Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
Manseok Dakgangjeong Main Branch is located near Cheongchoho Lake. It is a traditional specialty store that has been making only dakgangjeong (sweet and spicy fried chicken) for 30 years in Sokcho, with several branches throughout the city. Among them, the Manseok Dakgangjeong at Sokcho Central Market gained popularity after appearing on the popular entertainment program '1 Night 2 Days,' and many people visit, so waiting times can be considerable on weekends or during peak seasons. The secret to the taste of Manseok Dakgangjeong lies in the cauldron. Using traditional Korean cauldrons, the chicken is fried with heat exceeding 180 degrees Celsius and maintained at a constant temperature, resulting in a completely different flavor from that of regular frying machines. The oil is changed more than three times a day to maintain freshness and cleanliness. When thinking of Sokcho's food, Manseok Dakgangjeong cannot be left out. If you cannot visit a Manseok Dakgangjeong store during your trip to Sokcho, you can order by phone. Delivery and nationwide courier service are available.
