Like winter, chilly weather continues every day. The streets are sparkling with a year-end atmosphere. I look back on how I spent the year by closing my collar and taking quick steps. Reflecting on whether he tried to keep the plans he made earlier this year, what achievements or changes he made this year, and his initial intention. Then, as always, there comes a moment when I blame myself for being unfortunate and lacking. But it is not. We’ve all done well in our respective places throughout the year and will do so in the coming New Year.
To choose one soul food that goes well with the beginning of the year, it is “rice soup.” There is no fancy plating, and it is not an expensive food that you have to be determined to eat once, but rice soup that seems to comfort customers by saying, “Good job today” with warm warmth at the same place. Let’s melt the heart as cold as the cold weather into a warm bowl of rice soup. “You’ve worked really hard this year.” With the comfort and determination you give me.
Best 5 warm rice soup
Seolleongtang with a strong soup taste, Chungjeong-ro’s 중림장.


A restaurant specializing in Seolleongtang with a long history in Chungjeong-ro. The table spacing is somewhat narrow, so it has a noisy atmosphere, but this is also one of the charms of old restaurants. It is divided into the soup menu of seolleongtang, ox knee soup, and tail soup, and the side dish menu where sunny side dishes, ox knee, and tail are boiled with boiled pork. Jungnimjang’s Seolleongtang is not white or clear, but it is the soup between the two. Add some green onions on the table and stir with a spoon, and the noodles and rice hidden in the soup appear. It features a strong meat scent and a rich soup. For this reason, customers who enjoy accompaniment with a soup in front of them are often seen.

Anam’s “동우설렁탕” is popular for sweet and sour kimchi roll noodles with Seolleongtang.


The restaurant specializing in seolleongtang has been open since 1969. There are only three menus: seolleongtang, plate boiled pork, and regular boiled pork. It is notable that there is a generous amount of kimchi soup served as a side dish. Regulars pour this kimchi soup into seolleongtang or ask for somen separately and eat it as kimchi rolled noodles. The advantage is that there is no additional charge for rice and noodles. The soup of Seolleongtang here is characterized by a clean and light taste, and the harmony of the chewy rice grains and plenty of meat is good. Let’s enjoy it with green onions as much as you like.

The combination of neat beef bone hangover soup and pungent chili pepper seasoning, Sinchon’s 북성해장국


A restaurant specializing in hangover soup located near Ahyeon Station. It sells only two menus, “Gomtang” with back ribs in beef bone soup and “Hangover Soup” with beef brisket, Seonji, and back ribs. The beef bone soup, which serves as the base, is characterized by a clean and light taste without oil. The signature of this restaurant is the Cheongyang red pepper paste sauce that you make yourself. It is made by aging Cheongyang peppers harvested in season every year for more than 200 days in Cheonil salt, and the taste of the soup that transforms spicy when put in a small amount in Gomtang is attractive. Thank you for the chewy Seonji served as a side dish.

The taste of seolleongtang in a 100-year-old store, nourishment ‘민정식당’


An old house made by renovating an old house near the Guui Station’s nourishment market. It was also selected as a centennial store. Minjeong Restaurant is very famous for its soft boiled pork, but at lunch, the types of soups such as hot Seolleongtang, ox head gomtang, and ox knee soup are also very popular. Kimchi and Seokbakji, which are served with plenty of soup, are the signature of the Minjeong Restaurant. The fresh taste of fresh kimchi stimulates the appetite. Salted squid, which is mixed with dried radish, is a side dish that boasts an excellent combination with seolleongtang. Minjeong Restaurant’s Seolleongtang comes out with noodles and green onions in the dried soup, and it is characterized by a savory taste of beef bone soup. Therefore, it boasts the best combination even for mixing rice. It recently opened a branch in Seoul Forest.

(siksin 548843): It’s already delicious even if you don’t try it in the quiet residential area in the alley. I didn’t mean to, but the visuals are also for Instagram. Take a sip of the soup and loosen your belt right away and simplify your outfit. I’ll do it here today! The soup is really incredible, so if you open a handful of soju, drink soju, and eat it, it becomes hangover, which you haven’t felt in a long time, and it’s the taste of both side dishes and hangover!
Beef-scented soup, Yangjae’s “곰쉐프진곰탕”.


Gomtang and naengmyeon restaurant located in Yangjae. It is a small store with four tables, but the taste of the gomtang in the bowl is very surprising. Gomtang, which contains sunny and savory rice dipped in clear soup with meat, is not seasoned at all, so you can add salt to suit your taste at the table. It is said that good beef is carefully trimmed, oil is removed, boiled in a cauldron, cooled down, and the oil is removed once more, so you need to taste how light the taste of the soup is. If you like the ingredients, I recommend Special Gomtang, which contains twice the amount of meat and bay leaves. It is also good for adding domestic radish, red pepper powder, and salted meat, pickled onions, and pickled perilla leaves.
