Always a wonderful place to get blowfish!

Classic original blowfish soup. Only in Busan over 30 years. Definitely plan to return.

There was a lot of delicious puffer fish.

This is the original pufferfish restaurant in Busan. It was made famous due to several high ranking political officials saying some rather bad things about some groups of people while eating here. Anyway, it seems scary to eat pufferfish because it's kind of poisonous and your tongue gets a little bit numb from eating it and you likely won't die but it's still an experience! I highly recommend trying it. There are a lot of private rooms to choose from as well.

THE original puffer fish restaurant in Busan. We went there on lunch time and a lot of older guys there as well to have puffer fish soup which is a good sign. Please, please, please order the fried puffer fish if you are planning to go. We ordered one soup to share between two people. They split in two in advance but it was still a lot and I couldn’t even finish. The side dishes are amazing as well. The staffs are all nice as well.
