My visit to Sanhocho in Nonhyeon 🐟 · Watch on YouTube

I went to Sanhocho in Nonhyeon for sashimi and drinks as a second stop that evening. 🐟 The yellowtail was really fresh, but the crab innards pasta is what I would tell you not to skip.

🍽️ What I ordered: The sauce was thick and rich, clinging to the noodles rather than running straight off. Each lift brought the crab-innards sauce up with it. Going from the fresh sashimi to those richly coated noodles made ordering both worthwhile. 🦀 I ordered 대방어사시미 (yellowtail sashimi) and 꽃게내장파스타 (crab innards pasta) with soju and beer, and finished with 들기름아이스크림 (perilla oil ice cream).
👀 Visit impressions: The room had that relaxed street-stall feel even indoors, with blue tiles and lights beneath the sign. The restaurant's owner was kind, which made it an easy place to linger over a drink. 🐟
