Why take this tour?
Chicken & beer is an obsession in Korea. You must experience this in the most immersive way possible before leaving Seoul.
Your guide is a food writer who consulted for Anthony Bourdain and food TV shows and magazines.
Go to three vastly different chicken restaurants and pubs that only locals know about. Each place has its story.
The first stop is an old school '90s style chicken "hof" to kick off the evening with different flavors of fried chicken and frosty beer.
After walking through the whole market, duck into a cozy country inn type of pub for some smoky barbecued chicken.
Then trek back through the market to a secret find that features a modern take on Korean chicken and beer, serving boneless morsels of dark meat in a spicy gochujang sauce, smothered in cheese. After toasting with beers served in authentic WWII canteen cups, relax to the '80s playlist while enjoying the atmosphere of the tavern, decorated with the owner's personal collection of WWII memorabilia.

**WE DON'T RECOMMEND USING A TAXI**
Every time a guest has been late or has missed a booking has been because of using a taxi. Taxis almost always get stuck in traffic. These days, there's a taxi driver shortage, so they're unreliable. Seoul has one of the easiest, cleanest, and safest subway systems in the world. Much better than taxis.
