Experience the Essence of Korean Cuisine with Seolleongtang

On February 6, the Jongno Seolleongtang Shin-Okubo location will open, introducing a delectable culinary journey through one of Korea's traditional dishes: seolleongtang. This authentic restaurant specializes in serving this iconic soup, renowned for its rich flavors and nourishing qualities.

The Art of Seolleongtang Making

Seolleongtang is a traditional Korean soup made by simmering beef bones, meat, and innards for an extended period. At Jongno Seolleongtang, they take the time-honored approach to this dish to a new level, simmering it for 48 hours to achieve the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition. This long process not only extracts the maximum taste from the ingredients but also ensures that the soup is packed with protein and minerals, making it an ideal choice for recovering energy after a long day.

The soup has a mild and gentle flavor, appealing to a wide range of palates. It is typically enjoyed with rice or noodles, and the Shin-Okubo store offers a unique twist with vibrant five-color noodles made from natural ingredients. These colorful noodles—white (rice), pink (beet), black (black rice), yellow (pumpkin), and green (chives)—are a rare find in Japan and serve as a delightful, healthy addition to the seolleongtang experience.

A Diverse Menu to Satisfy Every Palate

In addition to their signature seolleongtang, the restaurant boasts an impressive selection of over 20 different soup varieties and more than 50 other dishes. Among these are delightful options from the 평안도 (Pyeongan-do) region like Obok Jeonbang, a comforting hot pot, and the Pork Belly Kimchi Stew, which beautifully balances the savory flavors of pork with the tanginess of kimchi. Share a hearty pot with family and friends, and you’ll find that the menu offers new flavors and dishes to discover on each visit.
