This cafe stays open well after midnight, so one can head there without worrying about closing hours. From the entrance, the interior impresses with artistic objects with antique and retro-style motifs. There are plenty of nice backgrounds to take pictures against, so this is a famous spot for social media photography as well. The ambience is like that of a comfortable hideaway, perfect for conversations in small groups, thanks to paintings and objects that adorn the corners and the walls. The most famous of them all is the clouds, which hang from the ceiling and create the ambience unique to this cafe. The signature menu here is coffee and smoothies. It also serves croffle and cake dishes as accompaniments.

The origins of Uijeongbu’s budaejjigae (Sausage Jjigae) tradition trace back to a humble food stall, now operated by the third generation. As budaejjigae grew in popularity, this modest stall evolved into a dedicated restaurant specializing in the iconic dish.

The word “budaejjigae” has two parts: “budae”, or military unit, and “jjigae,” a dish made by boiling ingredients and stock in a pot. It originates from the post-Korean War period, where processed meat from US Army bases was made into a jjigae with vegetables, glass noodles, ramyeon, and the like. While the exact origin of the dish is difficult to establish, a strong tradition of sausage jjigae was established in Uijeongbu, thanks to its proximity to US Army bases. These geographical characteristics created today’s Uijeongbu Budaejjigae Street. Starting with Odeng Sikdang, the origin of the street, restaurants specializing in sausage jjigae entered the area, creating a specialized street and a landmark of Uijeongbu.
