TOSOKCHON
The famous sam-gye-tang (stuffed medicinal chicken soup) place in the hood. You'll see loads of people lined up to eat here but they're not that busy during off hours. This isn't my favorite samgyetang but a tourist staple.

Across from the famous Tosokchon chicken restaurant this is one of my favorite restaurants in the hood. I recommend ordering the 수제비 (su-jeh-bi) which will come with barley rice that you mix up with kimchi stems and a potato and anchovy based soup with flour dumpling like pieces in it. This dish is what farmers and peasants used to eat back in the day.

This is a chain restaurant that sells fried chicken and beer which is a big thing here. Cheap lager and juicy chicken. The bone-in original chicken is the best.

OLD FORTRESS WALL AT INWANG MOUNTAIN
Beautiful views of the city and the old fortress wall. If you study the map of the trails there are shortcuts up to the fortress wall from our neighborhood so don't be daunted by the inwangsan mountain trail.

Old historic neighborhood that has become a bit touristy but a great place to pick up souvenirs and maybe try some traditional teas. I recommend the jujube!
