Jagalchi Market, Busan

This place is a tourist attraction place. The seafood itself is reasonable. However, the other charges like cooking charges for each dish and per person charges jagged up the cost to mid $200 including the seafood cost. Nonetheless, my family and I had. Good time eating and enjoying the fresh seafood.

Very fun and lively place. Lots of people hustling to sell their seafood and a huge variety of seafood to choose from. Crab, abalone, eel, many types of other fish. At about 5pm when I visited, some of the stalls were already closing down so it’s maybe best to get here earlier in the day to see the market at its most busy.

A traditional seafood market in Busan. Not much to buy for tourists apart from dried goods which are not particularly cheap either. But definitely an interesting visit nonetheless. Recommend having a meal at the grilled fish restaurants along the market. Fish was really fresh. Best to come in a larger group to try the different varieties of fish.

Beware of stall 97, chose this stall through a blogger. Over-priced seafood. Lack of communication and transparency. Cannot choose how the seafood are to be cooked. Ordered the following: 1 fish - 10,000 won (later charged 20k won when they didn't serve the prawns.) 4 abalones - 10,000 won 2 oysters - 10,000 won 6 small prawns - 10,000 won 1 lobster - 880g 55,000 won Cooking fee - 30,000 won Taste was too salty to our liking. Lobster was ok. Prefer them to gut the fish before serving. Conclusion: Tourist Trap

There’s have outdoor and indoor market. I got some research before come here that you can order on the first floor and can get cooking service on the second floor. Some shop may have some deal to cooking shop. What’s the different? It is different about zoning of the table. Some table have a sea view. I bought the king crab on the shop number 183. The owner very nice. I compare the price on Abalone this shop is cheaper than another shop that I ask before. So I choose this shop😆 And this shop can bring you to the sea view table. I recommend. However, for my mistake I cannot sit there because my team going to another table already. So its very sadly. By the way is it very enjoy lunch!! For the cooking price is around 10,000 won per person(as I guess before).
