Foods from Jeju mainly made with saltwater fish, vegetables, and seaweed, and are usually seasoned with soybean paste. The number of dishes set on a table is small. The taste of the food is generally a bit salty, probably because foods are easily spoiled due to the warm temperature.

Favorite Dish: Kalchi Kui - broiled hair-tail fish - long silver colored fish. Very tender taste.

Hwae (raw fish, squid, lobster) - fresh thin slices of delicate fish. Even Koreans from the mainland value local fresh fish; once you are on Jeju you must taste it.

Yangnyom kalbi - marinated pork or beef ribs grilled on charcoal. Tender meat slices are grilled right on the table on a pot grill using charcoal.

We were hungry after a day at the beach. We were looking for some seafood with a relaxing ambiance. We found it at the Suites Hotel after taking a look at what they had set up on the veranda.

Favorite Dish: The Shabu Shabu was the freshest I had ever tasted!

Hubby and I were just wandering about in the little town in Jeju (Namjeju-gun) and looking for a place to eat when we stumbled into this little joint. We have this unwritten rule that if a joint was crammed with locals, the food must be good and cheap. We went in . Afterall, we did see a lot of happy locals inside, feasting away, sitting barefoot and cross-legged.

Sometimes, a good phrase book and lots of animated gestures can get you a good meal. I can vouch for it since this happened to me in Jeju, Korea. Since I spoke pidgin Korean, it took both of these to get a delicious BBQ pork meal from a patient restaurateur. Other than bearing with my limited vocab, the restaurateur also taught us how to wrap a fragrant leaf together with condiments and BBQ pork before eating. Nice authentic experience that spoke volumes about the warmth of Koreans. And yes, the food was cheap, it must have cost us about US$12 for this fantastic meal and hospitality...

Favorite Dish: Well, I guess it has to be the "brack wee wee" . Wondering what it is? I did too, for about a while to understand that it was none other than pork from a black-skinned piggy! I nodded with enthusiasm and got the 'best' cuts in the house - whole pices of fat laced into porky joints. Despite the fact that I was a health freak, I ate everything, black skin and all to show my gratitude. Best thing I ever tasted, the pork was chewy yet succulent..
