Our Visit

Today, we visited the Myeong-dong Dakhanmari Geoseong branch located in Jongno. The Myeong-dong Dak Hanmari Geoseong Branch is located in the Dak Hanmari Alley. Also, it is a famous place that has appeared on public broadcasting twice, in 2013 and 2015.


The interior is composed of standard tables, chairs that can store luggage, and wallpaper combined with beige and wood. The Myeongdong Dakhanmari Geoseong branch also has a second floor, which is much wider and has more seating than the first floor.

If you feel like the portion is not enough, you can order additional menu items besides one whole chicken!

The Myeong-dong Dakhanmari Geoseong branch is a popular restaurant among Japanese tourists, so there are separate instructions in Japanese on how to eat.

*One whole chicken noodle set 30,000 KRW
If you book through Creatrip, the menu is already set up like this. Wait until the fire is turned on and the broth is boiling.


Make a dipping sauce while waiting for it to boil. When you mix minced garlic, gochujang, mustard, sesame oil, soy sauce, and buchu, the sauce is complete. You can enhance the taste of the broth by adding the remaining chives and minced garlic into one whole chicken.


When it starts boiling, add rice cakes and chicken coop. And then, if you wait a little longer, the rice cake floats up. At that time, if you pick it up and eat it, it's chewy and the most delicious.



You can take out one or two dishes and eat them when they are cooked. Before eating chicken, poke a potato with chopsticks. If the potato goes in smoothly, both the potato and the chicken are fully cooked, so you can eat without worry.

Once you've eaten some of the contents inside, you can now add noodles. You can add noodles to give the feeling of eating chicken noodle soup.

When the noodles are cooked, it's delicious to eat them with the broth. You don't have to add anything and just enjoy the true taste of noodles!

If you're feeling a little bored, you can always go back to the sauce code we made earlier and enjoy it.

Finally, it's also delicious to eat with kimchi and kimchi broth.
