Window-seat chimaek with outdoor vibes at Haenggung Jangjak, Suwon
In short
Haenggung Jangjak Hanbang Tongdak is an oak firewood-roasted chicken restaurant on Suwon's Tongdak-geori (chicken street). After watching the jazz festival, the writer opened the doors at 5pm for a first-floor window seat, ordering the ₩23,000 herbal firewood-roasted chicken and three glasses of Terra draft beer at ₩5,000 each, with breeze drifting through the floor-to-ceiling windows for an open-air feel. The oil-free, clean-tasting chicken paired with cold draft beer makes it a great dinner spot for a date in Haenggung-dong.

Today's post is a review of a refreshing chimaek (chicken and beer) session at 'Haenggung Jangjak Hanbang Tongdak,' which I visited for dinner after watching the jazz festival in Haenggung-dong, Suwon Hwaseong!
A great spot on Suwon's chicken street after a Haenggung-dong walk
It's located on Suwon Tongdak-geori (chicken street), so it's a convenient place to grab a meal while strolling around Haenggung-dong!
There are really~~ so many cafés and restaurants in Haenggung-dong, but when you visit on a weekend, a lot of them don't quite live up to the wait time, so it's actually harder than you'd think to find a real gem...? But this place is run by a chef who used to work at the Shilla Hotel, apparently!
We did an opening-run at 5pm, and there were already people there having a meal...?? I assumed we'd be the first customers, but nope!!! Already smells like a hidden gem~~
1st floor window seats with outdoor vibes, and the 2nd floor group hall
After debating where to sit, we finally settled on the seat by the window since it had that open-air feel and looked like a great atmosphere!!
If the first floor hall is full, there's also a spacious hall like this one upstairs!!
There are 4-person tables and group seating too, so if you want to book a private group gathering, the 2nd floor looked great for that
While the 1st floor has that floor-to-ceiling window, open-air feel, the 2nd floor has the advantage of a nice view looking down through the windows
What we ordered and the prices
- Herbal firewood-roasted chicken ₩23,000
- Terra draft beer 500cc ₩5,000 x3 glasses
- Total ₩38,000
I wanted to try the seasoned version too, but since we're kind of a diet-conscious(?) couple, we went with the plain, clean firewood-roasted one hahaha
Sauces, side dishes, and the self-serve bar
The basic sauces are seasoned chicken sauce, honey mustard sauce, and salt. Side dishes are kimchi and radish-carrot pickle. And the self-serve bar also had ketchup and disposable aprons ready!
Sizzling on the stone plate: how the herbal firewood-roasted chicken tastes
Today's glowing dish, ㅠㅠㅠㅠ just looking at it makes my mouth water, I want to eat it again........
Ahh~~ this is the taste ㅠㅠ The whole chicken comes out sizzling on a stone plate, so you can keep eating it hot for a long time!!
As expected, draft beer and roast chicken is the perfect combo ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
The breeze drifted in from outside, which made it feel really nice, like an open-air spot >< The advantage of the first floor is that even the inner hall seats have a great view through the big glass windows, so you can feel that outdoor vibe there too
It was golden-brown and cooked so well~~!!!! Cheers to a happy day again🍻
Herbal-scented nurungji (scorched rice) inside the chicken
On top of that, inside the chicken there's plenty of savory nurungji (scorched rice) infused with the aroma of herbal medicine ingredients!!! It's basically a whole health-boosting dish ㅠㅠ
It comes out sizzling hot so it's not greasy at all, and the oil is completely drained out, giving it a really clean, healthy taste
Totally crispy outside, juicy inside.... Plus it's not fried, but smoked for a long time over oak firewood, so it has a healthy, clean flavor!! Eating it with the radish pickle that comes alongside was such a great match, and the beer just kept going down....hahaha Honestly I'm supposed to skip beer while dieting... but how am I supposed to hold back on this...? Draft beer is a must~~hahaha
Our sauce preferences split into two camps
Seorang is on Team sweet-and-tangy mustard~~
I'm on Team spicy-sweet seasoned sauce!! Seorang said it was so good he downed a glass of draft beer and ordered another round...>< Feels so satisfying to have brought us to another great spot today
Who's this good for
It's great for a Haenggung-dong date dinner like ours, and it also seems like a good spot for families to park nearby at the public lot and visit!!!! Such a happy evening....
