Jecheon Ppalgan-odeng is a well-known snack shop inside Jecheon Jungang Market, known for fish cakes served in tteokbokki sauce instead of a spicy broth. Its signature flavor comes from thin, double-layered fish cakes soaked in a thick sauce.

Three fish cakes are threaded onto a wooden skewer and served in a paper cup, and you can also order garaetteok rice cake on the skewer with them. Fried snacks that pair well with the spicy sauce are sold here too.
