Pretty Seoul... Samcheongdong and Yeouido ^^

I love walking through Samcheongdong (삼청동) at night. It's pretty and charming and always gives me an excuse to whip out the camera. But other than the famous sujebi restaurant and a cafe or two, I hadn't actually been there to eat in a while, until we recently checked out a cozy little Italian wine bar called Romanee Conti. I don't normally eat seafood, but the mussels were so perfectly cooked I couldn't resist. ^^



Another place with a nice view is Yeouido (여의도). While chilling along the Han River's always fun, drinks up top the 63 Building offer a pretty decent sky view (at least, a lot better than Top Cloud). But something seems to be missing from Seoul... a skyline?

Fishies and hofs

The lovely Malesa & Tim are in town.



Wanting to show them a "typical" hof experience (after a proper dak kalbi introduction), we stopped by a place that was a little too nice to convey the normal hof-like atmosphere - i.e. it was very clean, relatively quiet, well air-conditioned, and they were constantly giving us free food, haha. Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the place, but it's in the same building as Sweets Cafe and the mini video game arcade in Sinchon. (I wouldn't mind checking it out again, thanks to Anna for the rec. ^^)



Completely stuffed, we forged on - troopers that we are - to a random wooden hof nearby. Aha! Watered down beer pitchers, lingering cigarette smells, stale cereal, and yummy kimchee pajun - we found what we were looking for! ; )



And some other adventures told in pictures...
*Edit: I just realized I obviously can't spell "building" as you might notice in the collages below, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it so let's just move on. : )
