October 2026 · Yeosu, South Korea
We took a short taxi ride to Romantic Pocha Street with our two kids. I’d eaten at Dolmuneo Sanghoe about five years earlier, tried other places in the meantime, and still found myself coming back for the same octopus pan. This time the indoor seating mattered as much as the food.
What comes on the hot plate
Dolmuneo samhap (돌문어삼합) was a shared pan of octopus, pork belly, abalone, shrimp and scallops with mustard-leaf kimchi. The staff cooked it and cut the octopus on our visit. I liked the tang from the kimchi against the rich pork. I served the kids less-seasoned pieces first and kept their hands away from the hot plate.
Order the extras after the octopus
We added fried rice to the pan and shared a seafood ramyeon at the end. The kids found the rice easier to eat than the octopus. With four of us, that was plenty. Start with the pan and decide about the extras once you see the portion.
Taxi in, walk out
We paid about ₩4,000 for our short taxi ride. That was our fare from nearby. The street was busy and loud in the evening, so I would go straight to the restaurant with children and save the waterfront for afterward. We walked over to the red Hamel Lighthouse after dinner.
