Hongdae bar with tuna mayo rice balls and jjagyechi: Cheongnyeon 1987

Cheongnyeon Dakbal 1987 Hongdae Branch is a chicken feet bar in Mapo, Seoul, a 5-minute walk from Exit 3 of Hongik University Station, with outdoor patio seats. Two servings of boneless soup chicken feet came with cheese, daechang (beef intestine) and cheese rice cake add-ins, plus a tuna mayo rice ball and jjagyechi (instant noodles with egg and cheese), and the long add-in list made ordering fun. For patio seating and a retro mood together, Cheongnyeon Dakbal 1987 Hongdae Branch is a solid pick.
