Street markets are a great experience and definitely a unique perception of the place you are visiting. I could feel the spirit of the place through your post, Nancie!

I love food markets! They are always such an adventure. I’ve never been to Korea but I would love to try tteokbokki – sounds delicious.

This would be a great way to try a lot of different Korean dishes. I haven’t been to Korea but love visiting food markets like this wherever I go.

I really like that lunch deal where you can sample foods from many different stalls. When I’m visiting a place, I really like a try a variety instead of committing myself to one dish.

HI Nancie. I’ve never been to Korea, but when I do get there I would love to take in the Tongin Market. Thx so much for sharing.

Wow, I wish I’d known about Tongin Market when I was there. That lunch deal sounds like my idea of a heavenly meal. When I’m in a new place, I want to try EVERYTHING, and a deal like that would allow me to do that. Tteokbokki sounds good, but I’d take it without the hot sauce!

I love visiting markets when I’m travelling! It really gives you an insight to a different culture and cuisine. Tteokbokki seems interesting and I would love to try it some day and being a lover of spicy stuff too, my mouth is already watering haha! Thanks for sharing!

Hi, Kathy. (te – bo – ki) You could try the one with soy sauce instead of the chilis 🙂

In reply to Ruth. Hi, Jill. I think both of you would enjoy the Korean food scene. I agree, you would find plenty to eat without the spice!
