Where to eat in Seoul, South Korea! 🌟 Gaeseong Traditional Dumpling House is a Michelin guide recommended place serving massive (and we mean massive) North Korean style dumplings 🌟 @salthouse_deli for cured meat sandwiches 🌟 Myeongdong Kyoja Main Store - this is another Michelin rec and be sure to go to the store just a block and a half down the street to avoid lines. They only have 4 menu items and each dish is wonderful, the dumplings are like Korean soup dumplings 🌟 @borgo_hannam is serving amazing Italian food with a chef right from Italy 🌟 We tried raw marinated crabs at Yangbandaek with @maxnotbeer 🌟 @cheongsudang_ is a buzzy spot for their stone cooked soufflés. This was an amazing dessert but we had to wait about 30 minutes 🌟bhc CHICKEN is legit! Get the spicy cheese powder and “the sauce” 🌟 Gwangjang Market is where you can find the famous hand cut noodles, mung bean pancakes, twisted donuts and more 🌟 @eggdrop.official - this is where you’ll find the Instagram famous library but loved this sandwich on garlic bread 🌟 @osteriaorzo is making a rich and creamy uni spaghetti that we’ll crave 🌟Cafe Onion is the trendy TikTok viral spot, it didn’t live up to the hype for us 🫠 🌟 영천영화 address: 3 Dosan-daero 90-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea for a famous barbecue dinner! • • • • #sistersnacking #sistersnackingseoul #seoul #seoulfood #seoulfoodie #seouldfoodguide #southkorea #southkoreatravel #koreanfood #gwangjangmarket

This market has become extremely popular after being featured in Netflix. So expect to see big crowds of tourists trying to catch the best photo shot or posting in social media. It is a nice introduction to Korean traditional food without breaking the bank. The flavours are authentic and the vendors are very nice. You can select from may stalls as they all sell pretty much the same - the ones featured in Netflix are the ones with the biggest crowds and by personal experience they are not necessarily better in flavour, just more popular. This market opens until 10pm (11pm some stalls) so if you come past 8pm you will definitely have less people and enjoy the experience more.

Kalguksu (Handcut noodle). This stall was featured on Netflix's Street Food episode 6. Located at Gwangjang Market, it can be easily spotted with its Netflix posters (self printed). The stall also serve dumplings (mandu) and buckwheat noodles too. Taste wise, I have not tried other stalls that serve the same offering but going by how bustling almost every stall is, I believe every local has their favourite. This is quite a hearty meal too. So leave some space for other street food such as the Mung Bean pancake, meatball pancake and the hotteok.

A must visit for any tourist to Seoul for authentic Korean street food, a lot of the stall owners will call out to you to try their food and they mostly sell the same things: tteokppoki, sundae (blood sausage), kimbap and noodles. Take your pick and sit down at the stall to eat. I loved the Mandu at the entrance of the market, go look for them, they're friendly and their dumplings are good. Note that the mung bean pancake stores are closed at night so if you want to go, go in the day!

One of the must to go place in Seoul. I had a blast there, not the mention the Netflix's Street Food Seoul episode is filmed in this place. Tried several Korean street food dishes there, and really love it: tteokbokki, soondae, mung bean pancake, and maekgolli. And what can I say, all is good and authentic, the taste is just right. My favorite part is the combination of soondae, tteokbokki sauce, completed with with maekgolli, boom! And I like how most of the shop has a English menu.
