Doo-uh Mari

Two childhood friends born in 1983 grill eel in the quiet alleyway of an apartment complex in Gangnam. Unlike other grill houses, Doo-uh Mari looks and feels like a laid-back cafe. The two young owners traveled down south with the sole plan of trying the local eel, and then ended up consulting with numerous restaurants to concoct their own menu. They now have their own supplier, and have discovered a knack for grilling eel speedily over charcoal, with a generous sprinkling of salt to give it a clean taste. Pair the grilled fish with grilled bellflower root (18,000 won) and you will discover a taste like none other. Thumbs-up to the combination.
