Teumsae Ramen is one of the most popular fusion spicy food restaurant in Seoul. ‘Teumsae’ means a narrow space between walls. This restaurant is really small, but people always line up around this place. It is so popular, its headquarter is in Myeongdong and today it has more than 100 branches in Korea such as Gangnam, Hongdae, Lotteworld, etc.
With its unique fusion dishes like GgaeTteok (Ramen), Salad Noodle, Spicy Tteokbokki (rice cakes in hot sauce), you will not regret what you tried. However, be careful when you try Bbal-Gae-Ttuk(Bbal means red, Gae means egg, Ttuk means rice cake in Korean! so It includes these three ingredients.) This is so spicy that you will give up after having a sip.
Also, there is a cultural aspect in this store. You can leave any messages on the restaurant’s wall. There are thousands of papers on which people’s story is written. “Finally I’m going to university”, “Now we’re married!”, “Ramen is so spicy that I can’t eat the rest”, etc.
