HoHo Walnut Cake & Mini Taiyaki Food Truck

Such a lovely treat! 7 pieces for $5 or 15 pieces for $10. They are the size of a whole walnut shelled, but this nut is filled with red bean and walnut pieces cooked inside a lovely batter. There use to be a whole half a walnut in each pieces per covid, but you got to cut cost somewhere while wanting to keep prices the same. You can find them on your way in or out of H-Mart on the North Road entrance in a cute cart. They also sell mini taiyaki stuffed with custard 10 pieces for $5. It's the same batter used for the walnut cakes, but wish it was cooked a little longer for a bit of crunch as it gets quite quickly with the oozing custard inside. Wither way, a delightful treat that I get to enjoy with my afternoon tea. Cash only!

Went to Kim's across the street and while I waited, came over here to try out their mini taiyaki and since I was here, the walnut cake. Love that these are super easy to snack on. All bite sized and delicious. The taiyaki has a custard filling, which I loved. I'm not the biggest fan of the walnut cake but it was my partner's favorite (he tried everything from Kim's cart as well). I mean, it's good, just that I like the sweeter things, hence the custard mini Taiyaki were great! I bought way too much so I heated them up in the toaster oven the next day and they were amazing! Nice and crispy on the outside and just oh so yummy. That just means I can get a lot more on my next trip. I had parked in the plaza across the street, but if you're only coming to HoHo, parking in the HMart lot will be closer 🤗

I’ve seen only good things about this place and my only regret is I didn’t try it sooner! This small food truck is located at the entrance to the Hanin Village plaza where H Mart is. They sell 2 items: 1) Mini Custard Taiyaki (10pc for $5) - slightly crispy exterior with creamy custard inside 2) Walnut Cake (7 pc for $5) - same exterior as taiyaki, but instead filled with red bean and walnuts. I really enjoyed these! The batter kind of reminds me of Cantonese bubble waffle, fluffy and not too sweet. Asian mom approved! My only wish is they had some cheap folding chairs or something so they can be enjoyed fresh on the spot! Cash only but TD bank is located in the plaza.

This food truck specializes in Korean street snacks and, to my knowledge, is the only place in Vancouver that sells freshly made Korean walnut pastries. According to the owner, the food truck operates at this location only on weekends, while during the weekdays, orders can be placed via Instagram and other platforms. Keep this in mind if you're planning to visit.

Came on a Thursday for some of their walnut cakes and taiyakis. Everytime I'm in the area and they are open I have to get them as a snack. I got the walnut cakes which have walnuts and red bean in them and the taiyakis which have custard in them. What I like about their taiyakis is that they are never too sweet. The person who runs the stall also always gives extra which is so nice. Their price is always very reasonable for the amount you get. Keep in mind, you have to eat these fresh and don't leave them for a couple hours or even minutes.

Just purchased two $5, 7pcs mini Taiyaki (total 14pcs) And it is reheated taiyaki. So disappointed. Hope he sells only the fresh ones next time.

On the way leaving H-mart, I had to pull over for the Taiyaki. They only have the custard flavour for mini taiyaki but it’s already good enough. The food truck is kind cute too. My bf asked if I bite off the heads or the tails of the fish first. I told him the tails because the heads have more filling. I saved the best for last. Lol

Great place! 사장님 is very kind and friendly, walnut and 구어빵 are both so great! The owner really values the quality, he only sells fresh and warm ones!
