Gone are the days of crappy highway rest stop food in Korea as more drivers actually go out to find some of the more popular offerings at the country's service areas.


The Korean Highways Corporation has announced its top 10 list of eateries along the nation’s highways.

This year’s winner was “Ginseng Galbitang” on the Tongyeong Expressway in Daejeon in the direction of Hanam, noted for adding ginseng to its broth to give it a fresh taste and smooth broth, which will set you back 10,000 won.
