This was supposedly not on the list for this trip but when I saw the address and it was quite near Vetiver I decided to add it and have dinner here!
We walked heading here but if you will be riding the subway here, I think the closest one is Konkuk University exit 6. Seongsu stop is a bit far.
Going back, it was a 17-minute walk from Vetiver and I just followed Naver Maps to guide me.
Initially, we got kicked out (istg this trip was full of kicked out or closed for the day – make sure to always ALWAYS check the restaurant on Naver) since the only available table was already reserved. While I was trying to look for a different restaurant outside the restaurant, they called us in asking if it was okay for us to share a table just in case the person came and of course, we said yes 😭.
This was the only thing on their menu
So we got the first two on the menu: the Sirlion and Hanwoo short ribs and rice (not on the menu).
I was trying to find NCT signatures since they posted it on their Instagram post and it was near the drink fridge.
all photos were taken using an iPhone 13 Pro Max / Fujifilm X-T20 18-55 mm
While paying, the owner asked me if I was an NCT fan and I said yes! He said, “I see, that’s why (you ate here)”. I told him I like Johnny and he said “ahh, he’s handsome” 🥹 If you’re ever in the area, come by! Just make sure to take note that the place is small so there might be a chance you will not get seated. There’s also no machine to enter to queue.
Watch my Seoul travel film here!
