Food: Authentic, hearty bowls to relish
Shin Chon Seolnongtang has earned high marks for its distinctly Korean flavors. The soothing Sul Lung Tang broth, the indulgent Spicy Hangover Soup, and the Ox Bone Soup filled with tripe, spleen, and brisket are delightful testaments to the culinary skills at work. Accolades aside for the flavors, the freshness of ingredients, generous portions, and the perceived value-for-money contribute to the flavorful and satisfying food experience. Simplicity is the cornerstone here.
