Information

The facts

This is Hongdae's famous 20 years old rice cake snack place. Jopok refers to gangster. Rumor has it that an ex-gangster started a tteokbokki truck, which was so successful that he ended up opening it up into a restaurant.

A great place to try out original Korean spicy rice cake, twigim (fried food), sundae (Korean sausage) and odeng (fish cake).

It usually gets crowded during the night with hungry people.

I went there with my friends. We were hungry but wanted to eat something. It is very suitable for snack before or between the meals. We ordered Jopok tteokbokki, Sundae, Busan Odeng. We were very satisfied with that. You should have to order before you sit. In front of the door, you can order and pay. After that, they give you the dishes. The rotation is very fast do you don’t have to worry even there are lots of people waiting.
