Sooo....I´m back and thanks to the wonderful girls at some airport informations and receptionists, I found two working Bosintang places (Seoul, Busan) and another one working but not visited (Jeju city, the most pretty receptionist I´ve seen gave me scary 10-seconds look after hearing Bosintang, but found it for me anyway). I´d put here exact locations of the first two in google maps and the photo of the Jeju directions if you, folks, were interested, but at first I have to discover how to put the google maps (or better street view) links and pictures into the thread here.

Glad you got your dog fill. It becomes popular during the stamina dropping rainy season in July and August.

it was great. I got cold on the way to Korea, so the hot and spicy Bosintang was the best cure :-) It was especially funny to see all those little licker-dog pets on the way from the restaurant and even the chihuahua dog with pampers on Haeundae beach :-)

You'd probably also like samgyetang, as explained, by this great Korean medical clinic. The Korean version of chicken noodle soup. One of my favs too!

Just for your information, 8/10 Korean women suposely had some form of plastic surgery done. Your perceived beauty may not be genuine. I'm just saying...

and finally...directions to the Jeju dog restaurant, originally written by (another pretty) receptionist:

I was in Busan last week. Don't speak any Korean but had a local friend to show me around. The police in the last month have done a major clampdown on restaurants/markets selling dog, and the places now are mostly hidden, although it might be more open in future if the police back off.
A few enquiries at restaurants previously famous for dog gave us hints where we could find it, and they were mostly small back-alley restaurants, initially denying they had dog, but happy to serve it once they gained our trust. Don't really see the appeal myself, the meat isn't all that nice - I ate it more for the novelty factor. |
I wonder if they're clamping down because of the Olympics?

As for Shanghai, in the years I lived there, I never once saw dog meat, but, of course, I wasn't really looking too hard.
