MMM Salads


I think I mentioned this before, but living in Korea makes me realize how I actually enjoy eating salads. It's up there on the list of foods I miss.

This is the only salad I've found worth eating in Korea. The orange chicken salad from fifty cafe. I would eat this salad even in NY it's that good.

My favorite cafe



This is my favorite cafe/bistro in Seoul. Fifty Cafe in Apgujeong. I actually legit like their western food. Their salads and fries are yum. The decor is super hip and cute too.

Koreans Like these Toast Things



So Koreans like toast as a sweet or savory snack. The cafes all have these thick toast breads with either fake cheese or ice cream on them.

This one was from Cafe T, kinda bouji, and it was amazing. The inside is gooey with cinnamon and honey. nom nom nom.

I never got it before because at places like Cafe Bene and Tom n Tom's, the toast looks gross in the display. Also, you go to Cafe Bene to smoke cigarettes and eat waffles. Nothing else.

Cafe Bene toast below, do Koreans realize cheese shouldn't hang like that?

Coffeesmith



Coffeesmith in Garosugil is a drool worthy spot for people-watching in town.

As my friend put it "Coffeesmith makes my eyes go crazy."

The first floor is an open air space right to the street that allows ideal viewing of street passerbys. I would say some of the best people in Garosuil are probably not on the street but sitting right next to you in the cafe.

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.


Cafe T

Cafe T in 청담. Recommended.


Good ambiance.



Hot dog in a pancake. The pancake was good, the hot dog was good, the mayo and salad in the whole concoction not so much. Dissected and eaten separately it was tasty.

Soba salad. The dressing was spot on. I am going to crave this all the time now. Especially when I get back to NY.

The blueberry french toast was A++ The bread was soo soft and moist with good cinnamon flavor.

Brian makes me laugh.

Cafe in Itaewon

Yet another cafe in Itaewon. The main pasttimes of Koreans are to shop, go to a cafe, or go to a bar.

This cafe had pizza and because I am a fat girl I had to eat a pepperoni pizza with my americano.
