Ulsan-style hagfish grilled in the market alley

Address

325 Beonyeong-ro, Jung-gu, Ulsan

An old hagfish house in the Jungang Market hagfish alley. Ulsan style means unseasoned raw hagfish stir-fried with vegetables, while the marinated grill carries a savoury doenjang note. Diners split on whether the salt grill or the spicy version wins. Portions run generous, and it suits a drink or two. The whole alley smells of grilling.
