Tucked near the Gyeongdo ferry pier, Gyeongdo Hoegwan has a relaxed seaside atmosphere and a menu built around seasonal local seafood. From May–August they serve ; April–December features (conger eel); and January–March bring shabu-shabu (razor clam). Their signature arrives with finely scored pike-conger and a clear broth made from the eel bones with ginseng, mushrooms and jujube — the gently poached eel is silky and mild. After shabu, many locals finish the meal with eojuk: rice and vegetables simmered in the remaining broth with ground peanuts for a rich, savory porridge.
