Western-style Korean
Western food has been localized in Seoul over decades, emerging as something distinctly Korean in the process. Demi-glace pork cutlets, cream pasta with kimchi, and French-style brunch menus sit alongside Italian pizza and American burgers in Seoul's eclectic restaurant landscape. Many younger Korean chefs trained abroad and returned to open restaurants that blend European technique with Korean ingredients and sensibility.
Jung-gu
Jung-gu sits at the geographic and commercial center of Seoul, encompassing Myeongdong (K-beauty and street food), Namdaemun Market, and the financial district. The food here spans the full range — from tourist-facing street stalls in Myeongdong to understated lunch joints serving office workers, and traditional Korean restaurants that have operated for decades without needing to advertise.
The menu doesn't got many choices but the famous beef ribs taste fabulous!! And the dumpling is surprisingly good! Great for quick lunch or dinner after shopping around.
I’ve already been there three times, and I never get tired of galbijjim! Pairing galbijjim with cold noodles is the ultimate combination The location is on the 5th floor same building with Mcdonald. Very easy to find ☺️. Anyone considering what to eat for lunch or dinner should check this place out first.
