Two bowls of kalguksu and one plate of dumplings brought milky broth, moist chicken and springy noodles, with milder kimchi and spicy chili paste from the self-serve bar.

I was craving hot broth and came away full and satisfied?! I've gone here on and off for years because you get to enjoy chicken and kalguksu (noodle soup) together, and the Tongdosa branch was really tasty too 🤤 ![Chicken kalguksu enjoyed with chicken and noodles together](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-01-19hxd-900.webp) > Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch ![Exterior of Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-02-yg74q-900.webp) *Exterior* ## Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch: hours and parking 11:00 - 21:00 Last order 20:00 Closed every Wednesday ![Business hours signage at Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-03-11b6y-900.webp) ![Business hours signage at Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-04-so711-900.webp) You can park for free at the large dedicated lot behind the restaurant~~! ![Free dedicated parking lot behind the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-05-2ecfd-900.webp) ![Free dedicated parking space behind the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-06-n6o5v-900.webp) The Yangsan Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa branch had a spacious interior.

You can choose spicy or mild kimchi — since my stomach wasn't great that day, I went with mild 🌶️ ![Self-serve bar with pickled radish and choice of mild or spicy kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-11-1p6xo-900.webp) They set out salt for dipping the chicken and kimchi to go alongside. Eonyang Dak Kalguksu is actually known for its kimchi — did you know that ~.~ ![Salt and kimchi served alongside the chicken kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-12-149zx-900.webp) ![Kimchi and salt to eat with the chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-13-1yoqu-900.webp) ![Spicy chili paste and pepper](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-14-zwobu-900.webp) And for anyone who wants it spicy, there's spicy chili paste and pepper on hand too! ![A full spread of half-chicken kalguksu and chewy dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-15-7n0lc-1200.webp) ## What half-chicken kalguksu and chewy dumplings are like I ordered two chicken kalguksu and the chewy dumplings, and the sight of it was no joke ヾ(´∀`)ﾉﾞ Glossy dumplings and a whole half chicken sitting right there....!!! The noodles were chewy yet soft, a perfect match with the broth. So good 🤤 ![Chicken kalguksu with chewy, soft noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-16-1yk32-900.webp) ![Chicken kalguksu with half a chicken inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-17-qhosn-900.webp) ![Kalguksu noodles that pair well with the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-18-1x2l5-900.webp) ![Chicken kalguksu served with pickled radish and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-19-crqg3-900.webp) It's great on its own, but eating it with pickled radish and kimchi also worked so well!!!!! The chicken wasn't dry at all — moist enough to eat together with the noodles :) Rather than being overly seasoned or salty, the milky broth had a savory, clean flavor, which made it a great meal for my unsettled stomach that day! ![Moist chicken and milky chicken kalguksu broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-20-1lzn5-900.webp) ## Chewy dumplings dipped in sweet soy sauce True to their name, the dumpling wrappers were chewy and springy, satisfying to bite into, while the filling was moist, savory and light. I kept dipping one after another into the sweet soy sauce and before I knew it, they were all gone........ ![Chewy dumplings dipped in sweet soy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-21-aymcv-900.webp) ![Light, savory dumplings served with kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu-22-13bca-900.webp) They're tasty with spicy kimchi too, but since the dumplings themselves are light and delicious, they're great eaten plain as well haha ## Is it worth it? A clean-tasting, warming meal Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch, a clean and light-tasting Tongdosa favorite. They have chicken kalguksu with a whole half chicken inside and Eonyang-style kalguksu with a deep, rich flavor, and I hear the chicken gomtang comes with a half chicken plus rice too! They also have spicy and soy braised chicken, so it seems like a great choice for a satisfying dinner or as a drinking snack. The broth is savory and made from chicken gomtang stock, so it's not overly seasoned but has real depth, and it left me feeling warmed all the way through. If you're craving kalguksu now that the weather's turning chilly, do visit Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch in Yangsan, Gyeongnam :) The owner is kind too, and the food is genuinely good. ## Where it is - Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Tongdosa Branch (언양닭칼국수 통도사점) - 6 Tongdosa-ro, Habuk-myeon, Yangsan-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea - 경상남도 양산시 하북면 통도사로 6 언양닭칼국수 통도사점 - 35.4925578, 129.0893172 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%96%B8%EC%96%91%EB%8B%AD%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%ED%86%B5%EB%8F%84%EC%82%AC%EC%A0%90/@35.4925578,129.0893172,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@harbor-supper-pages/yangsan-tongdosa-chicken-kalguksu-mandu/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
