(4 reviews)Running since 1982 in Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do, Bujatteokjip is known for a wide range of rice cakes made mostly with domestic ingredients — glutinous and non-glutinous rice, mugwort, red bean, and plenty of nuts. The sweets are not overly sweet; the nut-studded, chewy 'Buja Yeongyang-' is a local favorite. Many items sell out by afternoon, so visit in the morning for the best selection.
