Mugwort rice cake bread wins over a skeptic: Munhwa Bakery, Jongno
Munhwa Bakery is a hanok bakery in Jongno, Seoul, tucked between Ikseon-dong and Seosulla-gil near Jongno 3-ga Station. On a fall walk the writer stopped by again like clockwork to check out the mugwort rice cake bread, walnut bread, sweet potato bread, and injeolmi bread — and even her husband, who dislikes the smell of mugwort, admitted the mugwort rice cake bread was delicious. A solid stop for a bakery-hopping course around Jongno and Ikseon-dong.
