01 LOCAL TABLEHyeonseoni Cheonggye Jeukseok
Hyeonseoni Cheonggye Instant Tteokbokki is a casual Korean snack restaurant specializing in jeukseok tteokbokki, or instant tteokbokki cooked at the table. Instead of receiving a finished plate of tteokbokki, diners get a pan filled with rice cakes, fish cakes and other ingredients that are cooked together in a spicy-sweet sauce. The restaurant also serves classic Korean snack foods such as sundae, fried snacks and gimbap, making it easy to build a small Korean street-food meal around one table. For travelers, the appeal is the combination of interactive cooking and variety. A group can order instant tteokbokki, add fried snacks or sundae, and finish the remaining sauce with fried rice. The restaurant is located on Namdaemun-ro near the Euljiro/Myeongdong area, making it a practical stop for visitors exploring central Seoul.
