Really this is the true Korean traditional food. I loved ongsimmy (옹심이) and loved tofu kimchi(두부김치) with rice wine(막걸리).

Exhausted body + Ongsimi = 100% Health Rating! Like our "friendly" T-800(A Terminator) kept his promise to come back, YOU'LL BE BACK HERE once you try a bowl of ‘Gamja Ongsimi (potato dough soup).’ Just like baby birds get imprinted on their mother, you’ll never, ever forget this place! On the last day of the trip in Gangneung last January, I went here with my best friend for lunch, dragging my tired body after a long walk during the trip. We were wondering what ‘Ongsimi’ would taste like, because we’d never heard of it before. The restaurant was located on the second floor of an old, ordinary Korean-style building in Joong-ang market. The spacious hall gave off a "grandparents' house" vibe making me instantly feel welcome! Within 10 minutes of waiting, two bowls of ‘Ongsimi’ were served with its steam beautifully rolling up like a mirage in the desert. Surprised by the first look of a traditional royal delicacy, I tried my first spoonful. It was then that I shouted out ‘Ohoooong!!!!’ For a moment, I thought to myself that it might have been named ‘Ongsimi’ because it makes people shout ‘Ong!!!!’ The scene of people getting shocked and mind-blown after trying just one bite of their meal in an old cartoon ‘Chuka Ichiban(a.k.a. Cooking Master Boy in Japanese)’ passed through my mind. The ping-pong ball sized potato dumplings were chewy indeed, and the mild taste and warmth of soup just soothed my whole body. I felt like I was Olaf melting in the hot summer sun. Besides, the sliced egg garnish, sweet pumpkin, seaweed, sesame powder, and mushrooms added some wonderful extra flavor. It felt like I was drinking a well-boiled medical herb super juice. I literally EMPTIED the bowl to the last drop! Gosh, it was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. One thing I felt needs to be improved here is the restroom. It was too small and old. If it is renovated into clean and modern one, the customers will be more satisfied. :) And yet, if you wanna try some decent local dishes in Gangneung with only 7~8 bucks, if you wanna feel ‘healing’, and if you wanna have one of your best food in your life, enter its address to your car navigation for your next destination! You’ll never regret it! (FYI - extra menu: soybean paste chopped noodles, potato rice cake, stir-fried spicy pork, and soft tofu)
