Walking around Gyeongbukgong Palace, N Seoul Tower and the shopping
streets of Dongdaemun
drained me so much that I almost fainted. Then I realized, I wasn’t really
tired… I was hungry. After convincing my mom and sister to stop shopping,
we finally got out of the shopping mall and headed to… the tourist information
center and asked for a nice place to eat. And the friendly staff mentioned Food Café. So off we go to the place
they say that serve yummy Japanese dishes.
Hello, Food Café!
This simple food joint is
located near the line of malls of Dongdaemun and the Dongdaemun subway station.
And since it has a nice location, it was a bit packed with hungry night owls
when we got there. Luckily, we easily got seats (and a table of course!).
After browsing the menu, we
decided to go with Cheese in Pork Cutlet
(7,000 ₩), Seafood
Udon
(6,000 ₩) and Vegetable Kimbap
(3,000 ₩).
Service was quick and first
served was the plate of cutlet.
It looked like your usual
crunchy pork cutlet
but each bite was delightfully cheesy. The melted cheese sure made this katsu
a happy pill for the tummy.
I was looking forward to the
seafood
udon
as I was freezing that night! And it did not fail me at all. It was served piping
hot and it definitely warmed me, especially my tummy.
