If you want to eat tteokbokki (spicy stir-fried rice cakes) in Jeju Island, and you are near Seogwipo Olle Market,

recommend a place!

Jeju dialect, modakchigi is

it means to do together,

It's a way to eat gimbap (seaweed rice rolls), jeon (Korean pancake), mandu (dumpling), kimmari (seaweed roll), tteokbokki, etc. together on one plate.

Not only Janggu Bunsik but also while walking around Seogwipo,

I found many places selling 'modakchigi'.

The location is just a little off Seogwipo Olle Market,

It would be nice to stop by if you get hungry while sightseeing.

Parking is difficult to find nearby, so feel free to park at Seogwipo Olle Market Public Parking Lot and

It would be better to walk.

I went there for lunch on the weekend and luckily there was one seat left so I didn't have to wait, but

It seemed like there were 1-2 teams waiting after that.

There are many takeouts for people waiting outside,

If you are going to eat there, it would be better to go inside and check if there is a seat first.

The interior is like this, and since we were sitting at the end,

There seem to be about 6 tables.

Janggu Bunsik Menu

The main menu is modakchigi (fried tteokbokki, fried food, gimbap, kimchi jeon, somen) comes in small/large,

You can also order fried tteokbokki, ramen, and gimbap in addition.

We were two people, so we ordered a small modakchigi.

Once you sit down, you'll get fish cake soup and pickled radish.

The fish cake soup, to my taste, was a clear seafood-based broth,

It was warm and delicious, especially because it was cold outside.

Finally, modakchigi came out!

It's only 12,000 won, but the portion is surprisingly large,

Two people could eat it to their heart's content.

The gimbap has simple ingredients, but it's rather sparse, so dipping it in the broth and eating it makes the broth soak in and harmonizes with the flavors in your mouth.

The tteokbokki is unusually fried tteokbokki. You have to eat it right away to taste the crispy fried texture, and after a while, the crispy texture disappears and you eat the tteok soaked in the broth. But it was delicious, both crispy and soaked, because the sauce was well-seasoned.

And the most unusual thing was that this kimchi jeon was in it. It wasn't particularly delicious when eaten together, but

It was fun to pick and eat each dish.

There were also kimmari (seaweed roll) and sweet potato fries, so I ate it all without getting bored.

The tteokbokki broth wasn't that spicy and was rather soupy, so when I dipped the somen in it, the seasoning was just right.

Overall,

I recommend it to those who want to experience modakchigi, which is unique to Jeju Island, and to those who are going to Seogwipo Olle Market!

It's not spicy, so even children can enjoy it.

(It seemed like a lot of locals came to eat there. There were many elementary school students.)

However, if there are about 3 teams waiting, it's worth waiting (the turnover is fast),

or you can take it out.

(I don't like waiting very much lol)
