About 한식

Korean cuisine (hansik) is built around balance — fermented sides (banchan), a steaming bowl of rice, and a main dish that changes with the season. Meals are served all at once rather than in courses, and sharing dishes at the table is the norm. The depth of flavor comes from slow-fermented pastes like doenjang (soybean) and gochujang (chili), which form the backbone of soups, stews, and marinades across the country.

About Seongbuk-Gu

Seongbuk-gu is home to Bukchon's quieter neighbour and Seoul's most literary neighbourhood, with independent bookshops and traditional restaurants tucked between old residential alleys. Ssangmun-dong's street food markets and the traditional teahouses of Samcheong-dong are highlights of this culturally rich but less-touristed district.

★★★★★Choong woo Kim9 months ago

One of the most popular dishes found in the Sungshin Women's University and Donam-dong area is Jjigae Baeksuk (Korean stew) from Jjigae Bonjeom. This restaurant specializes in chicken stew (dakdoritang), boasting a long history, and is beloved for its rich broth and tender chicken. But the pork kimchi stew and pollack stew are among the few I've tried. The kimchi stew is absolutely delicious! The broth is rich and flavorful, and the tofu is so rich, it's worth going all the way to Euljiro (Eunjujeong).

★★★★★chyap 20141 year ago

Arrived late at Seoul feeling cold and hungry. Since it was past 10pm, most restaurants nearby Arirang Hill Hotel were closed. Googled and saw this restaurant among a few that was still open, a short 10 mins walk from the hotel. Ordered the stewed chicken soup and omelette roll with rice and ramen. Side dishes consisting of Kimchi and bean sprouts were lightly marinated and tasty. The stewed soup was magic especially in this cold weather, and the chicken tender and soft, an indication that it was braised just nicely. Omelette row was good and complemented the chicken soup. The food portion was just right for 4 hungry adults. Everything cost just 40000 won!
