Umutgae Ilbeonji

Jeju-do


This one-woman bistro has fuss-free single dishes – perfect after climbing nearby Seongsan Ilchulbong. Each bowl of jjamppong (spicy seafood ramyeon) holds a bounty of seafood, with even more abalone in the haejangguk (hangover soup). Or choose beef bulgogi from the photo menu. Solo diners, sit at the bar, where there are complimentary phone chargers.

Look for the green awning.
