The Busan Metropolitan Government has published the "2026 Taste of Busan," a guidebook featuring the city's representative restaurants and food culture.
The annual guide showcases carefully selected restaurants along with stories about local ingredients and culinary traditions. This year's edition introduces 146 restaurants across Busan in four languages — Korean, English, Chinese and Japanese — to improve accessibility for foreign visitors.
Moving beyond a conventional restaurant listing, the guide has expanded into what it calls "ecosystem-type content" that highlights the background and cultural value behind each dish. The book also features 13 traditional local dishes, including Dongnae pajeon (green onion pancake), dwaeji gukbap (pork soup with rice), milmyeon (wheat noodles) and bokguk (puffer fish soup), emphasizing the city's culinary identity.
In addition, the guide includes "B-FOOD Recipe Season 3," which uses outstanding local food products, marking an effort to extend Busan's tourism content into the food industry.
