Another class trip and this time we went to Tongin Market (통인 시장). This market is famous with Dosirak Cafe (도시락 카페). Dosirak means bento/bekal/lunch box. Hah gitu. If I'm not mistaken, Running Man did film one of their episode here so... I was so excited upon reaching the place. Wohoo!
Tongin Market is close with the Blue House (청와대), The President House. We went to Blue House first as our first pit stop and make a tour around that area. And there's a lot of Chinese tourist! Our Chinese classmates are not that impressed with the amounts of their 'relatives'.ok no,just kidding. And handsome and pretty police are everywhere. Its Blue House, of course it needs a really tight security. But uh, abe Korea in police uniform is so handsome.
Okay so basically, in front of Blue House there's another building which is the Exhibition Hall for the tourist. There's a lot of things and mostly Historical things from previous ages, prime minister and until current Prime Minister. But since we already aiming for food, we didnt take too much attention in the Exhibition Hall. Everybody was so hungry and we off to Tongin Market after about 45 minute spend sometime at Blue House.
From Blue House to Tongin Market it took about 15 minute by walk. Oh, we took bus from Kookmin University to Blue House. Bus 7211. But of course you can take a subway. From Gyeongbokgung Station (Seoul Subway Line 3,Orange Color) take exit 2 and continue straight for about 700m. The market will be on your left. So what so special about this Tongin Market? What come into your mind when you heard bout market? YES FOODS!. Dosirak Cafe is open from 11a.m- 4.00 p.m only.
With 5,000 won, you will get a food tray and tradition coin. And the coin is 500Won each. Along the market there will be lots of food. LOTS OF FOOOD,so heaven~. You only can use the coin where there's Dosirak Cafe sign is stated. And one food cost only bout 1-2 coins. So,can you imagine how many foods you can have with 5,000 won? MANY FOODS. And for Muslims, you need to choose the foods wisely. Ask the ajumma how it makes, does it have meat or not?. Before I choose the foods, I usually go to stall that don't sell any meat. So the kitchen utensils are safe from any Meat or Pork. Tteokbokki (떡볶이) is the safest food. And I looove tteokbokki. Odeng (오뎅) is also safe to eat as it is only fish cake but it is no harm for you to ask how the soup was made from. Ahjummas and Ahjusshi here are so kind. They answered my questions patiently though I asked for many times.
