Kimseobangnae Dakgalbi is a Taebaek-style dakgalbi (spicy stir-fried chicken) restaurant located at the entrance of Hwangji Pond. This version of dakgalbi is distinct from the Chuncheon style as it includes vegetables like kkaennip (perilla leaves), cabbage, and ssukgat (crown daisy) cooked in broth. The fragrant aroma of ssukgat and the spicy soup beautifully complement the chicken. The homemade sauce enhances the broth's flavor, and finishing the meal with bokkeumbap (fried rice) prepared using the remaining soup is considered a highlight.
