A friend called an impromptu meetup, so I headed out to Sadang. We went to a place called Yeongilman — apparently it is a famous spot in Sadang? Makhoe The most famous thing on this place’s menu is ma…
I’d been meaning to eat makguksu once before this winter was over, but I just didn’t have it in me to go all the way to Goseong in Gangwon-do. So instead I headed to Goseong Makguksu in Banghwa-don…
