Namdaemun Market peanut bread shop: ₩125 each by the box, Daesin

While wandering around Namdaemun Market, I stopped by Daesin Ttangkong-ppang Namdaemun Market branch (대신땅콩빵) for a snack. They sell 80 peanut breads for ₩10,000, so I went for the box. Each little peanut bread is packed with peanuts, so it was really nutty and delicious. Here's a Namdaemun Market snack that people of all ages will probably love.

Let me sum up the menu board prices.

• 20 pieces ₩3,000
• 45 pieces ₩6,000
• 80 pieces ₩10,000 (box)

Peanut smoothie

The peanut smoothie is ₩2,500. Looking at the menu board, they sell a wide range of peanut products beyond the peanut bread.

How many peanut breads should you buy for the best price?

The 80-piece box is the cheapest at ₩125 per piece. The more you buy, the lower the price per piece.

• 20 pieces ₩3,000: ₩150 each
• 45 pieces ₩6,000: about ₩133 each
• 80 pieces ₩10,000: ₩125 each

If you're eating with a group or want plenty, the 80-piece box is a solid choice. The menu board also says they can bake without peanuts, so if you want peanut-free bread, ask when you order.

The 80-piece peanut bread box for ₩10,000: how it tasted

What I bought this time was the 80-piece peanut bread box for ₩10,000. At first I thought 80 pieces would be a lot.

They're small peanut breads, so they're easy to pick up one at a time and also good for sharing.

How much peanut is in each peanut bread?

What I liked most about Daesin was how generously they put in the peanuts. Each little bread is packed with them, so it tasted nuttier the more I chewed. With peanut bread, it's disappointing when there are only a few peanuts, right?

At Daesin, though, the peanuts clearly make their presence known, and I liked that. The nutty bread plus the peanuts' own flavor meant that after one, my hand naturally went for the next. Personally, I find this kind of snack doesn't get old. If you like peanuts, I think you'll be happy with it.

Is Daesin peanut bread a snack for both kids and adults?

I think Daesin's peanut bread is an easy snack that few people would dislike. Peanut bread is a familiar food, and the small size means you can pick them up one by one without feeling weighed down. The nutty flavor comes through well, so I think adults would like it too. The size isn't too much for kids to share, either.

How to pay at Daesin Ttangkong-ppang

Daesin Ttangkong-ppang Namdaemun Market branch accepts several payment methods, including digital Onnuri gift vouchers and Zero Pay.
