Today I give you a walking tour of where to get Halal dishes in South Korea. Halal Middle Eastern restaurants are scattered throughout Seoul, but there is a big concentration of them in Itaewon near the Seoul Central Masjid (mosque). We begin with lunch at Kervan, a Turkish eatery that serves some of the best chicken I've ever had in Korea. Watch the video below to see the action unfold!
