Hanbang Jeonju Bean Sprout Soup, Geumjeon Branch - Good price and delicious radish kimchi... fantastic.


 I haven't though still this kind of restaurant still exist in this kind of busy street. The kimchi reminded me of the old restaurant I used to go long ago. Yes, just a little big outside of Seoul, you can find a good restaurant like this... Yes, the high price and big expense are reflected on the price of the end products....

 Hongdae Orange Guesthouse



 I reserved this through 'Hotels.com' which supports Paypal. 8.14 USD for 8-male dorm. Total 9.86 USD including tax and fee. 


Location



 I found several men staying in a longer term. And less regulations or rules to keep comparing with other places. And I felt comfortable. Some might prefer comfort to cleanness.  


 

 The location is a good thing in this guesthouse(hostel). Very easy to find. Very conspicuous building. Especially the big dog at the yard is hard to forget. 




 Here the bed has everything you need including curtain. Considering the price... yes it's really good.


 Here, travel tips.


 I think one of the most important things is to meet good room mate, fellow travellers, which affect your mood in the day. Yes, it's very important. 


 So, which do you put in priority is upto you. If you really want to meet a good fellow traveler, you can consider the following aspect. Those who prefer cleanness are more sensitive than those who put convenience and the price value first. You need to read the review carefully. If a place is above 8.0 in hotels.com apps, I consider it a candidate. And then the price and the bed next. You might depend on the luck totally.

 More pictures


 : You can find everything you need there... just the facilities are not new.. but not so bad. 









 : Just the building itself is very old. I don't see any need to upgrade the facilities because that means the clients have to pay more than this... 


 










 The breakfast is really good thinking of the price. Yes, it's fantastic. In this price, no breakfast is common. 









 As you see, you can find many efforts done for the convenience. And also outside table...

Bupyeong Jokbal(Glazed Pigs' Feet) - Jokbal I ate in the street of Bupyeong Jokbal 


 About the street, I came to know from a local Korean in Japan who I met while travelling. And it was quite famous among Japanese.

 A Korean recommended this place



 'Wonsanmyeonok' is a name of a restaurant located in Nampodong, Busan, which was quite popular among Koreans and also Japanese. And the owner of the restaurant recommended this place. 


The Location, Bupyeong Jokbal



 The price... high... for the food in my opinion. It was about 15000 won per 1 person.  




 The Soju, Daesun is not usual in Korea especially in Busan as far as I know. Recently I come to see the brand name more frequently. Personally I am not that interested in Soju. I like more Makgeoli than Soju...

 Let's look at the Jokbal


 : Now I don't remember the exact name of the Jokbal meal... It had the name 'frozen or cool' inside of the name... Yes, it was cool... or cold, not hot.. And it was good... Very delicious. 







 : If you like Jokbal, you should come here. The amount is enough for two people... Total I paid 34,000 won for this. About 32 USD.

New Generation of Hoddeok, differentiation and diversification... Seomyeon The Hoddeok.


 Hoddeok is a kind of pancake with something delicious inside. It can be called 'a Korean way pancake'. I used to eat when I was young. And I was surprised to find it still on the street and becoming diverse... And I came to see the Hoddeok-specialized shop... amazing.

 I came across this shop while walking



 The Hoddeok. How long have it been here? Here only two persons working there... which reminds me of the chimney bread in Budapest, Hungary. And the price was very good... 1,000 won(1USD) and 1,300 won(about 1.2 USD). I ordered 2 different kinds of Hoddeok there.


Location





 This was the only place named "The Hoddeok"

















 I guess, the ordering system with a machine is becoming standard. Now even the small Hodeok House use a machine... Yes... the world is changing fast. The two workers there can focus on making hoddeok. The machine deals with accounting and so on...

 Food?


 : Kkul Hoddeok(Honey pancake) and Kokonut Hodeok. The first one costs 1,000 won and the other costs 1300 won. The first one is close to the traditional hoddeok which I used to eat.





 : Only with 2,300 won, I enjoyed small street food. I wonder now it is a popular place now?
