(5 reviews)A well-known Taean eatery famous for — a regional crab-and-kimchi stew. originated as a way to use salted outer cabbage left from kimjang, simmered with crab-preserving sauces and jeotgal; today it’s usually made with kimchi and fresh flower crab, producing a bright, spicy and briny broth that highlights the cabbage rather than hiding it in doenjang. Similar to kkotgetang (flower-crab soup) but without soybean paste, it’s a distinctive Taean specialty worth trying.
