SeafoodModerateTourist Fishery Market

A 7-year-old crab specialist inside Sokcho Tourist & Fishery Market, famous for its signature hong-ge (red snow crab) lunchbox — whole crabs expertly broken down into easy-to-eat pieces in a portable box. The owner sources crabs from Sokcho boats that go out 3-4 days for higher-quality catch, and only uses crabs with 85%+ meat yield. The lunchbox format was invented here to solve the biggest tourist frustration with crab: difficult shell work.

Pro tip

The hong-ge dosirak (red crab lunchbox) is the signature — get the fresh-steamed version (활어) for the best experience. Add the bokkeumbap (fried rice with crab shell) for ₩2,000 to complete the meal. During the July-September fishing ban, the shop still operates using specially preserved stock. For leftovers, the owner recommends boiling crab shells into ramyeon broth at home — the base quality is good enough.

Dal-keun-han Hong-ge Do-si-rak⭐

Dal-keun-han Hong-ge Do-si-rak

달큰한 홍게도시락 (활어)

₩36,000

The signature item: 2-3 live red snow crabs (1kg) steamed fresh and expertly broken down into an easy-to-eat lunchbox. No shell-cracking struggle — all the meat is accessible. 50 min cooking time. The owner invented this format to make crab effortless for tourists.

Shellfish

Takes 50 minutes to prepare (steamed to order). Add bokkeumbap (+₩2,000) and wasabi mayo (+₩1,000) for the full experience. Cold crab after 3 hours in the fridge is also excellent — the meat becomes moist and bouncy.
