" I was craving 김밥 and 딱뽂이 so badly and was so worried it wouldn't be like eating it in Korea. Thank you for giving me exactly what I was craving and expecting! Sso Yummy deserves its name! "
Welcome to Sso Yummy, where we bring authentic Korean street food to Calgary's Chinatown. Our journey began as a small basement stall and grew into a beloved street-level shop in Hong Kong Plaza.

" Praises the Yummy Combo and Spam Kimbap, noting that Sso Yummy's takeout is neatly packed, the tteokbokki is spicy and satisfying, and the kimbap stands out for its warm, perfectly cooked rice, fresh seaweed and balanced fillings. Fresh, inexpensive and a healthier alternative to many fast-food options - two phat thumbs up! "
