One of my favorite Korean foods is spicy rice cake, or ddeokbbokki (떡볶이). I eat a lot of street food, but on this particular weekend, I wanted to do it up.

In Sindang dong, there is a famous Mabockrim (마복림) shop. It’s famous because a long time ago, a television food program asked the restaurant owner what the secret was to her delicious dish. She answered, “Nobody knows. Not even my daughter-in-law!”

You can get there using Line 2 or Line 6, Sindang station Exit 7. Go straight and turn right at the Olleh. You’ll see the restaurant on the left.
