중앙곰탕
45-year underground Jung-gu gomtang house built around beef tripe soup
An old gomtang restaurant in a basement space between Jungang-dong and Busan Station. It is a direct, working local soup stop instead of a polished destination.
The yang-subaek and special yang gomtang are the main draws, with soft beef tripe and a broth that keeps the offal aroma under control. The regular gomtang is also a good value order.
Choose it for old-downtown lunches, hangover soup, or a useful meal with older guests. The room is plain; the point is the broth and the amount of meat.
Known for: Yang-subaek KRW 18,000 · Suyuk-baekban KRW 18,000 · Special yang gomtang KRW 14,000 · Gomtang KRW 12,000. Expect small changes through the year, so check what is available that day.
