■ Eonyang Bulgogi Busangip (언양불고기 부산집)

　Bulgogi (soy-marinated sliced meat) is a popular Korean food enjoyed by Koreans and expats alike. However, eonyang bulgogi is a variation made by combining minced beef with oil, soy sauce, and other ingredients to form a patty which is then grilled. Differing from other forms of bulgogi, you can distinctly taste the meat, which pairs nicely with a bowl of soup. One of the best eonyang-style bulgogi restaurants is Eonyang Bulgogi Busangip, near Gwangalli Beach. They have spent 30 years perfecting the dish's texture and marinated garlic soy sauce. A complementary side dish for the eonyang bulgogi is a signature hot pot rice with chestnuts, mu-shrooms, abalone, and other specialty ingredients, called uwabap.
