Over the years, I have had so many people ask me for travel tips in Seoul such as where to go, what to eat and how to get around the city. So I have decided to write it down here
Jung Sik Dang – Excellent Mod-Korean Restaurant In Seoul
I love Korean food. Whenever I visit Korea, I have it for breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner. This is the reason why my husband rarely travels with me to Korea on my annual trips – he does not enjoy spicy Korean
Seoul: Cha Masineun Tteul Teahouse In Bukchon
I enjoy walking around the Bukchon and Samcheong-dong area, looking at the old hanoks, some of which are still residential property while others have been converted into shops. It is a place where the old juxtaposes against the new –
Seoul: Blüte Cafe In Hongdae
I have seen Blüte being featured on a number of travel and lifestyle blogs as a beautiful garden-themed cafe in Seoul. I have never been there so during the November trip to Seoul, I dropped by Blüte on an early
Seoul: Gwangjang Market
So glad to be typing away in this blog again. Something went wrong at the back-end of my blog on Christmas Eve and it has taken me over a month to get it up and running again, including moving the website
Seoul: Namusairo Coffee in Gwanghwamun
If you are in the Gwanghwamun/Gyeongbokgung neighborhood and looking for excellent coffee in a charming hanok-setting, Namusairo Coffee is the place to head to. I love the vibe of this space, and the wood-panels are gorgeous. I was so charmed
Seoul: Chawoongga In Hongdae
I had lunch in Chawoongga, a restaurant housed in this beautiful hanok with a courtyard garden in hippy Hongdae. The restaurant serves traditional Korean food such as bibimbap, soups and stews. Initially, I wanted to brave the cold and eat my meal in the beautiful
Seoul: Yukdaejang In Myeongdong
I am so pleased to have found an excellent yukgaejang restaurant in Myeongdong (near the main road where Shinsaegae is). I love eating Korean spicy beef soup, especially the wild vegetables that go into the soup. I have not tried a
Seoul: Dumulmeori In Yangpyeong
People always ask me why I don’t get bored visiting Seoul at least once every year. Somehow, I always manage to find something new to do, or a new place to visit. I never seem to run out of things to
Seoul: Coffee Libre In Hongdae
I have finally tried the coffee from Coffee Libre after putting it off for a while (‘cos it is quite a hike away from the popular area in Hongdae). It is not an easy place to find and I got lost
Seoul: Wangbijib Korean BBQ In Myeongdong
I often get asked for Korean BBQ restaurant recommendations in Seoul but have none to give because this is something that I don’t normally eat when I am in Seoul. If I have grilled meat cravings, I would usually go
Seoul: Ricotta Cheese Salad At Cafe Mamas
On my way to Samcheong-dong to hunt for clothes (work dresses, casual tops, kimono cardigans, shoes, costume jewelry) one morning, I walked past Cafe Mamas, a popular cafe near the Cheongyecheon stream. I have gone past this cafe many times
Seoul: Themed Cafe Needle Story – A Knitting Cafe In Edae
Note: NeedleStory does not seem to be at Edae. I couldn’t see the store at this address when I last visited in 2017. Sadly, I have been neglecting my blog of late. After taking a short break in Seoul at
