If you don't visit the hagfish restaurant at Jagalchi Market that also serves three kinds of seafood, you're missing out.
The place I'm introducing this time is the original 73-year-old, third-generation Mom's Charcoal-Grilled Hagfish at Jagalchi Market, which offers a seafood trio set.
While hagfish restaurants at Jagalchi Market generally don't have good ratings, this one is different, so I decided to visit.
The owner is very friendly, and the interior of the store is clean.
When you order from the menu, they serve abalone sashimi, sea squirt, and live octopus as complimentary appetizers before the meal.
Since hagfish can be a bit pricey, I recommend grilling it over charcoal.

The Heavenly Taste I Experienced at Keunjip Blood Sausage! Even Pungja is a Fan.
During my trip to Jeonju, I discovered a hidden gem, Keunjip Blood Sausage, where I had an unforgettable culinary experience. I ordered the special blood sausage soup, and the broth was clear and refreshing, making me feel at ease. The soup was generously filled with blood sausage and intestines, making it hearty. The special sauce made with onions, perilla powder, and vinegar was a delightful addition. Dipping the side ingredients in this sauce not only masked the unique smell of pork but also enhanced the flavor. I also recommend wrapping perilla leaves with onions, ssamjang, and intestines for a delicious bite. The side dishes like perilla leaves, fresh kimchi, and onion salad were also tasty. Parking is available, and the owner and staff are friendly. It's a local favorite that I find myself visiting often because I crave the taste from time to time. Recently, it was featured on a show where Pungja visited. If you come to Jeonju, be sure to stop by!

Seomyeon Cafe Dex Coffee Mocha Orchestra.
Dex Coffee in Seomyeon is famous for its stylish interior and unique signature drinks. I ordered a basic Americano and Dex Coffee's signature menu item, the Mocha Orchestra. The Mocha Orchestra is an innovative drink with smooth almond cream, bittersweet dark chocolate, and a milk chocolate-based espresso shot, and it was truly delicious. Initially, the smooth and rich cream fills your mouth, and the clean finish of the espresso shot leaves a long-lasting impression.
The cafe's interior, with its classic wood tones and retro vibe, makes it a perfect place for taking photos. Sipping coffee while listening to the flowing jazz music felt like a healing experience for both body and mind! If you're planning a trip to Seomyeon, be sure to visit Dex Coffee. I highly recommend it for its atmosphere and taste!
