Beautiful Spring in South Korea - Toppokei Mukshidonna at Anguk (Day 2, 05 Apr 2013)

This weekend I have to do my work at home :( My poor weekend... However, work is always endless... Therefore, I find some time to do my personal stuff and update today's post.

After we took our Hanbok look photos at Namsangol Hanok Village 南山谷韩屋村, we headed to Anguk 安国 to have our lunch. We passed by a girl high school then we reached the Toppokei Mukshidonna restaurant. This restaurant is very famous with the Toppokei (Korean stir fried rice cake), also it was introduced by many TV shows before. Once we reached the restaurant, the long queue was really shocked me! We waited about 10 to 15 minutes only reached our turn. In order to speed up and don't let the customers to wait for too long, while we were in the queue, the waitress asked us to place our order, so that when it reaches our turn, our food will be ready to be served.

Once the waitress brought us to our seats, the food we ordered was already served on our table, very efficient! I really like to eat the Toppokei at Mukshidonna restaurant although I normally don't eat spicy food. This lunch was the cheapest and most delicious Toppokei I tried in Korea! It is really worth to wait and queue in order to taste this delicious typical Korean cuisine :) If I visit Korea again, definitely I will taste the Toppokei in this restaurant one more time!
