Description:

Dongdaemun is not the only place to dine on grilled fish. Grilled fish is a popular dish in Korea so there are a lot of grilled fish restaurants scattered around. This grilled fish restaurant has a very cute name "Mapo Gui Gui" (Mapo Grilled Grilled). Located in Mapo-gu district, this restaurant has received good reviews on its Mackerel grilled (Godeungo Gui/고등어구이), cooked over coal fire.

The grilled fish meal comes with "baekban"; defined by Naver dictionary as: 백반 - meal with a bowl of rice, soup, and side dishes. So you can have a very filling meal. Mackerel grilled with baekban in Mapo Gui Gui costs only 6,000 KRW. The restaurant opening hours is 10 AM - 10 PM and it is closed every Sunday (source 1, source 2)
