One thing you'll find plenty of when you come to Seoul is street food! Food trucks, stalls and carts selling a variety of foods are everywhere. Coming from a small town in the Midwest, this was quite a change for me since we only had the occasional food truck here and there. However, having some quick and delicious food on the go while exploring, shopping and wandering around was something I quickly got used to. It's one of the things I will miss most when I leave. Now that it's winter time and the weather is particularly unpleasant, there are a couple of popular street foods that really hit the spot on a cold day.
My absolute favorite winter street food is bungeoppang. It is a combination of the words bungeo ("carp") and ppang ("bread") and named for its fish shape. However, you won't find any fish in these tasty snacks! They are usually filled with sweet red bean, but you can also find pastry cream, chocolate, ice cream or even pizza filling. My personal favorite is the cream one!
