Silly Menu Item names at Cafe Mou

Went to Cafe Mou in Apkujeong. They had such ridiculous names and captions on their menu I had to blog about it.



Um yea, all stylish people in NY loves traditional. Say what? Just tell me if this Caesar has chicken in it. Such a useless caption. Also, did they think traditional meant the same thing as salad? So confused...

To Cafe Mou's defense, the Woman in Love Senegal was bomb. Should this be "Woman in Love with Senegalese Man" or "Senegalese Woman in love with white man"?

Exhibit A Woman in Love Senegal:


Also in their defense, it was one of the prettiest cafes I have been to.

Italian Date night

I have been scared of Italian in Korea because I hear that the italian is sweet here. I'm not a fan of mixing savory with sweet (except in 떡볶이/tteokbokki/rice cakes in chilli sauce).

However, I was craving red wine like woah so we decided to go to Italian around 압구정 (Apkujeong, like the Soho of Seoul I would say). The food was tasty! Good date night with my Seoul mate Brian. I know, really bad pun, I am a cornball.

Salad with poached egg:

Bread, not brownies as my date had hoped

Gnocci, strange bc the gnoccis were so big but executed well. The gnoccis were light and airy like pillows of potato goodness...

Spaghetti Vongole, good amount of clams

Sooooo good...chocolate fondant. We almost licked the plate
