The ginseng chicken soup served to a former president, a Seoul rite of passage.
Set in a sprawling hanok house steps from Gyeongbokgung Palace.
The whole young chicken is stuffed with glutinous rice, ginseng, jujube, and pumpkin seeds, then simmered in a milky broth.
Order the original or the black-chicken version.
Lines move fast thanks to the 400-seat capacity.
The late President Roh Moo-hyun was a famous regular at Tosokchon Samgyetang, which has operated in the same hanok near Gyeongbokgung since 1983.
