[Seoul / Sinbanghwa] Kkui Kkui Pig Village Jjukkumi, a famous restaurant near Gimpo Airport featuring spring chives and jjukkumi all in one.

There is a food that comes to mind when I come to Gimpo Airport.
It's the baby octopus.

From Janchi Janchi to Kkui Kkui Pig Village and Jjukkumi here, this is a neighborhood with many great jjukkumi restaurants.

Moreover, now april, spring chives and baby octopus
It couldn't be better to enjoy seasonal food.

I visited this house as soon as I returned from my trip to Jeju.

The blue sign stands out from a distance.
It feels just like an old, established neighborhood restaurant.

When you sit down, the side dishes are served first.
Red lettuce, seasoned bean sprouts, whole garlic, green chili peppers, ssamjang, and raw radish salad—it is a simple yet perfect combination that goes well with the octopus.

Looking at the menu, there is quite a variety, but the highlight of this place is ultimately the chive garnish.

Chives garnish 16,000 won, Chives pork belly 15,000 won.
Since both were domestic and one person in our group didn't particularly like octopus, we ordered one serving each of pork belly and octopus.

Chives Topping + Pork Belly with Chives (31,000)

It comes out in a partially cooked state.
Chives are piled up like a mountain on the stone slab,
The visual of baby octopus laid out underneath.

If you try eating the baby octopus separately before mixing it all together...
It feels like a lightly blanched raw fish salad.

It is not a rich and heavy flavor stir-fried in gochujang,
Spicy and sour
The texture of the octopus itself is preserved.

Next, a piece topped with chives,
The unique aroma of spring chives blends well with the baby octopus.

Flying fish roe rice ball (4,000 won)
Good to pick up and eat one by one while eating baby octopus
The flying fish roe rice ball feels like a reset in my mouth.
I also had a glass of makgeolli.

Finally, mix everything together like gochujang bulgogi.
It would be perfect if you just enjoyed it.
I'm supposed to have fried rice too.
I was too full to eat ㅠ

Seasonal spring chives and domestic baby octopus
Now is the timing to enjoy both at the same time.
It is a taste you won't regret stopping by and trying.
