“The fish market in the Port of Daecheon”, which is close to Boryeong Daecheon seaside resort


If you don't want to spend an uninteresting summer vacation time, you must eat fresh sashimi and shellfish at night. It is like a sacred ceremony during a summer trip. Just as barbecues in winter! If you come to Daecheon seaside resort, you'd better buy seafood at the fish market in the Port of Daecheon, taking five minutes by car from the beach. It is more reasonable and convenient. Various seafood from shellfish, fish, king crab to lobster are cleaned and sold at reasonable price.

There are two places in the fish market in the Port of Daecheon; “The fish market in the Port of Daecheon”, which is located in the entrance of Daecheon port, and “Nocheon fish market” which takes five minutes from the left side of the building. The fish market in the Port of Daecheon would be more convenient since you can park your car in front of the building and go shopping in the cool indoors. If you want to buy dried fish, however, you should visit Nocheon fish market within five walking distance.

There are dozens of stores for seafood and dried fish on the first floor of fish market, and a restaurant on the second floor. Staff members cook various seafood bought from the stores on the first floor, and collect street tax. It is cheaper than other restaurants.

Most restaurants in Daecheon sell baked shellfish or sashimi. Although it is burdensome to buy ingredients at fish market, it is cheaper and delicious. It is much more cheaper than ordinary restaurants. It is convenient to cook in an accommodation since shellfish and fish are sliced and wrapped.

There are not only shellfish and fish caught from the west coast of South Korea, but also imported seafood like lobster and king crab. I can see the king crab with the size of a child's head. As I think how much lean meat it has, my mouth is watering. Boryeong is also famous for crabs.

The price or kind of seafood is almost the same from one shop to another. You can bargain for the price in any store you want. You may be annoyed by many merchants who try to take you to their stores, but you can choose one where gives a lot of seafood.

Because of the development of delivery system, you can enjoy regional products across the country in any place. But you may be concerned about time-consuming deliveries like shellfish in hot summer. So I chose many fresh shellfish and sashimi of the west coast to eat on the spot.

The amount is not limited, so you can select seafood as much as you want. I bought three chewy rock fishes for 20,000won and two kilograms of various clams for 20,000. If you eat these amount at raw fish restaurant at the seashore, it would cost over 100,000won. Sea Eel, flatfish, bass, red sea-bream and shellfish are in the season.

I received other seafood like shrimp, small octopus, clam, and seasonings like red chili-pepper paste with vinegar, soy sauce and mustard for free.

As I order sashimi, it is sliced and wrapped. The bone and the head of fish are wrapped separately for making fish stew.

While sashimi is prepared, I go out to a port. It is a good place to stroll for a while as it windy and cool. There is a mart next to the fish market in the Port of Daecheon, where sells a lot of ingredients like meat, snacks, beverages and vegetables. I bought some meat to eat for dinner.

Small fishes gather under shadow of a ship. It is the young of fishes. Some trashes are floating on the sea, but many people fish on the periphery of the port.

Since we shopped, we should have a taste. I had a great dinner with a plate of rock fish sashimi
and grilled pork. Rock fish was so sweet that it dissolved in the mouth without needing to be
chewed. I drank a lot of soju. Haha.

The night is too short for having fun. I had an alcohol party with streamed shellfish. Roasted shellfish is delicious, but streamed one is much more soft and tasty. You should steam clams, not bake!

Although I had a lot of food, I was still hungry. So I made ramen with the seafood served for free. I had a blast! There would no place to have fun without spending a lot of money. Some woman readers may wonder whether they must make a food in the resort. But I made every food, washed dish and recycled, although I am a man. So you don't say that again.
