Yangji Sikdang — Restaurant in Seoul

The food was simple, homey and value for money. Only KRW8,000 per person and unlimited refill on everything. We had fried fish for the day, and the banchan was amazing. There was marinated raw crabs (small crabs), quail eggs, zucchini and pajeon, these are no ordinary banchan, certainly won’t be free. We arrived a at peak lunch hour, around 12:15pm on a Saturday.

Worth trying if you are a foreigner who does not have access to this sort of...

They might have something else on different days. The price was 7000₩ per person and you pay at the the beginning.
