Its soft acidity asks for particular food: savoury pancakes, tofu, seafood, anything that is eaten slowly and shared. Koreans associate it with rainy days. In Paris it appears on menus far less often than soju, which is precisely what makes a list like this useful. The addresses below actually serve it, as opposed to keeping one forgotten bottle in the fridge. Worth knowing: makgeolli is a living drink and freshness matters, and the places that take it seriously are usually happy to talk about it if you ask.
