Daehakro Vietnamese local restaurant🍜 Ban Suan
There is a restaurant in Daehakro that has authentic Vietnamese🇻🇳local flavors.
It is Banh Xuan, and you can taste various local Vietnamese dishes such as Bun Cha rice noodles, Hanoi-style fried nem, and duck dishes.
In particular, I had tomato tofu stir-fry as an appetizer, and it was the best to whet my appetite👍!! I finished it off with Banh Mi and condensed milk coffee!
The portions were generous and it was delicious.
You can enjoy the Daehakro streets through the large windows, and the store is spacious and comfortable, making it a perfect date spot! I recommend Ban Suan, which has a local Vietnamese feel and interior, for dates and gatherings🙆♀️

[Daehakro Gourmet] Porkland, where you can eat Jjigaegui, a dish that even Koreans don't know about
I saw it on YouTube and it looked delicious so I went there!
The soy sauce sauce was not spicy and it was very tasty, so I was very satisfied and ordered Bokkeumbap as well.
The rice is mixed with the broth from the soy sauce.
The jjigaegui is served with thinly sliced meat called chadolbagi, which is shabu-shabu style.
At the end, you can add udon noodles and enjoy it until the very end.

The curry sauce itself was so soft and delicious, and it was even better because you could adjust the spiciness! The price was not expensive, so it was good value for money, and the store was clean, so it was even better~~!

Daehakro Cake Restaurant
#August Travel Support Event
Petit Len, a famous cake restaurant in Daehakro, Seoul. It has two floors, so there are many seats, so you can rest comfortably.
They were selling various cakes, and the cakes were soft and
sweet, so they went very well with iced Americano.
Since it is a place where many MZs visit, the cakes may be sold out if you come late in the afternoon, so if you like cakes, I recommend visiting before lunch.
Daehakro Tteokbokki Restaurant
#August Travel Support Event
During my trip to Seoul, I visited Koyako, a famous tteokbokki restaurant in Daehakro. I felt great going down memory lane while eating instant tteokbokki in Daehakro. The owner was also kind, and I made it mildly spicy, so even I, a spicy food lover, was able to enjoy it very well.
I ordered cheese tteokbokki, and they put a lot of cheese in it.
It tasted just like the snack shop in front of the school that I remember from the past. They also serve draft beer, so it would be refreshing and good to drink it with the tteokbokki!
Hyehwa Daehakro’s moist hamburger restaurant ‘Narae Hamburger’
A hamburger restaurant located in Hyehwa, they have beef and lamb! You can choose half and half. When you order, they give you rice, soup, and a raw egg. The hamburger was moist and soft, and it didn't smell and was delicious. It was also nice that there were various sauces to eat with it. 😋

Do you like cafe tours? I will introduce you to a cafe in Hyehwa-dong near Daehak-ro with a very pretty home-style atmosphere. This place, famous for its Vienna coffee and milk tea, is already quite famous as a hot place on Instagram,
The two seats by the window are so popular that I avoided people after ordering and took pictures of the inside of the cafe, but before the menus I ordered came out, one of the window seats opened up and I quickly moved.
At the cafe, I had a Vienna coffee and strawberry cake and bought milk tea to drink later. They were all not too sweet and had a nice fragrance, so they were really good. :)

The real Sundae “Sundae Shinrok”
I personally used to think, "Sundae is sundae. What's the difference?"
But after eating Sundaesinrok,
I thought, 'Sundae can be like this. It's delicious.' This is a place that made me think.
In the sundae, instead of the noodles we eat, they put various ingredients
and lightly grill it on a grill. It's delicious from the texture to the taste.
You can dip it in sauce and eat it with vegetables,
so it's even better.
Where to eat Japanese home cooking :: Dondon
Dondon is a Japanese restaurant where you can eat Japanese home cooking.
I visited the Hyehwa branch and tried it once.
You can boil the sukiyaki yourself and dip it in various sauces, so it was even fresher and better.
I hope you all visit there when you have the chance :)
