I had a happy Mother's Day brunch at this cafe known for its pretty plating and seasonal menu, where the dishes had real depth of flavor and the meat pie was quite hearty.
I would recommend this spot for a healthy, home-style Korean meal, especially when I want simple food over brunch, and it also feels easy for dining alone.
I visited a new antique art shop in Yeonnam, a quiet space for objects across eras and regions, where hearing the owner's stories made each piece hold my attention longer, making me feel like craft was slipping into everyday life.
I visited a new rice omakase spot where rice gets the spotlight, enjoying a course built around three rice varieties, including soft Suhyangmi rice and lovely Yeoju Jinsangmi rice, complemented by generous tteokgalbi and good kimchi.
I visited this Korean barbecue place, better known for its doenjang jjigae, and found it to be a memorable dish with deep umami and plenty of fragrant ingredients, making it worth coming back for.
I finally found a latte I really liked at this terrace café overlooking Yeonhui-dong, where the breeze felt fresher than air conditioning and it looked nice for working late.
I found this café deep in an alley, blooming with roses, which felt like a little Seoul escape with its calm vintage interior and beautiful rose views, making the afternoon feel almost unfair.
I visited this book café inside the National Assembly, which offered spring in full view with cherry trees in full bloom below and a rooftop view stretching to N Seoul Tower, making me not quite ready to leave.
