Comments:
Visited Odarijip in Myeongdong, renowned for its marinated raw crab. This place is definitely acknowledged as a top dining spot in Seoul.
After searching for the best marinated crab in Australia and Singapore, found Odarijip's flavors unparalleled.
Exterior of restaurant, located on 2nd floor
Indoor seating
4 large marinated raw crabs and 4 marinated raw shrimp
Menu
Rice with seaweed and flying fish roe
We, a group of four, opted for the large sized crabs, resulting in an incredible meal, which left us decently full without being too much.
We also got marinated raw shrimp with the crabs and this was a super nice delight as well.
Side dishes
Steamed egg came with the meal
Side dishes like steamed egg and kimchi soup were okay and decent, but the marinated crab was the rea highlight / star of the show, especially with whe combination of crab with rice, seaweed, and fish roe = delicious.
Highly recommend Odarijip for its marinated crab and would definitely revisit on returning to Seoul.

Paired everything with some soju to cleanse the palate

Mixing the rice into the crab shell to get all of that goodness soaked in
