Hidden Gem for Local Cuisine at Hamdeok Beach
Hamdeok Beach is known for its local delicacies, and one standout recommendation from locals is a must-try restaurant for fish stew.
The owner of our accommodation, who introduced us to this local favorite, specifically requested that we keep it a secret. However, I can't help but share this hidden gem with you.

2. Parking is available at the public parking lot.
Upon arriving at Seasonal Table Hamdeok, as the owner had whispered, we were greeted by stunning views through the large glass windows.
The breathtaking scenery explained why locals often choose to dine here, especially those seated by the windows.
Photos of celebrities who have visited this local favorite adorn the walls, hinting at the delicious menu options they enjoyed.
Hygienic disposable aprons are conveniently available, essential for enjoying the flavorful hairtail stew without worrying about mess.
High chairs are also plentiful, making it easy for families with children to dine comfortably.
Each table is equipped with the latest tablets for convenient, contactless ordering, making the ordering system trendy and simple.
3. A View of the Expansive Sea
The set meal that the owner praised began to fill our table, with neatly arranged side dishes that whetted our appetites.
The hairtail is prepared with a secret seasoning and radish, a unique cooking method that requires careful temperature control to avoid toughening the fish.
The boneless hairtail comes out perfectly cooked, allowing you to eat it easily with a spoon.
However, be cautious as the fish can be very hot; it's best to let it cool slightly on a side plate before taking a bite.
A highly recommended combination is to scoop up the seasoned broth with the fish and enjoy it together in one bite.
4. Moist Boneless Hairtail Stew and Braised Radish
One advantage is that you won’t need to pick out bones, and the braised radish is so tender that it falls apart with just a touch of chopsticks.
Be careful, as the radish retains heat, and biting into it without letting it cool could burn your palate.
Don’t miss out on the refreshing fruit-based broth combined with seasonal seafood, a delightful summer dish that I had to try.
5. Refreshing Mulhoe (Cold Raw Fish Soup)
To fully enjoy the flavors, mix everything well to ensure the seafood and broth combine perfectly.
I poured the rich stew broth over rice, and it paired wonderfully with a savory corn salad.
Even when full, I found myself wanting more. My friend remarked that with the special sauce, they could eat it every day without getting tired of it.
Stir-fried fish cakes were easy to pick up with chopsticks, and the sweetness of the carrots added a nice touch.
Seaweed was stir-fried in sesame oil, eliminating any fishy smell, and when enjoyed atop the braised rice, it enhanced both the texture and flavor.
The corn salad, mixed with mayonnaise and sweet sauce, was a hit with the kids, balancing out the spiciness perfectly.
We also tried grilled hairtail, seasoned with coarse sea salt and expertly grilled, showcasing the owner's culinary expertise.
6. Perfectly Grilled Hairtail
The staff quickly deboned the fish using a spoon, making the dining experience feel warm and welcoming.
However, be cautious as there may still be small bones near the fins or tail.
After confirming the tender flesh visually, dipping it in sauce made for a safe and delicious experience.
Now I understand why the owner asked us not to spread the word. I highly recommend piling the fish into a single bite for the ultimate experience.
After a leisurely meal, we enjoyed the stunning sunset at Hamdeok Beach, a perfect moment that will linger as a cherished secret.
