Another local specialty is Taebaek Dalkgalbi commonly called Water Dalkgalbi (물닭갈비). Taebaek Dalkgalbi is more of a soup version of the more common Chuncheon Dalkgalbi, hence the name 'water'. It is marinated Chicken in a gochujang Sauce served with ramyeon or udon noodles. There are many places that serve dalkgalbi, but the original restaurant is simply called "Taebaek Dalkgalbi".

A traditional Korean home specializing in mountain vegetable bibimbap can be found within the city.
