Handmade rice is made by breaking off well-aged flour dough with your hands and cooking it in boiling broth. The soft flavor that comes in, the chewy texture, and the rich broth make the cutlery impossible to stop until you look at the bottom of the bowl. The charm of handmade rice comes to mind even more in the cold winter! Here are five restaurants that attract regular customers with sujebi.

The characteristic of this place’s homemade rice is that it has a mild flavor, a medium flavor, and a cool flavor that is spicy. The soup, which contains shrimp, spiny lobster, and clams and has a rich texture like long kal noodles, is hotter than it looks. There is plenty of homemade rice that is thick and has a good chewy flavor.
