Spicy pork-bone braise with octopus and pollock roe by Nowon Station

Self-paid. The blogger paid for this visit.

A 24-hour gamjatang restaurant a minute from Nowon Station, serving a spicy braise of pork bones, octopus, squid and pollock roe developed with chef Kang Leo. The heat sits around Shin Ramyun level, and a pot of broth comes free on the side.

감칠맛이 터지는데 과하지 않고 바다향이 은은하게 뼈고기와 어우러지는 양념이 이곳의 매력이었습니다.
The sauce bursts with flavor without being heavy, and a faint taste of the sea goes beautifully with the pork.
