Hello :)
JW Garden Plastic Surgery,
offers results that speak for themselves.
This week started with a cold wave from Monday,
and they say the freezing temperatures will continue
through the weekend too!
Everyone, please be careful of colds and COVID~
The restaurant I’m introducing today is perfect for cold weather!
It’s samgyetang, with piping hot broth and excellent nutrition.
This post is also about a place I visited around last May,
when social distancing was at Level 1.

On a warm spring day when it had been raining, I was craving something warm like samgyetang, so I searched for a place.
I found a place famous for nurungji samgyetang,
so I went to check it out.

When I got there, there were so many samgyetang and baeksuk restaurants that it could almost be called a chicken soup street.
I later looked it up and found that this area is called Dakjukchon Folk Village~
It seems like a good place to stop by when driving around Namhansanseong,

The place we went to that day was
Choueon House.
It’s said to be famous for its nurungji samgyetang.

It has also been featured on many broadcasts.

A neat interior.
We didn’t make a reservation.
We were guided to the second floor.

Chicken dishes, duck dishes, and side dishes.
We ordered the nurungji samgyetang.
We also wanted to try the potato pancake and acorn jelly,
but we held back because it seemed like too much for two people.

It says they have studied only baeksuk for a long time?
Our anticipation was through the roof.

Cubed radish kimchi, kimchi, seasoned chili doenjang salad
and salt for dipping the meat.
The side dishes were prepared with just the things we would want to eat.
They weren’t too salty or spicy, and they were just right.

Today’s main dish.
Nurungji samgyetang.
The broth looks very rich.
![[Namhansanseong Restaurant] When You Need a Nutritional Boost, Replenish Yourself with Samgyetang at Choueon House image 11](https://pub-9f2bb3498faf4d1d8714b41df24753e3.r2.dev/content/clinics/archive/9b2f38d7eb/naver_blog/jwbeauty5415114/assets/by_hash/f18e7b72c5d73e1fbefa5f4263d613ab57bc8eb0023e5afd0564f4cf9b217638.jpg)
It wasn’t a bland samgyetang at all, but rather had a rich,
nutty broth that was very tasty.

As the name suggests, it also includes nurungji.
We ate the chicken and even the nurungji, finishing a bowl cleanly.
A place I want to visit again once COVID is over,
this was an honest review of Choueon House.
