[Guri Restaurant] When You Need Energy: Guri Eel Rice Bowl

Hello :)

JW Jeongwon Plastic Surgery

repays you with results.

We went to eat eel to boost our energy on a chilly day and with our bodies feeling sluggish from COVID.

This place is called “Umigwan” in Guri,

and it seems to be famous for its eel rice bowl.

Since it has also appeared on TV several times,

we had even higher expectations.

The interior felt like a typical home.

You have to take off your shoes before entering,

and it felt like a renovated house,

with the kitchen and rooms separated.

It is said to operate by reservation,

but although we did not make a reservation, we were still able to be shown to a seat.

The interior is unique, right?

It seems the restaurant has been operating since 1954.

There are three eel menu items in total.

There are eel set meals, eel rice bowls, and jange-tang,

but they said the jange-tang was sold out.

In addition, there are river fish spicy stew, pancakes,

fried shrimp, and more.

Wine was also available.

We ordered the regular and special eel rice bowls.

Since they start cooking after taking the order,

it took a little while for the food to come out.

We waited about 15 to 20 minutes.

The food is served neatly as a full table setting

on a single tray.

The special and regular versions are distinguished by the color of the lid.

The seasoned grilled eel is neatly placed

on top of fluffy rice.

It comes with three side dishes,

shredded perilla leaves, wasabi,

steamed egg custard, and beef bone soup.

It looks delicious.

We were told to put the perilla leaves and wasabi on top and mix it before eating,

but I just added them separately and ate it that way.

The seasoning was just right, and the eel tasted very good.

However, the amount of rice was very small,

and even after finishing the whole bowl, I did not feel full.

The soup that came with it was a bit salty.

Still, it was rich and had a nice aroma.

Overall, it was a neat and tasty

eel rice bowl, but the small amount of rice

was a little disappointing.

Please keep this in mind if you visit.

That concludes my honest review of Umigwan,

a famous eel rice bowl restaurant in Guri.
