After enjoying the boora drink, I struggled to open my eyes with a headache and a rumbling inside that seemed like it would break the day after. If you hold it tirelessly, you can't help but think of a hot soup dish. Soothe your hangover according to your taste, from the classic sharp soup of Haejang soup to places where you can relax your stomach with a clear, rich soup. From seolleungtang, where the heavy broth from Korean beef bones fills the empty stomach, monkfish soup with a refreshing flavor made with monkfish and various vegetables, to gomguk soup with a subtle scent of pork! Here are 5 of the best restaurants in Haejang that continue 100 years of tradition.
1. 'Osan Grandma's House' in Osan-dong, Osan, the same taste that has continued for four generations
“Osan Grandma's House†has been writing about 80 years of history since it began operating in 1943. The traditional method of carefully curing Korean beef bones and skulls in a cauldron for 8 hours or more has continued for the fourth generation. The signature menu, “Beef Head Seolleungtang,†is served by rolling plenty of meat such as head meat, sardine, beef tongue, and brisket in an immaculate broth. If you scoop out the rich broth and enjoy it, the heavy yet savory soup will fill your heart with heat. The meat, which is deeply soaked in broth through the process of steaming, has an excellent moist yet soft texture. Kakuteki, which has a refreshing flavor by adding red pepper powder water without pickling radish, plays a strong role as licorice that enhances the flavor of Seolleungtang.

“Sunhwa Sogomtangâ€, located at the entrance of Daegu Country Club, is a popular restaurant among golfers. Recently, the store, which had the feel of a long-established store, has been reconstructed, so you can enjoy your meal in a more pleasant atmosphere. The signature menu, “Gomdang,†is made by cooking beef head and beef bones over a long period of time to complete the rich flavor of the soup. It stands out for its moderate weight, with a mild flavor that is not greasy and has a mild flavor. The soup, which boasts a light yet refreshing flavor, is strangely addictive, and the more you eat it, the more you become fascinated by the flavor. The head meat and entrails, which are generously contained in the soup, were cut into thick slices to make use of the rich, crunchy texture.

The flavor of various ingredients is mixed into the soup, which is made with a cool flavor when the sauce is melted, so you can enjoy the deep flavor. It's nice to enjoy the harmony between the chewy skin and the tender inner flesh of the monkfish, which is plump. Fried rice, which is enjoyed by frying kimchi and seaweed powder on rice after tasting the monkfish soup, is also a delicacy.

“Gumgang Seolleungtang†has been competing for 55 years with only two menus, seolleungtang and beef, near Yukgai Market. The restaurant, which has a quaint feel that seems to show signs of time, has a nostalgic atmosphere. The seed soup that has been passed down over two generations has been carefully selected to maintain the same flavor. The signature menu, “Seolleungtang,†is a thick soup with sun-dried green onions, which adds a fragrant flavor. You can add salt, pepper, and green onions to the soup to taste, then roll up the rice and enjoy. Depending on the texture, the soft, crunchy head meat and savory broth blend to fill the filling. Note that the seed soup can be purchased separately using packaging and delivery services.

I like green onions, but I was able to eat green onions in a separate basket, and even though I don't usually eat all of the soup, I scraped and ate them very thoroughly without leaving a single drop.
