Sindang-dong, a neighborhood located just east of Dongdaemun that's been a part of the city's history for several decades, is making a comeback in popularity as of late! Besides the Jungang Market and Tteokbokki Town, signature spots of Sindang-dong, there are so many other corners and places to discover.
One of them is Ssajeon Street, where ssajeon refers to stores selling rice and grains . These stores are lined up, and the rice sacks in front of them exude a unique and charming appeal.
For 1-4. Ssajeon Street’s locations is Heungin-dong, Jung-gu, Seoulby Subway Line 6, Sindang Station, Exit 12.

If you prefer a crispy texture, go for the regular roti. If you like a softer texture, try the roti with egg and cheese.🧀🤍

Enjoy Cafe Time with Beautiful Views at Seoullo PH
This place is a hidden gem with a great view. Although the prices are on the higher side, the view makes it worth visiting again. The cheesecake was not too sweet, which I liked, and the drinks were decent. Overall, it was above average. The atmosphere is nice, and given the prices, it would be a good place to visit on a special occasion.

Lione Coffee in Euljiro
A trendy espresso bar located in the hip Seun Daerim Shopping Mall
🤭 It's a specialty espresso cafe (as expected from a professional bar, the prices for standing and table seating are different). The coffee is delicious. I tried the egg tart, and it was also very good. The store's atmosphere shows a lot of attention to detail. I want to come here often 😀

Ugly Baker's Bagel | Seoul's Trendy New Bagel Cafe
Today's Bakery
🚦Ugly Baker's Bagel
Located at Sindang Station, this is a recently popular bagel shop 🥯
The store is incredibly charming,
Housed in a two-story detached building,
Complete with a lovely garden and a second-floor terrace.
Enjoying a meal in the garden on the first floor is delightful,
And the store is filled with beautiful spots and is spacious, perfect for photo ops,
Any random shot could become a "life shot",
Plus, the second floor has small rooms,
Making it a comfortable place to have loud conversations with friends.
Menu Review:
Plain, Salt
Tomato, Peanut Jam Blueberry, Raspberry Compote - I tried a variety...
The flavors didn't live up to the cafe's luxurious decor,
They were quite ordinary,
Leaving me a little disappointed.☹️

Comfort Food Seolleongtang In Seoul
#cherryblossom2024
Junglimjang Seolleongtang
Address - 468 Jungnim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea
Ambiance/Facilities - simple homely restaurant
Highlights - best ox bone soup
Avg. Price per Person - $15/pax
Rating - 4/5
Seolleongtang is one of soul's most popular comfort food and seolleongtang means ox bone soup. A famous place for this dish is a homely restaurant called Junlimjang Seolleongtang, where this soup is cooked traditionally and served in a hot stoneware to you. The broth is rich and not too heavy and nutritious. Season it with some salt, spring onions and pair it with their delicious kimchi, and this would make the perfect comfort food. I would highly recommend Junglimjang Seolleongtang.

DELICIOUS HALAL NOODLES IN MYEONGDONG
Address - On the same street with Kampungku and Bakso Bejo
Ambiance/Facilities - Good !
Highlights - Black Bean Sauce Noodle
Avg. Price per Person - 12k ₩
Rating - 5/5
#tripblazers #myeongdong #halalfood
If you had enough of Kampungku meals, then try this restaurant instead.
Not sure of the name as it is in Hangul.
We had dumplings with vegie fillings (such a let down as we thought it is with meat), haha definitely our mistake for not checking with the resto.
And then, the noodles came and i swear, the taste was so yummy !
How could a simple dish like this with no meat or whatsoever, only with rich black bean sauce all over the noodles could taste really good and flavorful, i truly had no idea !
