When everyone in the family has slightly different food preferences, a buffet always feels like the best option since you can mix and match all kinds of dishes. This weekend, I headed to 쿠우쿠우 골드 부천점 (premium sushi buffet branch in Bucheon), a spot that’s been getting a lot of attention lately, for a family…
On evenings with a cool breeze like these, gathering with family for a warm meal felt like one of life’s simple pleasures. While comforting Korean food is always great, we wanted to spend an intimate evening in a cozy yet slightly more exotic setting, so we headed to 이태리재 (Italyjae), a wonderful restaurant tucked away…
I visited Biei three years ago during the Sapporo Snow Festival in winter. This time, I headed back because I wanted to see the summer scenery filled with flowers and lavender! I booked the small-group Biei bus tour operated by Sapporo Base Camp through My Real Trip, and what I liked most was that it…
With the lingering heat taking away my appetite morning and night, I heard that Ashley Queens Magok branch(애슐리퀸즈 마곡점) had launched its new fall menu early. I headed over right away and decided to share how everything tasted. 🍁 Stepping into Early Fall Flavors at Ashley Queens Magok As soon as I walked through the…
I booked a trip to Sapporo with one goal in mind: seeing the lavender fields with a friend. Then, the day after we arrived, the famous Sapporo Beer Festival kicked off. With beer gardens stretching along Odori Park right in front of our accommodation, there was no way we could just walk past. We ended…
I recently had a reason to visit Hyundai Department Store in Bucheon, so I headed up to the restaurant floor on the 8th level for dinner and spotted 광화문미진 (a famous Michelin-recognized buckwheat noodle restaurant). I’d already tried the flagship branch before, so I knew it well as a spot known for its cool, chewy…
I wanted a hearty meat-focused dinner near Gangnam, so I stopped by 카츠쇼신 강남점 (Katsu Shoshin’s Gangnam branch). It was already well known as one of Seoul’s four great tonkatsu spots and a brand created by a Michelin chef, so I’d been curious about it for a while. I went in without overly high expectations,…
These days, the tropical nights and extreme heat have been tough. Yesterday happened to be Jungbok, the middle of the hottest summer period. On days like this, a lot of people head out to indoor shopping complexes to stay comfortable. So today, I wanted to share my visit to 장독대김치찜김치찌개 (a Korean restaurant specializing in…
Today I stopped by 메이드인시카고피자 덕수궁점 (Chicago-style pizza restaurant near Deoksugung), right across from City Hall Station. I got to dig into a hearty deep-dish pizza while looking out over the Deoksugung Stonewall Walk. The generous amount of cheese stood out right away, and the clear view outside made the meal enjoyable for both the…
After spending time at nothing but ultra-modern cafes, there are days when an old-school retro vibe suddenly sounds appealing, aren’t there? Today, I stopped by 피롤츠 커피하우스 시청점 (retro-style coffeehouse near City Hall Station). With its classic old coffeehouse-inspired interior, sweet desserts, and great coffee, it turned out to be a charming spot. Here’s my…
