Sokssiwonhan Daegutang Main Branch 속씨원한대구탕 본점

Since 2002 this spot at the foot of Dalmaji-gil, near Mipo, has simmered cod into a clear soup rather than a red, chili-heavy one, and the upstairs dining room's windows face toward the Haeundae sea. The daegutang arrives in a hot earthenware pot with thick fillets in broth drawn from the bones and flesh; a few plain spoonfuls come first, then the table's chili paste turns it sharp. Almari rolls flying-fish roe and imitation crab in seaweed inside a thick omelet, the roe popping against soft egg.
