Snack shops

Bunsik shops are small, bright, cheap and open all day. Everything on this page is made to be eaten standing up or at a narrow counter, and nothing on it needs a companion. This is where to go when you are alone and hungry at an odd hour.

Ordered from the same page of the menu

This is one line of a longer book

The chapter this came from runs to sixteen pages, and the allergy chapter next to it explains what the nineteen leave out. Both are in the guidebook.
