Welcome to the ULTIMATE SEOUL FOOD TOUR where we discover the most delicious, authentic Korean dishes and iconic restaurants across South Korea’s bustling capital! Seoul is a world-famous foodie destination, celebrated globally for its mouthwatering street food, vibrant markets, and unique culinary culture. Whether you're new to Korean cuisine or a seasoned fan, join us as we taste our way through the city’s best bites, ranging from hearty traditional soups to modern cafe delights.

We begin our culinary journey by diving into Gamjatang (감자탕), the savory Korean pork spine stew, a soul-warming dish perfect for colder days. Packed with tender pork, potatoes, perilla leaves, sesame, vegetables, and glass noodles, Gamjatang is an iconic must-eat comfort food in Korea. Watch as we add a tasty bonus of ramen noodles to this already spectacular dish, showcasing how customizable Korean meals can be!

Next, we explore another beloved Korean classic, Kimchi Bokkeumbap (김치 볶음밥). This Kimchi Fried Rice, available at Gimbap Cheonguk (김밥천국), blends spicy fermented kimchi with rice, vegetables, and a fried egg on top—a true Korean comfort dish that bursts with flavor and texture.

Our delicious adventure continues with Budae Jjigae (부대찌개)—the legendary Korean Army Base Stew. Born from historical necessity and ingenuity, this stew combines kimchi, sausages, ramen noodles, vegetables, and spam in a spicy, flavorful broth. It's an unforgettable taste of Korean history and a must-experience dish when visiting Seoul.

No food tour would be complete without sampling Mandu (만두), traditional Korean dumplings. We taste them steamed, boiled, and served in Manduguk (만두국), a soothing dumpling soup perfect for any meal. See how these delicate handmade dumplings can quickly become your favorite Korean snack!

We then hit the bustling streets of Seoul for a vibrant Korean Street Food Taste Test, exploring markets and food stalls where you’ll discover snacks like tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), hotteok (sweet pancakes), and crispy fried chicken—offering tastes you’ll crave again and again.

For dessert lovers, we indulge in Korea’s popular sweet treats starting with Bingsu (빙수)—the Korean shaved ice dessert at Sulbing (설빙). Fluffy shaved ice piled high with sweet toppings like red beans, mango, strawberries, or condensed milk makes for a refreshing delight. Additionally, we visit Caffé Bene (카페베네), our favorite Korean dessert cafe known for its cozy atmosphere and indulgent waffles, ice cream, and coffees.

Korea’s famous Shabu-Shabu (샤브샤브) hotpot experience awaits, featuring thinly sliced meats, vegetables, and noodles cooked tableside in flavorful broth—a perfect meal for friends and family gatherings.

No Korean culinary adventure would be complete without Galbi (갈비), the irresistible Korean Barbecue of marinated short ribs grilled right at your table. Experience the unique Korean BBQ dining style and see why it's one of Korea's top culinary exports worldwide.

Comfort food continues with Juk (죽), Korean rice porridge, perfect for a soothing breakfast or light meal. With varieties like chicken, seafood, and vegetable juk, this gentle dish is ideal for any palate.

Next, we sample the traditional pairing of Jeon (전), Korean savory pancakes, with Korea’s beloved rice wine, Makgeolli (막걸리). Taste two iconic styles—Kimchi Jeon (김치전) and Haemul Pajeon (해물파전)—and discover your favorite while sipping Makgeolli.
