Izakaya bar Hwawol in Magok! I always passed by in front of the shop and kept thinking I should come, I should come, and this time I finally visited!

First of all, the interior is generally clean and comfortable, and the table spacing is roomy so it didn't feel uncomfortable. There were a moderate number of customers, so it wasn't too noisy—just the usual level of bar noise.

And this was the most shocking part: the place has been open for at least four years, but the kitchen was unbelievably clean; the ductwork looked like it belonged to a brand-new restaurant. Because of that, I felt more confident about the food and could enjoy the dishes with peace of mind!

For food, I tried the seafood tomato stew (added pasta) and ordered fries as a side. The stew got richer the more it simmered, so it was very tasty, and the fries—no lie—were the best fries I've ever had. Fries are just fries, so I had no expectations, but whatever they did to them made them insanely delicious. If you visit, definitely try them.....it's crazy, seriously........

Overall, the place is clean, the food is good, and it's a nice spot to visit when you want to quietly have a drink. ^_^b
