(20 reviews)Located in Mokpo's Okam-dong, Indongju Maeul is a down-to-earth Namdo restaurant known for its indongcho-brewed indongju makgeolli and its (fermented skate) offerings. The signature Indongju Maeul set brings together with ganjang kkotgejang (soy-marinated crab) and saewoojang (marinated shrimp); the here is fermented about 15 days, milder than typical styles so even newcomers can try it and appreciate its chewy, springy texture. The soy-marinated crab and shrimp served alongside are also crowd-pleasers.
