Chungchun - Cerritos

After this place merged with Mochinut, it is not good. If you are craving Myungrang Hotdog style Korean corn dogs, I strongly suggest you drive 15 minutes to the one at the Source rather than having them here. I came here frequently when they opened but was thoroughly disappointed today. -Dough- extremely floury, almost underdone? I had some bits with uncooked batter. The Korean corn dog is special because they use rice flour, but this is the flouriest, doughiest, breadiest Korean corn dog I 've ever had. NOT true to the Korean corn dog at all. -Flavors- they don 't automatically add the sugar which is trademark of the Korean corn dog. The half/half and potato were very underwhelming. The Hot Cheetos corn dog was also so oily and inedible. All in all, hard pass. The employees were courteous enough but the tables were very dirty and not maintained. Do yourself a favor and go to Myungrang (the OG in Korea) or get the frozen ones at H-Mart.

You can order online for takeout now so it's super convenient. Recommend adding sugar!

Overall, I really like this place. Before Covid, I came here alone a lot to have a quick bite between classes. My favorite is the potato mozzarella one! Add a little sugar, and eat it with spicy mayo. Super delicious and crunchy. Today I tried the hot cheetos with mozzarella and a Thai tea. Thai tea was decent, can't really go wrong with it. At first bite, the hot cheetos was pretty good! As I continued to eat through it, I got more and more tired of the taste and had to push through just to finish it. I wish that the cheetos were crunchier or had more of the typical flavor. Oh well, it was worth a try!

I wanted to grab some Korean corn dogs to pair with my tteokbokki but didn't want to drive too far. So I came across Chung chun that was surprisingly very close to the tteokbokki spot I was at! The Santa decoration for Christmas was cute and overall the staff and environment was nice! I would give the corn dogs at 4/5. They had a good variety of selections and I was very intrigued about the ramen corn dog since I've never seen it at other Korean corn dog places I've been to. The hot Cheetos was definitely my favorite and I would come here again!

Good place for Korean rice hotdogs. I've mainly had the Korean rice hotdogs from Myungrang and wanted to give Chungchun a try. I came by on a weekday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. The hotdogs came out pretty quickly after ordering and it was packaged in a nice box. There were quite a number of people there ordering mochi donuts as well. I got the ramen crusted hot dog, cheddar supreme, hot Cheetos mozzarella, and half and half mozzarella/hot dog. For all of them it ended up being around $20. They were solid hotdogs, but they weren't as good as Myungrang in my opinion. I would come back if I was nearby and really craving it, but would choose Myungrang over Chungchun.
