해동해물탕 Haedong Haemultang 海東海鮮鍋 @Busan, South Korea

IMG_2336I have been wanting to check out this restaurant, after reading about it in the guidebook, and it was just around the corner of our hotel!

According to the guidebook, the owner of 해동해물탕 Haedong Haemultang 海東海鮮鍋 goes to 자갈치시장 Jagalchi Market 札嘎其市場 every morning to select the freshest seafood for the day, and the prices here are very reasonable.

So after a tiring day at walking around Busan, we decided that a hot steaming seafood pot for dinner it shall be!

The menu came with Chinese, English and Japanese translation, so I guess this must be a popular place with tourists too.

Today was a Saturday, and also the first day of Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival, so we figured that it was better to be earlier than late.
