Byeokjae Seolleongtang 벽제한우 설렁탕

This is a restaurant specialising in a soup with a broth that has been boiled with bones for hours to make it extra tasty. They also sell Gomtang 곰탕 (another bone soup) which is what I ordered. Byeokjae (벽재) is the name of a region in Korea but is also the Korean word for crematorium. Quite interesting considering that it is bone soup. Anyway, carry on...

Nice enough!

The side dishes were tasty, especially the one of the right. The soy sauce on the bottom left is for dipping anything you want in (within reason).

Beef, leeks and bone soup, all you need now is...

tripe! Yum!


Can't get to the bottom of your bowl? Don't worry, do this!

Afterwards, you will get a small cup of fruit tea and it is worth sticking around for!


How to get there: Jonggak station, exit 1 (it might be closed due to construction so find another exit and then locate where exit 1 is from there). From exit 1, you can see a shopping centre with lots of cafes on the ground floor. Go to the second floor and find this place:

Entrance in the corner.
