Bunsik (Korean: 분식; Hanja: 粉食) is a generic term used to refer to inexpensive Korean dishes available at bunsikjeom (분식점) or bunsikjip (분식집) snack restaurants.[1] Since the term bunsik literally means "food made from flour," foods such as ramyeon (라면; noodle soup) and bread can be considered bunsik. However, the modern definition of the term also includes other dishes served at bunsik restaurants that can be had in large portions at low prices, such as gimbap, tteokbokki, ramyeon, rabokki (tteokbokki with ramyeon), sundae, eomuk, twigim, and others. There is a representative Korean bunsikjip called "Gimbap-Cheonguk" (English: Gimbap Heaven) [2] In Korea, there are many general snack bars selling everything from simple food to a full meal menu.
