Special recommendation: Grandma Chen Yuhua’s gourmet experience with Yuanzu’s chicken

When we went to dine, the first floor was full and we had to look for an empty seat. At that time, there were only plate seats left, so we did as the Romans do and chose a seat by the window to enjoy the food. Although the menu and the signs on the wall are all in Korean, and we came here without doing any homework, we were afraid of confusing the order. Fortunately, due to the increase in Chinese-speaking customers in the store, there are some aunties who can speak Chinese, so there is no problem in helping with the ordering service! The two of us ordered a chicken pot with green onions, rice cakes, potatoes and rice. When the aunt served the chicken soup, the aroma hit us, and our saliva almost dripped out.

When ordering food, the auntie asked us if we want to put garlic?Must say...Yes!

After the table is served, the aunt quickly cuts it into pieces. When the fire is turned on, the green onions and garlic are cooked in the pot. Finally, all the side dishes are added. The first taste of the chicken is tender and garlic. It is very good without adding any seasonings. eat.The Korean people next to each table are lively, drinking shochu and eating with kimchi. I can’t drink and want Wendy to drink. He considers going to the scenic spots in the afternoon and recommends it.
