Shortly before 8 on a Saturday evening, after leaving [Kalmat Hoetjip](/en/blog/jangjeon-kalmat-hoetjip-20261010/) and walking in search of a next stop, we saw oysters at this place. Surprised they were already out, we went in and ordered Tongyeong raw oysters and cockles.

When we ordered, the owner came out in person and asked us to understand that the oysters were still small. The owner also told us about the norovirus risk. We said that we knew and that it was fine.

The oysters were small but tasty. The owner also kept explaining that the cockles were quite small because their season was ending.

Despite the owner's worries, all of us ate well. When winter deepens and the oysters grow, I would like to come back for them.
