Tongmyong Hotel Restaurant: Cuisine
Being right next to the sea, this restaurant boasts some of the most peculiar and interesting seafood around.
Seafood on the East Coast of North Korea is some of the best in North Korean cuisine.
As well as your typical side dishes such as kimchi, salad, and various meats and vegetables, you will also be rewarded with some bizarre and unique fish BBQ.
One of which includes a flaming whole fish that comes set on fire.
(Let the fire go out before you eat it!)
