수원삼계탕
Korea time, from recent reviews. Hours may differ on holidays.
A ginseng chicken soup (samgyetang) house of about 40 years, tucked in a lane near Paldalmun Gate and Yeongdong Market. Besides the classic bowl there is a spicy version (eolkeuni), one with seeds and grains, and lacquer-tree (ot) chicken; groups can share a whole chicken boiled with neungi mushrooms.
