Most people credit this shop as the grandmother of the Sindang-dong tteokbokki alley, open since 1953. Rice cakes and add-ins go into a pan and simmer right at your table. You order a set by headcount, and rice cakes, noodles and dumplings arrive together. The sauce is hot with a sweet backbone, a retro flavor.
