Mild, meaty pork-bone soup at a Seongsu queue favorite

Self-paid. The blogger paid for this visit.

A long-running gamjatang restaurant near Seongsu Station whose queue moves faster than it looks. Order the single-serving pork-bone soup with soft dried cabbage leaves, then mix in your rice along with the meat hiding at the bottom of the pot.

반대로 순한 맛을 선호하거나 매운 것을 잘 먹지 못하는 외국인에게는 적극 추천할만하다고 생각합니다.
If you prefer mild food or cannot handle much spice, I would strongly recommend it.
