On a Saturday evening, we ordered a whole chicken stew, potato pancakes, and old-fashioned pork cutlet, then mixed rice into the rich, lightly spicy broth. Verdict: a great pick when you are craving a generously filled chicken stew with lots of rice cakes. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–23:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–16:00 - **Last order**: 22:00 - **Parking**: Parking available behind the building - **Seating**: About 10 tables - **Signature dishes**: Whole chicken (2–3 people) ₩35,000; one and a half chickens (3–4 people) ₩45,000 - **Our order**: Whole chicken (2–3 people) ₩35,000; potato pancakes ₩6,000; old-fashioned pork cutlet ₩10,000; 2 bowls of rice ₩2,000; cola ₩2,500 - **Amenities**: High chairs, disposable aprons, and Wi-Fi *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* Last weekend, we went out for a delicious dinner!

We visited a little after the dinner rush, so there were only about two cars parked there :) ## A Spacious Dining Room and Baby-Friendly Amenities ### Inside the Restaurant ![Inside Sottture Dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-04-1crxv-966.webp) ![Tables at Sottture Dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-05-11mv2-966.webp) ![Spacious interior of Sottture Dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-06-1wg81-966.webp) Sottture Dakdoritang is fairly spacious inside, with lots of tables. There are round tables and rectangular tables—about 10 in all. It looked good for lunch, dinner, or even a late-night meal. ![Table seating at Sottture Dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-07-151lk-966.webp) ![Restaurant seating inside Sottture Dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-08-crwmf-966.webp) We visited around 7 p.m. on a Saturday, and lots of people were having it as both a drinking snack and dinner!! Maybe that is why the refrigerator was packed full of drinks... 🪽 ![Drinks in the restaurant refrigerator](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-09-v8g0z-966.webp) Anyway, disposable aprons are ready for you, and there are high chairs for anyone visiting with a baby! ![Disposable aprons and a high chair](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-10-eyyfo-966.webp) ![Instructions for enjoying dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-11-n0l99-966.webp) ## How to Enjoy Dakdoritang There are even tips on how to enjoy Sottture Dakdoritang! - Boil it vigorously over high heat for about 2–3 minutes! - Turn down to low heat and start with the rice cakes! Eat in the order of rice cakes and vegetables, wings, breast meat, then drumsticks; it is even tastier if you let it reduce over low heat! - Pull the chicken meat off the bone and dip it in the broth with flat dumplings! - Add fried rice and ramen noodles to the reduced broth! ![Guide to eating dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-12-1idc6-966.webp) ![Self-service station and included side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-13-n6nwo-966.webp) Here are the self-service station and the included side dishes. The side dishes were so tasty and went really well with the dakdoritang, so make sure to try them together! ![Sottture Dakdoritang menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-14-ypbji-966.webp) ## Ordering Whole Chicken Stew, Potato Pancakes, and Pork Cutlet Here is the Sottture Dakdoritang menu! The signature dishes are the whole chicken for 2–3 people and one and a half chickens for 3–4 people, at ₩35,000 and ₩45,000 respectively! There are also extras such as flat dumplings, potato pancakes, and pork cutlet. This is what we ordered: whole chicken for 2–3 people ₩35,000, potato pancakes ₩6,000, old-fashioned pork cutlet ₩10,000, two bowls of rice ₩2,000, and cola ₩2,500. ![Ordered dakdoritang and potato pancakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-15-41we2-966.webp) ![Table setting with dakdoritang and potato pancakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-16-1bqk8-966.webp) Our dakdoritang and potato pancakes arrived! Ahh... the second I saw that dakdoritang broth, I thought, oh, this place is the real deal... ✨ I wanted to get it boiling and eat it right awayㅠㅠ!!! ![Dakdoritang broth before boiling](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-17-1ftx6-966.webp) There is also this cute quail-egg chicken decoration 🐔🐔 While the dakdoritang boils a little more, let us try the potato pancakes. ![Quail-egg chicken decoration and dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-18-17qo1-966.webp) You get two potato pancakes! They were exactly that crispy-outside, soft-inside goodness—the kids said they were delicious and ate them well, too! My husband loves potato pancakes, and he really enjoyed these ones 🤧 ![Two potato pancakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-19-1pxvi-966.webp) ![Old-fashioned pork cutlet eaten with the kids](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-20-5q1oe-966.webp) We ordered the pork cutlet for the kids!! Before ordering, I meant to ask for the sauce on the side, but forgot... If you are ordering pork cutlet for a child and want the sauce separately, be sure to say so before ordering! Here, it comes sauce-poured-over... 🤧 Anyway, even with the sauce poured over it, the pork cutlet itself was crispy and tasty, and it went well with the sauce. The kids usually do not eat pork cutlet with sauce much, but they ate this one well!! They had a good mix of potato pancakes, pork cutlet, and rice 👍🏻 ![Potato pancakes and pork cutlet side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-21-15wl8-966.webp) ![Dakdoritang bubbling as it cooks](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-22-1xf5s-966.webp) ## Dakdoritang That Gets Richer as the Broth Reduces The dakdoritang started bubbling away—once it is cooked a bit and the broth has reduced slightly, you can eat it. There were quite a lot of rice cakes and plenty of chicken, too! The broth was exactly how I like it: a little punchy and deeply rich. Let it reduce a bit more and it becomes the flavor I absolutely love 🤧 It was also so good to spoon a little broth over white rice and mix it in!! ![Dakdoritang with reduced broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-23-inknj-966.webp) I thought it was a huge amount, but the two of us ended up finishing it all, haha. We did share one bowl of rice, though, and we were so full that it was a little disappointing not to make the self-service fried rice.. Next time, I have to come back and properly have the self-service fried rice and ramen noodles, too!! 🤧💗 I really, really recommend Sottture Dakdoritang for either lunch or dinner!! ![Sottture Dakdoritang in Seongjeong-dong, Cheonan](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture-24-kp74t-1200.webp) ## Where it is - Sottture Dakdoritang (솥뚜레 닭도리탕) - 31 Seobu 19-gil, Seobuk-gu, Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea - 충청남도 천안시 서북구 서부19길 31 1층 (105호,106호) - 36.8248817, 127.1406523 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%86%A5%EB%9A%9C%EB%A0%88%20%EB%8B%AD%EB%8F%84%EB%A6%AC%ED%83%95/@36.8248817,127.1406523,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@chungcheong-lunchcloth/cheonan-seongjeongdong-dakbokkeumtang-sottture/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
