A recommended place for breakfast in Gangneung is a restaurant known for its delicious pollack and seaweed soup.

Kangmun Old Taekwang Restaurant

Pollack Seaweed Soup

On the way to Gangneung for business or travel,

It’s a place worth stopping by for breakfast.

The seaweed soup emanates a savory flavor,

Accompanied by the unsaturated fatty acids from the pollack.

And the neat side dishes.

Among them, the highlight was the grilled mackerel.

When you think of Kangmun Old Taekwang Restaurant, that’s what comes to mind.

Just a 5-minute drive from Gangmun Beach in Gangneung.

For breakfast, both locals and visitors come here,

Especially to taste the pollack seaweed soup.

I’ve tried the pollack soup before,

But I think this place does pollack seaweed soup better for breakfast.

The parking lot is almost like a palace,

The restaurant might seem small compared to the parking lot.

In front of Kangmun Old Taekwang Restaurant.

Open from 7:30 am to 3:00 pm daily, closed on Tuesdays.

Pollack Seaweed Soup, Fresh Raw Fish Soup, Pollack Soup, Silken Tofu Soup, Flounder Sashimi, Marsh Snail Soup, Fresh Raw Fish Stew, etc.

However, in most restaurants, the main dish is usually listed first, but…

At Kangmun Old Taekwang Restaurant, even though Pollack Seaweed Soup is the recommended breakfast menu, it’s listed in the middle, which might seem ironic.

It seems like a well-known breakfast spot for many on their way to work.

The number of customers seems to increase gradually.

I’ve been a regular for almost ten years now…

Just coming by once in a while… haha.

Celebrities and politicians such as Park Se-ri, Kwon Sung-dong, and Kim Jin-tae have visited.

It’s famous as a pollack seaweed soup restaurant in Gangneung, so I didn’t hesitate to order the pollack seaweed soup.

You can see pieces of pollack everywhere,

And the neatly arranged side dishes complement the seaweed soup.

The grilled mackerel is the main dish.

It used to taste a bit like curry before,

But now, the curry flavor has diminished significantly.

The chewy texture of the pollack,

As well as its unique oily taste, perfectly complements the seaweed soup.

I’m not usually a big breakfast eater,

But when it comes to breakfast in Gangneung,

I always make sure to eat here every time I come.

Especially, the grilled mackerel

Would make a great main dish.
