Sharing the Pujim Set 01 tteokbokki combo in Ansan: Yum Bbokki

On days when you're craving tteokbokki, you always end up wanting to eat a bunch of other things alongside it, right? Just tteokbokki alone feels a little lacking, you want fried snacks too, maybe some gimbap or other sides... and before you know it, the price adds up as you pile on one item after another.

The Pujim Set 01 I ordered at Yum Bbokki in Ansan

This time I went to Yum Bbokki in Ansan for tteokbokki. What I ordered was the Pujim Set 01! The name alone hinted at a generous portion, and once the food was actually laid out, I understood exactly why it's called the "Pujim" (hearty/generous) set.

First off, I loved the visual of a table filled edge to edge. The tteokbokki had that proper red sauce coating it — the kind of look that makes your mouth water just from staring at it.

The tteokbokki flavor and the fried snack pairing

The rice cakes were just chewy enough, and the sauce had soaked in nicely, so one bite hit with that sweet-spicy flavor spreading across your mouth. It wasn't a tteokbokki that was spicy just for the sake of being spicy — it had a flavor that kept you reaching for more, which I loved. And of course, tteokbokki wouldn't be complete without the fried snacks!

Dipping the crispy fried snacks lightly into the tteokbokki sauce — this combo simply cannot fail. The crunchy fried batter combined with the spicy tteokbokki sauce had me eating one piece after another.

And the biggest advantage of a set menu is definitely being able to enjoy several dishes at once.

A generous portion, even shared between two

Eating just tteokbokki alone can feel a little lacking, but with the Pujim Set you get to eat several things together, making it pretty solid for two people to share. The portion was more generous than expected too — at first I thought, "Can we really finish all this?"... but once we started eating, our chopsticks just wouldn't stop.

A bite of tteokbokki, then a fried snack, then back to dipping in the tteokbokki sauce.

Eating like that, before we knew it, the plates were emptying one by one. This is really the fun of Korean snack food — eating a little bit of many different things.

I think satisfaction is especially high if you visit when you're hungry.

It's that feeling of going in just to simply eat tteokbokki, ordering one set, and walking out completely full.
