## In short

Eungkeum Tteokbokki Yeonnam Branch is a 24-hour tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) restaurant in Yeonnam-dong, a short walk from Hongik University Station in Seoul. The order was the Eungkeum tteokbokki (7,900 won) at spice level 1 with added cabbage and mozzarella cheese, plus fried chicken (17,900 won) and pineapple sherbet (8,000 won) for a full chicken-and-tteokbokki course. At Eungkeum Tteokbokki Yeonnam Branch the cheese softens heat close to Shin Ramyun level, and the sherbet is the right way to finish.

## What the restaurant feels like inside and how fast tables turn over

Eungkeum Tteokbokki Yeonnam Branch was packed, but I watched the inner tables turn over once. They clear tables quickly, and honestly the turnover is pretty fast.

## How do you choose the tteokbokki spice level and toppings?

Eungkeum tteokbokki lets you pick options when ordering! Spice level, vegetables, fried toppings, and even extra cheese.

Eungkeum tteokbokki (₩7,900) / spice level 1 (Shin Ramyun-level heat) / added cabbage (₩1,500) / added mozzarella cheese (₩2,500).

Loaded with fish cake and rice cakes. They said the spice level was about like Shin Ramyun, so I added cheese to tone it down — and that turned out to be a very smart move.

## Fried chicken for 17,900 won: how big is a whole bird?

Fried chicken (₩17,900).

A seriously big bird, fried fresh in clean oil!

![Seasoning sauce served alongside the chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-tteokbokki-chicken-cheese-late-night/yeonnam-tteokbokki-chicken-cheese-late-night-19-1g3j9-900.webp)

Good call not splitting it half-and-half with seasoning. They also gave a generous portion of sauce on the side.

The chicken was fried a nice pale golden color, well-brined, and once tossed in the sauce — instant yangnyeom (seasoned) chicken 👏

## Pineapple sherbet, the cooldown after spicy tteokbokki

To finish it off, pineapple sherbet (₩8,000).

The sherbet was the perfect finish to put out the spicy fire — a Yeonnam-dong favorite with everything you need, right down to dessert.
