This article was machine-translated from the Korean original. Read the Korean original

Located in Gosam-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, Shinan CC is a golf course owned by the Shinan Group that opened in 1999 and operates as a 27-hole course consisting of Tomato, Apple, and Orange courses. It is considered a course where players can hit powerful driver shots thanks to its generous length, with some holes reaching 575 meters as par-5s, and wide fairways. It also has a history of hosting the KLPGA Jump Tour for several years. Recently, some holes have been operating on a shortened schedule due to ongoing expansion work for the public course.

The area encompassing Gosam-myeon and Yangseong-myeon, where Sinan CC is located, is bordered by golf courses such as Maestro CC, Pine Creek CC, and Powell CC Anseong, so users of these various courses frequent the same restaurant district, sharing the commercial area. We have compiled reviews from various bloggers to list places worth visiting before or after a round of golf.

01A Chicken Restaurant with a 30-Year Tradition — Gourmet

The most frequently mentioned place near Sinan CC is 'Sikdorak'. Located at 2092 Anseongmatchum-daero, Gosam-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is a chicken specialty restaurant that has been operating in the same location for over 30 years since 1991. It is open daily from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM (last order at 7:00 PM, closed on Tuesdays), and its signature dishes include the combination of Jeolla-style duck soup with water parsley, spicy braised chicken, and flavorful chicken soup with Phellinus linteus mushrooms. Reviews also indicate that the Phellinus linteus abalone ginseng chicken soup, dried cabbage soup, and spicy chicken stew are consistently popular.

Reviews indicate that it is frequently used for golf gatherings, alumni reunions, and corporate events, featuring a spacious parking lot accommodating up to 50 cars, a private room for groups (8 tables, 32 people), and a main dining hall (14 tables, 64 people). It is recommended to call 30 minutes in advance to order dishes such as Baeksook (chicken soup) or herbal stews, and the layout—with a restaurant on the first floor and a café (Time Slow) on the second—makes it convenient to grab a cup of coffee right after your meal.

While wondering why all the food and ingredients were so delicious, I saw a sign stating that they use only domestically sourced ingredients. It gave me the impression that this is a trustworthy and wholesome restaurant.
