Read guide →Bunsik — Korean street-food snacks — evolved as affordable, filling fare for students and workers after the Korean War. Tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), kimbap (seaweed rice rolls), sundae (blood sausage), and odeng (fish cake skewers in broth) are the staples. Most bunsik restaurants are fast, casual, and open late, making them a go-to for a quick hot meal at any hour.
Gangdong-gu in southeastern Seoul is a family-oriented district known for its community markets and traditional Korean restaurants. Cheonho Market offers one of Seoul's best selections of traditional banchan, grilled fish, and home-style Korean cooking away from the tourist circuit.
I stopped by Yangpyeong Haejangguk Godeok Station branch for lunch after running some errands nearby! There were quite a few customers. As a person who loves offal... The offal soup is a bit pricey^^ The side dishes are delicious. The pot is a bit smallㅜㅜ But it's still delicious. There's a good amount of offal! The alcohol I had yesterday has gone down really well~ It's been a while since I've had a good sweat and felt refreshed^^
