Well-being Food Jeokdang

Opened in the fall of 2019, this cafe offers trendy flavors in dishes that use red bean as their main ingredient. It was launched by OTD Corporation, a company renowned for space curation projects such as Arc & Book and the Seongsu Federation. With the slogan ‘capture the right moment,’ Café Jeokdang sells snacks made from red beans. Red beans are known to be rich in iron, and help regulate anemia. They are also rich in vitamin B1, which breaks down fat and thus can contribute to weight loss. Chef Kim Taehyeong, who won second place in the cooking survival TV show ‘Master Chef Korea season 2,’ took charge of operations. Made with red beans boiled for long hours and additional ingredients, its main dish, Yanggaeng, offers the unique flavor of Jeokdang. It has attracted attention thanks to its creative reinterpretation of the traditional yangggaeng – offering varieties such as chestnut yangggaeng, green tea yangggaeng, milk tea yangggaeng, hazelnut yangggaeng, black sugar yangggaeng, orange yangggaeng, raspberry yangggaeng, and pistachio yangggaeng. Its yanggaengs provide a new flavor by combining healthy and delicious ingredients. Of the beverages available, the red bean latte is definitely one of the most popular. People of all ages can enjoy it, as it is not too sweet and has a flavor that mildly spreads in the mouth. In addition, the café offers a range of other beverages including fruit tea and Elderberry Ade. Sit in front of a glass window with a clear view of the bamboo trees outside, and taste the sweet red bean jelly served on a ceramic plate. It's a great way to spend a quiet time in a crowded downtown area. Try yangggaeng served on a ceramic plate while seated in front of a big glass window overlooking bamboo trees. It is a perfect spot to enjoy the slow passage of time in a bustling city.
