Wonjo Sinchon Seolleongtang (원조신촌설렁탕)

Meogeultende’s reviewHighly recommended

“The suyuk and spicy offal soup are a treat worth trying once”

• Suyuk, small (boiled beef slices)BestOx head and tongue cuts, much better in quantity and quality
• Naejang Gomtang (beef offal soup)Bland but with a chili powder flavor, a unique broth
• Seolleongtang (ox bone soup)Strong MSG flavor in the style of Yeongdong Seolleongtang

Dining solo

Said suyuk is better ordered with a group

Atmosphere

Fluorescent lights, menu board and clock that give a North Korea feel

Would return

Said they really like this restaurant

Good for

A glass of soju with suyuk on a rainy day

Tips

• Rice comes already mixed into the soup, but you can ask for it separately
• Eat with a 50:50 salt and pepper mix, together with kimchi
• Suyuk loses flavor when it cools, so eat it while warm
