Nabe Badaiken

Nabebadai Ken is a small izakaya in the printing-alley area near Chungmuro Station in Seoul, serving nabé alongside pasta, fried dishes, and salads. The nabé is boiled in-house, with a rich, clean broth and generous ingredients, and pasta can be ordered as well. The space is small, so solo diners can eat at the bar table and conversation stays quiet. Inside the Japanese-style exterior are warm lighting and a wooden bar counter.
