“Mackerel†is known as the representative of blue-backed fish. Mackerel, which has an attractive light yet savory flavor, contains a large amount of ingredients such as omega-3 fatty acids, DHA, and EPA, so it is a fish with excellent taste as well as nutritional value. Mackerel, which was in season with fall, is plumper and has a richer flavor, making it the most delicious to eat now. Starting with steamed mackerel in kimchi mixed with a well-cooked marmalade seasoning, grilled mackerel that is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and even a simple but hearty mackerel bowl that can be used for a hearty meal! Here are 5 of the best mackerel restaurants.

“Rumored restaurants†exude a strong sense of longevity, as if showing the passage of time. The signature menu, “Boiled mackerel with white rice,†offers a rich menu of jelly-boiled mackerel, gobong rice, and side dishes and soup that change every day. Using only living things, mackerel has an appealing, light flavor without being fishy. I recommend wrapping the mackerel fillets in ripe jelly paper and putting them on top of white rice.
