01 LOCAL TABLEMiseongok
Miseongok is a traditional Korean restaurant in Myeongdong that has been serving Seolleongtang, a slow-cooked Korean beef soup, since 1966. The restaurant keeps its menu remarkably simple, focusing on Seolleongtang and Suyuk, boiled beef served as a separate dish. Its Seolleongtang is known for a clean, savory beef broth rather than an aggressively rich or salty flavor. Thin noodles and generous pieces of beef are served in the soup, making it a complete and comforting meal. For travelers, Miseongok offers a different side of Myeongdong from the busy shopping streets and tourist restaurants. The restaurant has long been part of the everyday food culture of central Seoul and is still visited by local diners as well as international visitors. Its early opening hours also make it particularly useful for travelers looking for a traditional Korean breakfast before exploring Myeongdong, City Hall or Euljiro.
