They serve very authentic ginseng chicken.. The taste was there.. Love spiciness of the kimchi and pancake was full with "real seafood".. Haha.. Price range starting from 15,000 won. One ginseng chicken might just enough for sharing of two if you would like to order another pancake..😋

A cold rainy day and a spot of flu really has me wishing for this pot of wonder that is Tosokchon's famous ginseng chicken soup which I had the pleasure of having a while back. It's evenly balanced on the ginseng taste, enough to make its presence known while not being overpowering like many other samgyetang. The chicken is juicy and decently meaty, and the sticky rice hidden within the chicken just completes this dish like how a good red completes a night. Well, a man can reminisce and dream...

Famed ginseng chicken in Seoul in a traditional hanok, pretty near the palaces. No idea why we ordered the roasted chicken but anyway the samgyetang was good. A small glass of ginseng liquor on the side, we poured the entire thing into the samgyetang which made it a bit sweeter and much more fragrant. The samgyetang was served with pumpkin seeds, scallion etc. nuts were used which is a little different from usual. And the chicken was so tender! The gluttinous rice was my favourite. Seafood pancake was a bit like our caitaokuay lol but pretty good, crispy outside. We went really early 10+/11? So we didn't have to queue!

No visit to Seoul is complete without visiting the popular ginseng chicken!

Having read a lot of blogs reviewing about the ginseng chicken soup here, I've slid it into our itinerary. Even at 2pm, the queue was long, with both locals and tourists that we decided it must not miss out on this. Strong flavorful and hearty ginseng soup, with an extra kick if you add in the ginseng shot that comes with the soup. It also comes with black chicken version, which tasted pretty similar, but is supposedly more nutritious. Definitely a must try when you're in Seoul!
