We brought along the Sertu Soap this time so that we can use the utensils in the pantry of our Guesthouse. You can get this soap(bar or liquid type) from any Malay shops in Woodlands, geylang etc..
Gam Ro Dang Restaurant (감로당)
Today we went to Gam Ro Dang (Pronounced as "Gam-No-Dang") just behind the Gyeongbuk Palace. The Vegetarian restaurant is housed in an actual bungalow, with its own herb garden. It's 2-storey high, and delicious temple food is served. "Eh? Temple food?" you might say. yes, Temple Food but it's visually pleasing and delightful to eat (Might be a tad expensive at 23000 won per person for a 9-course meal).
But for Muslim tourists, I think it's the best way to taste authentic Korean food.
Just remember to call or email the manager at least 2-3 days in advance, as they would need time to prepare the courses.
Looks like Daejanggeum food
By subway, take to Gyeongbukgung Station exit 3. Walk pass by Dunkin Donut till you see Starbucks on your right. Turn right after Starbucks, walk about 1 minute into the alley and you will see the sign (in the photo above)
By Taxi, ask the driver to enter the address into the GPS, stop outside Starbucks and walk into the alley as mentioned above.
