A Warm Meal: 5 Seoul Michelin Bib Gourmand Soup Spots

Choose from seolleongtang, dwaeji-gukbap, doganitang and chueotang

After a cold day or a long walk, a warm bowl of soup comes to mind. We gathered seolleongtang, dwaeji-gukbap, doganitang and chueotang from 2026 Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurants so you can compare different broths and meat textures.

The five Seoul spots are Mapo-ok, Okdongsik, Daesungjip, Yonggeumok and Anam. From clear meat broth to chewy ox knee and aromatic pork soup, pick according to today's craving.
Mapo-ok (마포옥)

Mapo-ok (마포옥)

Mapo-ok is a seolleongtang restaurant that tops a broth made from brisket, beef belly and ox bones with thick slices of meat. Selected for the 2026 Bib Gourmand, it offers a comparatively clear Mapo-style broth for anyone who pictures seolleongtang only as milky white.

The rice is warmed in broth (toryeom) so it soaks up the flavor, and it is eaten together with the thick slices of meat. Chadoltang adds boiled beef belly, letting you enjoy the difference in cuts compared with the brisket-focused seolleongtang.

Okdongshik Seogyo Branch

Okdongshik Seogyo Branch

Okdongsik (옥동식)

Okdongsik is a 2026 Bib Gourmand restaurant serving a clear broth made from lean black pork with broth-warmed rice. Served with thinly sliced pork, it suits those looking for a different taste from gukbap made with rich bone broth.

Take your time to savor the aroma of the broth itself and the texture of the rice. You can also add kimchi dumplings on the side. The Seogyo location on Yanghwa-ro 7-gil is a small space, so it helps to leave some room in your schedule before and after the meal.

Daesung House

Daesung House

Daesungjip (대성집)

Daesungjip in Jongno is a 2026 Bib Gourmand restaurant known for its doganitang with ox knee cartilage, tendon and shank. It is a good pick when you are interested not only in differences in meaty aroma but also in the textures created by chewy cuts and a gentle broth.

Kimchi, kkakdugi (radish kimchi) and garlic pickled in gochujang let you vary the flavor within a single bowl. At the Jongno location at 5 Sajik-ro, focus your meal on enjoying the springy texture of the ox knee.

Yonggeumok (Tongin-dong, 용금옥)

Yonggeumok (Tongin-dong, 용금옥)

Yonggeumok in Tongin-dong is a chueotang specialist on Jahamun-ro in Jongno-gu. A 2026 Bib Gourmand restaurant, it serves both Seoul-style chueotang, which uses whole loach, and Namdo-style, in which the loach is ground into the soup.

You can choose your dish based on the form of the main ingredient and your preferred texture. It is conveniently located for a stroll around Seochon; just check the Tongin-dong address to distinguish it from the restaurant of the same name in Da-dong, Jung-gu.

Anam (안암)

Anam (안암)

Anam in Bukchon adds an oil made from Cheongyang chili and kale to its dwaeji-gukbap, bringing out both aroma and color. Selected for the 2026 Bib Gourmand, it lets you enjoy the tender texture of pork such as thinly sliced pork neck.

It suits days when you want to taste familiar gukbap in a slightly different direction. You can choose a different amount of meat or add cilantro, so you can build your bowl to suit your appetite and taste for herbs.

For beef broth, try Mapo-ok; for light, clean pork, Okdongsik; and for a chewy texture, Daesungjip. Chueotang leads you to Yonggeumok in Tongin-dong, and gukbap with a different aroma to Anam in Bukchon.

Choose based on differences in texture and aroma, such as clear meat broth, chewy cuts, or loach that is ground or used whole. Yonggeumok refers to the Tongin-dong location, and Daesungjip to the Jongno location.
