Welcome to Seoul in the City!
I would like to thank my avid readers and followers since 2009! I'm absolutely blessed with all the encouragement and continuous support that inspires me to keep up with my journal. I will abide with my fellow partners, and hope that 'my love affair' with food, travel and design will never cease...
As my first official post for my new site, I would like to re-introduce one of my favorites-Coffee Bangatgan-커피 방앗간 in Samchungdong. It's a treat when I go to this spot, since it's a bit far for me. Their novelty: to leave your mark, you can write notes or doodle on their custom napkins, and just tape it anywhere in the cafe...literally.
Whenever I go back, I try to look for the notes I left behind the previous time...but never can find it! Perhaps it blew away...or someone loved my note and snatched it away? hahaha...
The photos below will make you hungry...such a tease...Enjoy:)
