8 delicious restaurants in Seoul chosen by Korean locals, delicious and affordable

There are many reasons to travel to Korea, including its long history, beautiful natural scenery, and various shopping malls. But what I like most is the food. Today, I will introduce 8 restaurants that are the favorites of locals in Seoul. Maybe there are no tempting cold noodles in Korean dramas, nor kimchi soup everywhere, but they are the choices of ordinary Koreans who are very down-to-earth.

1. The Man Who Gave Pigs/Hongdae



The first one I want to introduce is "The Man Who Gives Pig ()" in Hongdae. The store uses high-quality pork directly from Jeju Island. It is grilled over charcoal before serving, which preserves the pork juice to a great extent and tastes better. The popular dish in the store is the "Pork Chop + Pork Belly with Skin Set", which is absolutely great roast pork with a secret sauce. The key is that the price is not expensive and the cost-effectiveness is high, which is why locals love to come here.

Address: 366-2, Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul

2. Wang Feijia Main Store/Myeongdong



Next, I will introduce the "Princess's House Main Store" in Myeongdong. Although this store is in Myeongdong, it is also a very cost-effective barbecue restaurant. In addition to locals, there are also many tourists coming here.

In the store, you can taste Korean barbecue such as Korean beef ribs and pork belly. Among them, the most eye-catching thing in the store is the "pork chop set meal" that can be eaten for lunch. The roasted pork chop is fat but not greasy, and the mouth-watering taste is moderately salty. It makes people unable to stop eating. And with rice and various side dishes, a full meal is not a problem. This is a place where many locals go for lunch. Sit down with the locals for a delicious lunch. Xiaoyu specially reminds that the restaurant is on the 2nd floor, don't walk past it.

Address: 26 2F, Myeongdong 8Ga Street, Jung-gu, Seoul

3. Chicken Real Food/Namdaemun



"Jijinmi" is a chicken soup specialty store founded in 1962. The main chicken soup uses a whole young chicken, which is tender and has no peculiar smell. The chicken soup is served without any seasoning, and you can add salt and pepper as needed.

It is recommended to try the special soy sauce dipping sauce with chopped green onions and eat it with rice. This store is open from 8 am to the evening (until it is sold out on the day), and the refreshing soup is very suitable for breakfast, so if you live nearby, how about going for breakfast?

Address: 22-20 Namdaemun Market Street, Jung-gu, Seoul

4. DASARANG Fried Chicken Sinchon Direct Store/Sinchon



Next, we will introduce "DASARANG Fried Chicken" located in Sinchon, a student street in Seoul. This shop is a fried chicken shop just like its name. The fried chicken nuggets and sweet and spicy sauce in the shop are delicious. This shop has dishes that can be ordered individually, and you can also order 2 to 4 flavors of set meals. The chicken portion is quite large, even if there are many people, you can still eat enough. Since there is fried chicken, how can there be no beer, "It's snowing, how can there be no fried chicken and beer - Cheon Song Yi".

Address: 52-22, Cangcheon-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul

5. Niu Xin Haochi Sinchon Branch



"Niu Xin Haochi" is a popular food restaurant that was reported by Korean TV and magazine media shortly after its opening. The signature dish is stewed beef ribs, which are available in spicy and cream. It is a good place for couples to eat and girls to get together. It is delicious and affordable, and it is close to the commercial district with convenient transportation.

Address: 57-39, Cangcheon-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul

6. BBQ restaurant/Hongdae entrance




Next, let's introduce the "BBQ restaurant" at the entrance of Hongdae, a popular shopping district. This is an old restaurant that has been very popular since its opening. The signature dish is "grilled beef ribs", which are grilled over charcoal and have a fragrant aroma that makes people's appetite increase.

In addition to being loved by locals, Korean artists occasionally come to eat. The menu only has beef, pork, rice and cold noodles. The round tables and chairs in the store are very down-to-earth, and you can enjoy the flavor of an authentic Korean BBQ restaurant here.

Address: 351-18, Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul

7. Hong Garlic Spicy Rice Cake & Seaweed Rice Roll/Hongdae Entrance




Next, we will introduce the "Garlic Spicy Rice Cake & Seaweed Rice Roll" which is also at the entrance of Hongdae. The sweet and spicy seasoning, fried garlic and elastic rice cake make people feel that their taste buds are dancing. In Korea, rice cakes are often sold in large quantities at roadside stalls. The rice cakes here are large in size and suitable for several people to eat together. In addition to rice cakes, the store also has tuna rice rolls with cream cheese, which is also a specialty

Address: 355-25, Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul

8. Tosokchon Ginseng Chicken Soup/Gyeongbokgung Palace




The last place I want to introduce is the "Tosuchon Ginseng Chicken Soup" restaurant in Gyeongbokgung Palace. This is Xiaoyu's favorite, and I have introduced it in other articles before. "Ginseng Chicken Soup" is a Korean dish made by stewing chicken, ginseng and glutinous rice together. It is one of the traditional Korean medicinal dishes.

The ginseng chicken soup in this restaurant has a strong flavor, and you can also eat a lot of ginseng, which is good for the body. This restaurant is designed as a traditional Korean restaurant. Most diners sit on the wooden floor with floor heating. You can taste authentic Korean traditional cuisine in a traditional Korean atmosphere. Isn't this one of the purposes of going to Korea?
