Ginseng chicken soup is well-known in Seoul🤤

#Seoul Itinerary

Located near Bukchon Hanok Village and Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul, "Tosokchon Ginseng Chicken Soup" was founded in 1983. It is a famous food store that not only tourists but also local Koreans will line up. Even I am visiting for the third time🤤

The entire building of Tosokchon Ginseng Chicken Soup is an antique Korean house!

The menu of Tusu Village Ginseng Chicken Soup has Chinese and English translations. In addition to the most basic ginseng chicken option, there is also black-bone chicken.

After ordering, ginseng wine will be served first. You can drink it directly or add it to ginseng chicken soup to enhance the flavor.

The Tusu Village Ginseng Chicken Soup is a little different from the ginseng chicken soup in other stores. It also contains pumpkin seeds, black sesame seeds, pine nuts, etc.

Ginseng chicken is filled with glutinous rice, red dates, ginseng, chestnuts, etc. The chicken is very tender and the glutinous rice is very tasty. The rice grains have a strong chicken soup flavor, while the Chinese medicine flavor is relatively light. Even those who are afraid of the smell of ginseng can eat it with confidence.

In the past, each table had two jars of pickled radish and kimchi as side dishes, which you could eat as much as you want, but now there is only a small bowl 🥹
In the past, they gave me ginseng tea, but now they gave me a bottle of water instead🤣
