3.8
(65 reviews)A three-generation, 45-year-old family-run spot in Daejeon known for local comfort dishes like duruchigi and kalguksu. Their signature is ojingeo duruchigi — thickly sliced squid blanched in a rich anchovy broth, then stir-fried with gochugaru and scallions into a fiery, chewy dish. Diners often finish by adding kalguksu noodles to the leftover sauce, which soaks up the spicy, umami-rich seasoning.
