Two diners ordered the whole chicken for 35,000 won with a rolled omelet and self-made fried rice, and the pot held far more chicken than vegetables or rice cakes, leaving both of them stuffed.

I finally went to Sottture, famous in Cheonan as a dakdoritang hotspot! 🫕❤️ Lunch or dinner, doesn't matter — the place is always packed and delivery orders keep pouring in, so I had to go see just how good it really is ~ ![Exterior of Sottture Dakdoritang in Seongjeong-dong, Cheonan](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-01-1xjjo-900.webp) ![Steaming cauldron at the entrance of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-02-xz82g-900.webp) There's a cauldron steaming right at the entrance, which only made me more curious about Sottture Dakdoritang. ![Sign at the entrance about lunch and takeout discounts](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-03-9jxv7-900.webp) ![Restaurant signboard with photos of chicken stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-04-1qghl-900.webp) A sign said lunch and takeout orders get ₩5,000 off. Even just from the photos, the chicken stew looked amazing ••🫢 ![Appetizing promotional photo of chicken stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-05-l8np4-900.webp) ![Front view of Sottture Dakdoritang restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-06-un1m3-900.webp) 🚘 There's a parking lot behind the restaurant, which made visiting really convenient. ![Parking lot set up behind the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-07-1ovai-900.webp) ## Sottture Dakdoritang menu and prices Sottture Dakdoritang's menu is made up of the main chicken stew dish plus extras and drinks. - Whole chicken (2-3 people) ₩35,000 - Whole chicken and a half (3-4 people) ₩45,000 - Flat mandu ₩5,000 - Potato pancake ₩6,000 - Rolled omelet ₩10,000 - Old-style pork cutlet ₩10,000 - Ramyeon noodles ₩2,000 - Self-made fried rice ₩2,000 - Rice ₩1,000 - Drinks They even have a pork cutlet on the menu, which seemed like a great option if you're bringing kids along. I debated between ordering the potato pancake or the rolled omelet, and ended up going with the whole chicken plus the rolled omelet, a cola, and self-made fried rice. At Sottture Dakdoritang, everything is cooked to order and simmered down right at your table, so you get a chicken stew with a rich, concentrated chicken broth flavor — they use domestic chicken and make their own broth from scratch, so of course it's delicious . . 💟💟 ![Sottture Dakdoritang's menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-08-180r9-900.webp) ![Menu listing the whole chicken set and extra dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-09-lne9d-1200.webp) ![Basic side dishes set out after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-10-1v6yw-900.webp) ### Side dishes and the mood inside Sottture Dakdoritang As soon as we ordered, they brought out basic side dishes — radish, cucumber pickles, pickled onion, kimchi — and you can get more from the self-serve bar if you run out. The interior had more tables than I expected, and it was clean. ![Clean restaurant interior with plenty of tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-11-11u5i-900.webp) ## How big is the 10,000 won rolled omelet? I ordered the rolled omelet 🍳 thinking it would go well with the spicy-sweet chicken stew! I was surprised by how huge it was, and it tasted just like the rolled omelet you'd make at home — really good. Perfect either as a kids' dish or as a drinking snack 💛 ![A large plate of rolled omelet](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-12-1820m-900.webp) ## Is the 35,000 won whole chicken enough for two? After we'd eaten a few pieces of the omelet, our chicken stew arrived! ❤️ The red sauce, the smell, the portion — all insane. And the eggs... the little chick-shaped eggs were so cute and a little sad too (?) ![Red-sauced chicken stew with chick-shaped eggs](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-13-1wovp-900.webp) Everywhere else, you usually get more vegetables or rice cake than meat, but Sottture Dakdoritang really loads up on chicken — vegetables < rice cake <<<<<< chicken. It made for a really hearty, filling meal! The sauce wasn't just spicy or just sweet — it had that spicy-sweet balance, almost like tteokbokki (rice cake in spicy sauce) simmered down with chicken broth, or a chicken jjigae (stew). The broth was just plain delicious. ![Reduced chicken stew broth with chicken pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-14-tvskz-900.webp) ### What order to eat the chicken stew in Next to the menu, there was a tip on how to eat: rice cake < wings < breast < drumstick. As the chicken fat and sauce simmer down together, the sauce gets incredibly good — it's basically a rice thief . . 🍚🤍 ![Sign showing the recommended eating order](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-15-cxaa5-900.webp) Following the order, we tried the rice cake, wings, and egg first, and the chicken was so tender and delicious that we ate really enthusiastically. The meat was so substantial that the two of us nearly burst! ![Pot of chicken stew leftover after two people ate](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-16-1tyzz-900.webp) ## Finishing with self-made fried rice for 2,000 won And now, the moment we'd been waiting for — self-made fried rice. ![Rice and ingredients prepared for self-made fried rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-17-ejmkv-900.webp) ![Pot with only the sauce left for frying rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-18-1dfre-900.webp) We scooped the leftover chicken stew into a separate bowl, leaving just the sauce for frying the rice! ![Rice being fried in the leftover sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-19-1gery-900.webp) Fry that rice, fry that rice ~ with all my heart ![Finished self-made fried rice with chicken stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two-20-s1rg8-900.webp) Even the fried rice was delicious to the very last bite! The portions are generous and everything was so good, it seemed like a great spot for a family gathering or a company dinner. ## Where it is - Sottture Dakdoritang (솥뚜레 닭도리탕) - 31 Seobu 19-gil, 1st floor (Units 105, 106), Seobuk-gu, Cheonan-si, 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/@eunhaeng-mirror-drawer/cheonan-seongjeongdong-sotddure-dakdoritang-two/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
