3.6
(4 reviews)A homestyle (hangover soup) specialist where the broth and ingredients are prepared with care. The soup contains seonji (coagulated blood), naejang (entrails) and crunchy kongnamul (bean sprouts), and is finished with a distinctive sauce of deulkkae-garu (perilla seed powder) blended into chili oil. The house-made son-dubu (handmade soft tofu) is used in a pork-simmered (tofu hotpot) that regulars love; and (seasoned entrails) are also on the menu.
