Jin Okwha Grandmother Chicken 진옥화할매 닭한마리

Curious as to how you can beat the heat in Korea?

Koreans traditionally eat 삼계탕(samgyetang: chicken soup with ginseng) to recharge their energy for the hot summer.

There are lots of restaurants at ‘Mokjagolmok’(Eatery alley) in Dongdaemun.
The most famous one is ‘진옥화 할매 닭한마리’ that is a 30-year-old restaurant located near 평화시장(Pyounghwa Market).
It consists of one main dish, 'DarkHanMari', for two people(20,000 won) and various 'Sari' such as noodles, rice cakes, potatoes, etc

After eating the main dish, you can enjoy eating spicy 칼국수(Kalkuksu or noodles) and 볶음밥(fried rice) by mixing up with chicken soup.

Our Korean ancestors said "We should fight fire with fire."

So let's go have Samgyetang at this vintage old restaurant.
