Seoul Korean Chicken & Beer Tour

In South Korea, chicken and beer is a complete obsession! This tasty food tour will transform your understanding of Korean nightlife and foodie culture as you experience an evening like a true local, trying the most tantalizing, succulent chicken in town, exploring the magnificent Mangwon Market, and washing everything down with brilliant Korean beers!

Your first stop on this appetizing adventure is the Mangwon Traditional Market, giving you a glimpse of where the chicken and beer culture all began - Korean fried chicken owes its origins to traditional markets.

Explore this exciting, fragrant environment before following your guide into a classic locale to try some sublime ‘hof-style’ chicken - chicken brined in garlic and ginger, coated with select spices, and fried twice. Originating between 1970 and 1990, this style of chicken promises an aromatic dish with succulent meat coated in a spectacularly crunchy skin.

Entering your second establishment, admire the cozy interior of your guide’s next recommendation - it has the feel of a Joseon-era country inn. Here, settle down for a sumptuous speciality of smoked chicken drizzled in sweet and spicy sauce and served on a sizzling platter.

Finally, try the chicken of the future! At your next stop, you’ll try your guide’s favorite chicken, said by some guests to be the best they have ever tasted! This dark, boneless meat is served on a sizzling platter, drenched in Korean sauce with delicate rice cakes and sweet potatoes coated in sumptuous cheese.

As you eat, enjoy the incredible atmosphere - the owner of this restaurant has proudly displayed his collection of WWII memorabilia, and treats his guests to a terrific soundtrack of ‘80s new wave, ‘60s psychedelic, and ‘90s lounge-tronica as they dine.
