On each table, there was tubs of complimentary kimchi and radish. There was a pair of Scissors so that customers can cut them into smaller pieces.

The Ox Bone Stew (Seolnongtang) was delicious; rich and tasty with a unique mushroom flavour. Moreover, it was not at all salty! If you need, you can added the kimchi, radish, salt, pepper or red chilli flakes into the soup to enhance the taste. I saw no need for that. There were several pieces of sliced brisket in the broth.

The best way to enjoy the soup is to add the it into the rice, allowing the rice grains to soak up all the essence in the soup. Interestingly, the rice is refillable while the soup is not.
