Gyeongju walnut pastry café for a Daereungwon picnic: Buja Hodu

Buja Hodu is a rice-dough walnut pastry shop at the entrance to Hwangnidan-gil in Gyeongju. Visiting with a baby on their first Gyeongju trip, the writer took the Best Mix (red bean, pea cream cheese, matcha) to a picnic spot near Daereungwon, and the low-sugar red bean filling with plenty of walnuts was the standout. It also sits far enough from the Hwangnidan-gil crowds to make a good breather on any Gyeongju itinerary.

Egg tart and fruit mochi open-run in Gyeongju's Hwangnidang-gil

Tareudang is a takeout-only dessert shop on the Meister High School lane off Hwangnidang-gil in Gyeongju, Gyeongbuk. The writer lined up at the 11am opening, bought peach, chocolate, and mango yogurt mochi plus an egg tart, then ate them in the shade near Daereungwon and back at the guesthouse. Mango yogurt mochi was the favorite, and the thin, chewy mochi skin and layered pastry tart shell stood out.
