  1. 테일러커피Cafe · HongdaeYeonnam <Tailor Coffee>. Signature blend Purple Rain. The texture is smooth, and acidity and sweet notes work well together. These days I rarely order single origins anywhere. If I am deliberately traveling far to enjoy
  2. 티로아Cafe · HongdaeInsadong <Tiroa>. The interior and atmosphere are ordinarily modern, but both the white-tea blend “Night Light” and oolong blend “Oolong Breeze” are delicious enough to change your expression. Compared with their appeara
  3. 파델라Western · HongdaeHongik Univ. Station <Padella>. Pasta should taste like something impossible to make at home, while remaining reasonably priced. I love it, yet choosing where to go is surprisingly difficult. A friend's suggestion brough
  4. 파롤앤랑그 연남본점Cafe · HongdaeYeonnam <Parole & Langue>. A name as memorable as Sangsu's “Morals and Norms.” I ordered the signature chestnut pie and milk tea. Both use a little cardamom, adding a light chai-like spicy layer. This makes them pleasant
  5. 풀리너마이트Western · HongdaeHongdae <Fullynamite>. Pakota Burger. Romaine, grilled onion, bacon, pineapple, pork neck, ricotta, onion sauce, American cheese, and mayonnaise. Delicious. Every ingredient speaks for itself, yet they work in synergy. T
  6. 하이아시아Japanese · HongdaeYeonnam <High Asia>. A stateless bistro by chef Lim Hae-seop, a veteran of the dining scene. The more stimulating dishes were also well made, but I especially recommend the charred eggplant with herring and the agedashi
  7. 하카타나카Japanese · HongdaeHongik Univ. <Hakata Naka>. Limited-quantity Tanaka set. As the photo shows, the portion is substantial: grilled mackerel, tonkatsu, karaage, and tonjiru. The seasoning was strong overall, but I am someone who thinks res
  8. 하쿠텐Japanese · HongdaeYeonnam <Hakuten>. Impossible without arriving at opening. It is indeed Seoul's best among places making ie-kei ramen. Salt is pushed to the razor's edge in its role of amplifying flavor and aroma, yet nothing feels miss
  9. 항저우 샤롱바오Chinese · HongdaeYeonnam <Hangzhou Xiaolongbao>. Strictly speaking it is shengjianbao rather than xiaolongbao, though Hangzhou often sells them without rigid distinction. Delicious. I recommend the side coated in egg. The mapo tofu is no
  10. 헬로인디아Other · HongdaeYeonnam <Hello India>. I ordered mutton palak with plain naan, a curry of lamb in spinach sauce. I had thought there were few worthwhile places to eat near Yeonnam Space, but I walked into this one without plans and left
  11. 호랑티티Cafe · HongdaeHongik Univ. <Horangtiti>. April-only Cherry Blossom Matcha Latte. The matcha itself seems quite good, and the cherry-blossom syrup is used with restraint, leaving a long sweetness. The pink granules on top are pink pepp
  12. 후레쉬Japanese · HongdaeHongik Univ. Station <Fresh>. A tiny five-seat shop. The shoyu is excellent. Even the special ramen, loaded with chashu, is KRW 10,000; regular shoyu ramen is KRW 7,500. The menma and ajitama are good, and the soup is ge
