Namhae Dalin Hoejip

Namhae Dalin Hoetjip is a raw-fish restaurant on the road from Goejeong to Dongju University in Busan. Ordering hoe plus dombaekban brings a one-person plate of aged striped beakfish, rockfish (ureok), and flounder hoe, followed by steamed fish head and clear jiri. A 5 p.m. reservation had basic side dishes ready, with soy sauce and cho-gochujang in the rice-bowl lid, and about five cars can park in front of the building. The aged hoe has a dry, sponge-like texture, so it does not suit those looking for the chewiness of live-fish hoe.
