Samsong Bakery (Jungang-ro Branch) 삼송빵집 중앙로점
Daegu · Jung-gu Old Downtown · Cafe
Daegu's best-known bakery chain began here, and its signature tongoksusu-ppang, a soft bread stuffed with corn kernels and cream, is the loaf everyone talks about. The shop is small, so most people buy a bag and eat it while walking through the old downtown alleys. The shelves also hold red bean buns, pastries and sandwiches.
Corn bread is best eaten the same day, and there are often lines at lunchtime. A bag costs only a few thousand won, and cards are accepted. It makes a good souvenir to share with friends or take back to a hotel room.
Walk two minutes from Jungangno Station on Subway Line 1. There is no parking, so arrive by transit or on foot. (Show a driver: 삼송빵집)
