Culinary Profile
Closely associated with PNB, Jeonju's oldest bakery (founded in 1951), whose handmade choco pie became so popular near Hanok Village that dozens of competing bakeries now sell their own version. It is a practical way to understand Jeonju eating culture, especially for first-time visitors comparing regional styles.
