below the roes on the 1st pic / cooked on the 3rd one)... So if anybody knows, please, feel free to add a comment. 🙏 For this soup, we paid KRW 28K (€18)... we ate 2 but could have been 4, easily! 👍

If you want to avoid long line, try going around 11am on a weekday. A lot of ahjussi drinking soju so its good for anju. The longer you boil the better it taste. Not too...
Read moreBerawal dari keliling Gwangjang Market, terus nemu ini, terus penasaran, terus nanya, terus dikasih tau ini semacam sup ikan, terus singgah.
Maeun- tang, porsinya buanyak bisa tiga orang. Jadi ini ikan yang direbus di kuah kemerahan yang ternyata ga pedas, malah kayak ga ada rasa menurut kami. Aromanya agak asam dikit sama aroma ikan pastinya. Ada tahu dan sayurnya juga.
Ada hidangan porsi kecil disajikan yang warnanya kemerahan juga, ini kayaknya potongan cumi mentah. Rasanya asin, sedikit pedas, dan agak dingin. Sukak sih kami pas campurin dikit ke kuahnya.
Terus ada semacam wasabi dan kecap asin. Abis bayar dikasih gratis dua botol minuman semacam yakult.
Harga: 28.000...
