Lunch and then afterLike I mentioned Koreans are not early risers. Street Carts usually

start coming out around 10:30 and stay open till late. The best places are over by

Noryangjin. Which is an area across from the fish markets. Here is a famous cram school

area (kids studying to pass their college entrance exams or a test to become a doctor or

lawyer etc). So they need their food fast and to get back to class. Food here is cheap andhearty.

1) Kimchi Fried Rice: Here you get kimchi fried rice in a cup topped with a fried, over-easy

egg. The rice is fried with tiny cubes of ham and roasted seaweed. Variations include cheese

and bulgogi.

The famous lady who started the whole trend taught some younger, hungrier guys to do it

and now they run the show.

2) Tokkebi Hotdogs: Tokkebi are demon pranksters in Korean Folklore that carry around

magical spiked clubs that they can use to cast spells on unassuming people. They can also

use the clubs to beat on the ground and conjure up food and drinks and gold. This is a

hotdog that is double battered and double fried on a stick. Its basically a hotdog. Toupgrade these hotdogs, some places have been crusting the top with some rame and some


4/18

french fries. Yum.

3) Savory Pancakes: This is something that is new to the street food scene, but they have

been doing very well. Its hot, griddled pancake that is topped with a sauce, a hotdog and

then more toppings. Some variations include: pizza, double cheese, sweet potato, and more.


5/18

4) Croquette: Fried Hotdog buns stuffed with cabbage, mayonaise and mustard. Yeahnot

my favorite.

7/18

5) Bundaeggi: Boiled Silkworm larva served in a cup. This is a nostalgic snack for older

people because when Korea was developing there wasnt enough food. Kids would often get

cups of these when they went with their parents in the park. The silkworm are boiled with

some soy sauce and sugar.

6) Tteokbokki: Spicy Rice cake noodles with fish cake. This is a Korean favorite dish.Tteokbokki is to Korean kids as what French Fries are to American kids. After school kids

would get cups of these (are you starting get that everything is served in cups?) and eat.

The sauce is a bit sweet and spicy.

There are many variations and toppings. You can add ramen noodles, eggs, beef, seafood,

fried tempura. The sauce is a good universal sauce for everything.

a) Tteokbokki Variation: Yenal tteokbokki: Old fashioned tteokbokki has thinner rice cake

noodles that is just fried in oil or coated in red chili flakes and fried in a iron wok. The rice

cakes are super crispy. The famous person to do this dish is over at Tongin market and she

has been doing it for over 20 years. She is a big hit with the Japanese tourists.


8/18

7) Hotteok: Leavened dough that can have some corn starch added to it is stuffed with

sugar, ground peanuts and sesame seeds and fried up till a caramel forms in the center.

The famous place for the sweet version is in Insadong. One stall in winter often has a line

20 people deep and they have 3 people working the little stall. They should be eaten hot, but

one must be careful because it is really frickin hot.

a)Variation: Vegetable Hotteok: In Namdaemun there is a woman that have been stuffing

up these hotteok with vegetables and sweet potatoe noodles for years. After they fry up she

brushes it with a fruit infused soy sauce. In wintertime it is the place to go and she has a

queue around the block. The rumor is that she makes over 1 million dollars a year from

these fried snacks (she sells them for 90 cents a piece)


9/18

8) Soondae: This is intestine stuffed with rice or sweet potato noodles and pigs blood. Its

basically a blood sausage served with some steamed liver and lung.


10/18

a)Variation: Soondae Bokkum. The blood sausage is cut and stirfried in a spicy sauce.

9) Bongeobbang- Fish shaped bread stuffed with red bean paste. The fish signifies good

luck and kids like the shape of it. These days the popular thing to do is make little fish

cakes.

/The area of Myeongdong is where you get the fierce competition for street stalls. The only

way to survive is to grab the attention of shoppers before someone else does. New concepts

start here and either take off or die quickly.

10) Tornado Potato: This is a whole potato that is cut using a special slicer to make a fry

that makes it look like a giant spiral. This has become a pretty popular item on the street

and the potato can be coated in salt, cheese, and other flavorings. When they first opened,

the originators closely guarded it from people taking pictures. Now there are many people

that do this but people still like the taste of the potato.


11/18

11)Hotba: This is fish paste that is rolled around a wooden chopstick and fried. They

sometimes wrap it around a sausage or crabstick. It is then topped with mustard and

ketchup.

12) Odeng: Fish cake on a stick and boiled in broth. This is a wintertime favorite dish.

After having the fish cake you have a cup of broth.

13) Walnut Bread. Really cool machine that bakes batter in a walnut shaped mold, puts a

walnut on top and then red bean paste, flips it and bakes it fully around. These things can

get quite hot. The original area for this was Cheonan because this area is rich in Walnuts.

oven. The best ones leave the yolk a little runny.

19. Cup Chicken: This is crisp chicken tossed in a spicy sweet sauce and mixed with fried

20. Cocktails in a Bag: This place called vinyl does cocktails in a bag in all different colors.

21. Bbokki: This is a sugar caramel candy with baking soda so it is really crispy. Its
