Near Songnidan-gil. Nolbu Yuhwang Ori Jinheukgui Jamsil is a duck restaurant on Ogeum-ro in Songpa-gu, Seoul, specializing in sulfur-fed duck baked inside a clay shell. The clay-baking technique seals moisture into the meat during cooking while drawing out the gamey odors associated with duck, producing a result that is notably tender and clean-tasting, without the strong flavors that can put some diners off the bird. Inside the duck, a filling of five-grain sticky rice cooks alongside the meat, absorbing its juices and functioning as a built-in side dish. Wrapping slices of duck in fresh leafy greens with dipping sauce brings out the nutty, savory notes and makes for a satisfying bite. The full table-setting menu includes an impressive spread of banchan, with soy-marinated raw crab in the lineup, and deep-fried burdock root chips and stir-fried dried radish greens earning consistent praise from regulars among the side dishes. The nourishing, restorative character of duck soup and roasted duck makes the restaurant a frequent choice for treating parents or hosting family occasions with older guests seeking healthful meals. The dining area is spacious with ample seating for large family groups, and staff throughout the meal are notably attentive and friendly. Some diners find the duck meat can lean slightly dry and the five-grain rice inside may taste understated, so adjusting expectations on those elements beforehand makes for a more satisfying visit.
