[KOREA] DONGDAEMUN FAMOUS CHICKEN SOUP

My friend, Zoey, always tell us about delicious Chicken soup in Dongdaemun. Personally I'm not into soup person, i always prefet junk food, oily, fried chicken. But there was one day, I finally followed here there because i was brainwashed by here. We passed small alley with all restaurants, i just WOW, and I thought I must be very sorry if I never listen to here, because it is HEAVEN BABY! 

I confused all restaurants were fullfilled by people having their dinner, and finally we stopped and entered a restaurant and it was crowded! let get some soup!!!

WHOLE CHICKEN SOUP

 ₩9500 / PAX

super big whole chicken for 3

the waiter cuts chicken into small pieces

wait until it well-boiled

eat it with onion, spring onion, and special brown liquidy sauce

put some chilli in if you love spicy

* for me it not as spicy as it look

After i'm done with this crazy chicken bowl, the waiter gave us big plate of noodle, it was so yummy but my tummy felt like gonna exploding!!!

Well, I concluded that I have to trust my friend more, because her eating flavour is incredible.
