[Seo-Gu/Restaurant] Suil Tongdak (Chicken)

Suil Tongdak

Did you know there were two very special chicken restaurents in Gwangju?
They are 'Su-il' and "Yangdong Sijang' Chicken!

Several chain stores are on the street so it is not hard to find them.
But original ones are on 'Chicken street' in Yang-dong traditional market.
Let's try Suil Tongdak(chicken) today!

01 ｜Visit

 Both Yang-dong and Suil chicken restaurents are located oppsite to each other.

Surprsingly, they don't fight to attract more customers

because they don't worry about it. There are always a big crowd of people.

 I could see they both constantly cook fried chicken.

 When I entered inside, it was packed with people even though it was only lunch time.

 When I entered inside, it was packed with people even though it was only lunch time.

 This is the menu. It is as the simplest as it can get.

Choose either fried chicken or sauced one

and either halves or a whole chicken.

 (You can choose two different flavors, too in case of ordering the whole chicken)

​You can even choose one and a half in case of fried chicken.

Since I had a big lunch earlier, so I ordered a half of fried chicken.

​

*You might have to wait a little as the chicken will be cooked right after the order is placed

02 ｜Tasting 

 Here comes our chicken!

it was hard to believe it was only a half as it looked REALLY big!

 Crips and hot chicken. mmm.. so good.

   You get extra dish as well, that is fried gizzard!

We got five of them.

They tasted absolutely amazing!

I was tempted to order them more.

You can dip your chicken in this special sacue

which is both sweet and sour. But not too strong flavored which was perfect with chicken.

The sauce was a bit different from other ones that you can get on the supermarkets.

 It tasted even better as it was just cooked.

Help yourself to some radish and sauce.

 I totally forgot that I ate lunch.

I finished it all!
