... Read moreIf you're planning to visit Mangwon Market in Seoul, here are some extra tips to make the most out of your street food adventure. The market is open most days, but it's best to come during lunchtime or early evening when food stalls are bustling with fresh offerings. One of my personal favorites is the fried chicken sold by various vendors. The portion size is generous, and the seasoning options range from classic Korean soy sauce to spicy flavors. Don’t miss the little piece of tteokbokki that often accompanies the chicken cup—it’s a perfect match! Also, keep an eye out for other sweet and savory snacks like traditional twisted donuts which are great for a quick bite. For something uniquely satisfying, I highly recommend the cheese hotteok, a Korean sweet treat with a delightful blend of gooey cheese and sweet filling, perfect for anyone who enjoys a combination of sweet and salty tastes. Navigating Mangwon Market can be a bit tricky since some stalls are tucked away in alleys or require you to take stairs down, so don’t hesitate to explore carefully and take your time. The market also sells refreshing ice cream at affordable prices, another great treat during your visit. Mangwon Market offers a genuine street food experience with affordable prices and authentic flavors. Whether you’re craving fried chicken, hotteok, or other Korean snacks, this market has something for everyone. Remember to bring cash, as many stalls may not accept cards, and try to visit on less crowded weekdays if you prefer a more relaxed stroll. Enjoy your culinary journey through Mangwon Market, a treasure trove of Seoul’s vibrant street food culture!
