Jeju Feature Part 3: The Food Tour
Open for business! Sliced abalone served next to Jeongbang Waterfall, thanks to a local haenyeo (woman diver).
Over the past few weeks, we saw Jeju’s fire festival and climbed South Korea’s highest peak. But now, it’s time to eat!
As a huge volcanic island, it makes sense that there’s a dearth of arable land on Jeju. But being an island also means that seafood has always been a staple of Jejanese cuisine. So to start our culinary exploration, let’s start at the beach… but one warning, food on Jeju doesn’t come cheap!
