Okay, fellow foodies, let's talk tteokbokki! I recently stumbled upon a hidden gem in Seoul – (짱구떡볶이) – and I'm officially obsessed. Located at 서울 종로구 통일로 230 1층 22호, this isn't just your average rice cake joint. Think cozy, retro decor meets an explosion of flavor. The tteokbokki itself? Perfectly chewy rice cakes swimming in a sweet, spicy, and undeniably addictive sauce. They've clearly mastered the art of balancing flavors. The spice has a kick, but it’s tempered by a subtle sweetness that keeps you coming back for more. But it’s not just about the tteokbokki – the sides are fantastic too! From crispy mandu (dumplings) to refreshing danmuji (pickled radish), everything complements the main event perfectly. Honestly, after one bite, I knew I had found my new go-to tteokbokki spot. It's the kind of place that feels like a warm hug on a chilly day. If you're in Seoul and looking for an authentic and incredibly delicious tteokbokki experience, (짱구떡볶이) is an absolute must-try. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Pro-tip: go with friends and order a few different add-ins to share!
