Food restaurants that bring New Year's blessings
There is one rice cake shop in every town, and every year at this time of year, customers come to buy mochi from the mochi soup. The rice cake soup eaten on New Year's Day has the same meaning of starting the year clean as white, and it also contains the meaning of
longevity and wealth. In
addition to rice cake soup, there are a variety of foods that are meant to pray for good fortune for those who eat this way. Today , the SNS Taste Appraisal Group has prepared 5 food restaurants that sing “good fortune†for the Lunar New Year.
1. From the name to the lucky pufferfish, “Manseong Bok Jipâ€
“Pufferfish†is a unique fish that inflates its body in a ridiculous way
when it feels threatened. It is famous as an ingredient that is difficult to ingest
due to its deadly poison, but it is loved by many people for its flavor proportional to its risk
. In Egypt, a purse made of pufferfish skin is also a symbol of good luck. “Manseong Bok Restaurantâ€, located within Tongyeong Seoho Market, is a restaurant that is recognized by merchants in nearby markets. Jolbok soup and
jolbok spicy soup, which are freshly prepared with geography, are delicious, but on weekends when crowds are crowded, they only sell jolbok guk. Tasty Tongyeong-style side dishes such as oyster sauce and anchovy sashimi are also delicacies. The pufferfish soup,
which is cooked with plenty of well-prepared drumfish, butterbur, and bean sprouts, has an excellent refreshing soup flavor, but you can also enjoy it spicy with minced condiments, so you can eat whatever you like.
2. “Stone bear†is an octopus that is said to have all the blessings just right
In the Gyeongsang-do region, octopus is a symbol of good luck, “attracting all good fortune with its
eight legs.†It has a chewy
texture and goes well with any dish. There are many types of octopus, but I recommend the stone octopus, which is smaller but has a much
more savory flavor. Located in Apgujeong, Dolgomne is a
restaurant where you can enjoy fresh stone octopus. The signature dish, the stone octopus tassam, is a dish that is eaten wrapped with dried octopus sashimi or
tot. The soft, chewy stone octopus in the mouth blends
well with the fun texture that pops, and the scent of the sea spreads throughout the mouth. Octopus contains vitamin E and
niacin, and is said to be good for dieting and preventing aging, so it's more than two birds with one stone.
3. Gung, a gyoza made with good fortune
Dumplings made with various types of beef have the meaning of “eating with good fortune,†so every year during the Lunar New Year, many restaurants enjoy “mochi dumpling soup†by making gyoza in rice cake soup. Located in Insadong, 'Gung' has a 75-year tradition
and is a restaurant famous for its unique dumplings and steamed rice cake soup. Jang Jeong's
fist dumplings were filled with tofu , bean sprouts , Chinese cabbage filling, and chives, and made good use of the texture with homemade dumpling sauce. Although it has a price range, it captivates people's tastes with its luxurious taste
without being irritating. In addition to gyoza, they also offer a variety of exquisite dishes, such as rice crackers and bosam set meals, which are great for family gatherings.

4. Blessings are endless! Pumpkin, 'Dongpumpa duck'
A pumpkin has the meaning of “good fortune comes in vines.†It has just the right amount of sugar for the fluffy texture of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and is often used as an auxiliary ingredient
to add richness to dishes. “Dong Pumpkin
Duck â€, located in Pocheon, offers a dish made by filling a slightly sweeter whole pumpkin with smoked duck that has been stripped of fat and baked in the oven one
more time. If you eat sweet pumpkin, which is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and light duck meat together, the
flavor is excellent. You can dip duck meat in the mustard sauce that comes with it, but you can also enjoy it with chives
and pickled sesame leaves. The duck perilla soup served as the last course has a cool flavor and is a great way
to finish off the filling.
5. Red beans that bring health and good fortune, “chrysanthemums next to the fenceâ€
Since ancient times, adzuki beans, famous as foods that ward off bad luck and bring health and good fortune, have water-soluble anthocyanin pigments that help
prevent aging by removing harmful oxygen from the body. It has a mild sweetness and is also a delicacy enjoyed
with shaved beans in the summer and red bean soup in the winter. “Chrysanthemum Flower by the Fence †is a
Korean-style dessert cafe that
sells all of our mochi , sweets, coffee, and tea. Among them, sweet bean paste and shaved ice made from domestic adzuki beans are the most popular. There are only four types of red bean paste, from shaman bean paste
without added sugar to sweet pumpkin zanju where you can get double the good fortune. Chestnut jujube
shaved ice is a crunchy jujube chips and chestnuts blended well with adzuki beans, making it a great wellness delicacy to enjoy even in winter.
really delicious haha.. Shaved beans, red bean soup… A dessert that really suits
Korean tastes ♡
