Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Walnut Tree (Hodunamu) offers a taste of authentic Korean snacks and dishes, with a particular focus on traditional rice cakes (tteok).

Reviewers consistently praise the Japchae for its quality, and the rice cakes are noted for their genuine flavour, often with a savoury, sesame oil, and peanutty profile.

The walnut candy is also a standout, described as not too sticky or sweet.

We note that popular items like kimbap and certain tteok varieties, such as the red bean one, tend to sell out by early afternoon, so an earlier visit is advisable for the best selection.

While the authenticity is appreciated, a recurring point of feedback is the pricing, with several reviewers finding the portions small for the cost, especially compared to prices in Korea.

Despite this, the homemade feel of items like the radish kimchi and the overall quality encourage repeat visits.

Verdict: Worth a visit for authentic Korean snacks and the highly-rated Japchae, but be prepared for premium pricing and visit earlier in the day for full availability.

What customers say

Walnut Tree (Hodunamu) is praised for its authentic Korean rice cakes, with specific mentions of Yeongyang Chal Tteok, Mujiggae Tteok, and Honey Tteok, though some find the mugwort flavor in Mujiggae Tteok too subtle.

Their Japchae, walnut candy, and Kimbap (especially ebi mayo and chicken) are also highly recommended.

A recurring concern is the pricing, which many customers find high for the portion sizes, and items often sell out by mid-afternoon, particularly Kimbap and popular rice cake varieties like red bean.
