Seoul Dduk-Jip

Seoul Bakery
2897 W Olympic Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90006
(213) 382-6196



Have you been to dduk-jip? Dduk means rice cake and jip means house. So it's basically Korean bakery. If you're craving dduk or kimbob, come by this place. Not a restaurant but quick pick-up & affordable stuff are waiting for you all. Especially, this place opens from 3am 'til 7pm, so if you're leaving early for work, trip, picnic, etc, this place is open for you.


Hm~ look at that~ The round kind has filling called kkul (honey, sometimes sugar + sesame seeds) and the bottom ones are called jeol-pyun, rice cake patties.



Woooooooooow... handy size of dduk, $1 for two of them. The middle ones have black beans and other nut kinds and the yellow ones are, I think, pumpkin kind.



Look at those kimbob!!!!!



A tray I ordered, $25, supposely feeds 15~20 people, actually fed more than that.



Ah~ just like shopping in candy store!
Price varies from $3.50 and above per each.



They also do caterings for birthday, anniversary parties and wedding banquettes.



This is the place.


in this mall on Olympic Blvd.

The short Korean man working there is rude to customers. My first visit there... he was literally pulling up his pants and zipping/buttoning while talking to me. By then I did not like his natural tone/speed of voice. Then I hear him chewing his rice cake soup in a dog's bowl. wtf. I think Koreans in general can be very rude and perform poorly when it comes to service. Is that the way one should come to work? half dressed? Is that the tone of voice one should speak to those that make his living even possible?
Also, while I was waiting for my order (in which I highly regret buying), a grandma walked in n looked through the fridge to get herself some plain DUKK and I guess she was taking some time deciding on it...and the Korean short man sorta yelled at her and said "What is there to pick. They all look the same and were made on the same day. And the grandma couldn't even hold her head up. This man will be punished. If I have to I can stand in front of this place and stop every customer that tries to go there.
