Jeju Aewol-eup<\/a><\/p>\n

Donggyeong Bapsang<\/b><\/p>\n

On the last day of our Jeju trip, it was good to save time and reduce travel by sightseeing in Aewol, which is convenient for getting to the airport. We decided on eel grilled over rice at Donggyeong Bapsang for our last meal in Jeju.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Donggyeong Bapsang is a restaurant that offers Unaju (eel over rice), its signature dish, prepared in a traditional Tokyo style. We carefully prepare each meal using the finest domestic Japonica eel.<\/p>\n

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

Opens at 11:30 AM<\/b> (No break time)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

There were 16 teams waiting in line via Catch Table inside the store.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

[Waiting Area]<\/b><\/p>\n

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

The waiting area was spacious, and the view from the window was beautiful, so some people waited inside. However, my husband and I asked a staff member about the waiting time. After being told it would take about 1 hour and 30 minutes, we headed to a bakery called [Butter Morning], which was a 15-minute drive away.<\/p>\n

We were disappointed to find out that the bread, which looked like ‘condensed milk bread,’ was so popular that it could only be purchased by reservation, so we made a wasted trip. On our way back to Donggyeong Bapsang, the number of waiting teams had decreased significantly, and it was our turn. We called the store and requested a 5-minute postponement.<\/p>\n

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

We took off our shoes before entering. Although there were no doors, there were many private spaces like rooms, and to the right, near the kitchen, there were counter-style tables where you could sit on the floor.<\/p>\n

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

The restaurant, with its traditional Japanese tatami flooring, boasts a charming atmosphere.<\/p>\n

[Menu]<\/b><\/p>\n

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

We ordered the Unaju set, which cost 43,000 won per person.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

[Rice]<\/b><\/p>\n

We appreciated that they announced the date of milling. Rice is very important for rice bowls.<\/p>\n

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

The neatly presented side dishes included grilled seaweed, two types of pickled ginger, pickled radish, white kimchi, and a salad for each person.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Although the backlighting was unfortunate, we took commemorative photos while waiting for the eel over rice.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The open design offered a sense of spaciousness.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

After 10 minutes, the eel over rice and miso soup were served.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The eel grilled over rice, filling a square bento box, was served with a bowl of white miso soup containing seaweed.<\/p>\n

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

While some may prefer to enjoy the pure flavor of the eel,<\/p>\n

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

I enjoy eating it wrapped in seaweed. The eel was thick and tender, and the rice was also excellent. It was truly delicious.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ochazuke<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

We slurped up the remaining rice. It was made with katsuobushi, not green tea, which made it taste great.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A pudding was served as dessert, and it was delicious.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n

We left feeling full. The selection of restaurants on this trip was a success without any failures, allowing us to truly enjoy a culinary journey.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n

After finishing our meal, we sat on the veranda of Donggyeong Bapsang and enjoyed “ocean gazing” while looking at the Aewol sea, taking many photos. Everything was satisfactory: the food, the atmosphere, the service, and the healing view.<\/p>\n

If you want to enjoy a nourishing meal in Aewol, we recommend visiting Donggyeong Bapsang. May all my neighbors stay healthy!<\/p>\n
