Tips from parents who've been

💡 There is no indoor seating — it is takeaway only. 💡 Freshly fried, they are very hot, so let them cool well before giving them to a child.

Tips for going with kids

💡 The honey chapssal kkwabaegi is chewy and sweet, and the one children take to most easily. 💡 The red bean and sweet potato doughnuts have soft fillings that younger children manage well. 💡 The injeolmi kkwabaegi is heavily dusted in soybean powder, so bring wet wipes.

Travelling in Korea

💡 Chapssal kkwabaegi is a classic street snack found in traditional markets all over Korea. 💡 Unlike an ordinary doughnut it uses glutinous rice flour for a chewy texture, and Koreans treat it as a national snack. 💡 The injeolmi kkwabaegi borrows the soybean powder from injeolmi rice cake, a good way to try Korean dessert culture.
